Ain't I cheerful

It was very quiet at the pub yesterday, In fact I was the only customer for most of the night, so I had a bash on the keyboard and played a few games of scrabble with the landlord and landlady. Whenever I play scrabble I think of my friend who is no longer with us, as we had many happy games together.
I went to bed at about 1am and slept very badly. I kept waking up with my brain in overdrive and my foot tapping. I got up at 7.25am, having woken up with the alarm at 7.15. My neck and shoulders ache from all the twisting and turning, and my right shin and foot ache from all the tapping. I feel like I've just had a spell on the rack. I feel very tired from all the uncontrolled mental activity. I expect I might feel a bit better once I've taken my tablets. In all honesty I would much rather stay at home than go to work today. Of course I will do what I must.
