Thank God you brought up the lying in bed thinking about a model. Thought I was the only one who did that. By the time morning rolls around I have figured out any problems I may have had with the model the day before. Ditto: family thinks I’ve lost it.
my wife listens to me ramble on but I think she also uses hard to detect ear plugs.
