For as long as I can remember I’ve slept with my TV on. Occasionally music, but for the most part the television is what rocks me to sleep at night. I can remember back in elementary school I’d get in trouble for falling asleep with it on. My mother couldn’t understand why on earth, once I felt myself dozing off I wouldn’t just turn it off.
Instead I would be awakened by a hit on my leg or pillow accompanied by her piercing words “get up and turn this TV off before I throw it out the window”. She even once bought me a corded button being sold in the back of some magazine. All I had to do when I felt my eyes getting heavy was to press the button but it never happened.
See, the problem was that once I got up to turn off the television then I was no longer sleepy. So I would get up and turn it back on. But my mother couldn’t stand for that electricity bill to be increasing while I slept.
Now here I am at the tender age of 24 still battling silent sleep. My bedroom TV finally went home to electronic heaven. For a minute I tried to convince myself that I didn’t need a TV in my boudoir anyway. And since then I’ve been on my sofa for at least 9 months… Except the last 3 nights, I have been reintroducing myself to my 400 thread counts.
Granted I’m blasting the TV from the other room, but I’m getting there… One day at a time…
*** My friend told me don’t lie about my age. And I thought I was being facetious with “tender age.” Besides you guys know I’m 22…. Kidding again…
