Sleepy

Why does having a good cry make you so sleepy? There must be a physiological reason for it.

Went home at lunchtime because He had a bizarre hunch that The Cheque may have arrived (it's supposed to be on its way, long story). On the doormat, sure enough, was a letter addressed to me that wasn't recognisable as a bill or otherwise. Tore it open, only to find that it wasn't The Cheque, and bizarrely that made me burst into tears. And we're not talking about restrained girly crying, we're talking full on, can't breathe, head splitting sobbing.

It was over in about five minutes, which is actually quite a long time when you're crying, and I was left feeling cleansed but exhausted. You know the feeling, yes? Except of course that rather than curling up and going to sleep, I had to come back to work.

I'm a zombie. A puffy eyed zombie.

Bloody Him and His 'hunch'.
