Well, this is embarrassing. I made a commitment to getting to bed earlier but have not kept it. My sleep habits are terrible, so I try to read a lot about it, looking for clues that will help me fix the problem. And like a lot of what I read, it ended up here with another post about sleep.
I was so tired when I wrote it. The irony of the topic wasn’t lost on me, and I felt guilty, writing about bad sleep habits at 2 a.m. or whatever it was in a stupor, unable to keep my head up and my eyes open.
A reader named Cathy sent an e-mail, a kindly worded e-mail, about the misspelled words, and I was shocked to see them. Not only am I a terrible typist when sleepy, I was so out of it I forgot to spell check, something I never forget, period.
I made a joke out of it, told her I did it on purpose, but it was a mistake – a huge mistake – caused by persistent fatigue. I often say that I don’t have any problems that $40,000 and a good night’s sleep wouldn’t cure, but I need a lot of good nights in a row.
