dimanche 03.12.06 Snooze on booze

I sleep until 14,00. I’ve nothing else to do. Hang on… I’ve classes to prepare. One fry later I’m drawing my ideal village; we’re continuing with professions so I’ve decided to draw a factory, hospital, church, building site, shop, post office, hotel and restaurant to keep the children going and to keep me awake. Sketching may be a good way to shake off a hangover but colouring is sure to bring on a headache. Ahh! Bright colours. Hideous highlighters. Ghastly crayons. Actually the longer I spend with the paper, pencils and pens the more intricate the drawings come and I have to STOP before my head explodes. I make some tickets with the names of different countries to use for the second half of my class. I assemble my supports and eventually settle down for some snippets of sleep. I don’t know why I can’t get to sleep but I wake at intervals… It’s not long until I hear Arlette’s high-pitched morning nattering and Nicola rustling about in the kitchen. 15 more minutes in bed. Now 10. Then 2ZZZZzzzz. Oh, two more… then snore….
