Asphalt Dreams

They are repaving the road in front of my house. The dogs are not happy with the noise. But oddly, I got six hours of solid sleep in spite of the noise. Maybe because of the noise. Other than that annoying beeping when trucks back up, it’s all been a steady hum and/or roar, and I like noise when I’m sleeping.

Except music. If music–or even the TV–is playing while I’m sleeping, it makes my dreams too freaky.

  1. The single easiest way for me to get a full night’s sleep is to sleep with the window open when it rains. Sussurus seems to knock me right into the deepest sleep I can have.

    1. The best sound I ever heard was the rain on the tin roof over my grandfather’s spare bedroom. There was also a featherbed in there. Now THAT was some good sleepin’.

      1. Thank you for not making fun of my extra ‘s.’

        I’ve never actually slept on a featherbed. Hrm. I need to add that to my list, I think.

        1. I didn’t know there was an extra “s.” I’d never heard of the word “susurus” (or “sussurus”)! Today you have increased my vocabulary. Thanks! =)
