I have a question for you. I know that you’ve mentioned many times that MrHP is very concerned with the clock and with your SL affecting his sleep. What I do recall hearing is how much sleep MrHP needs and/or how much he gets.
Obviously, as the HD in our R, I have a hard time imagining being too tired to ML or too worried about getting enough sleep to put off ML when I have an E and an eager W right there next to me. But I also have to admit that sleep is a big issue with me as well. I’m chronically sleep deprived. My normal day begins around 04:00 and I seldom make it to bed (much less to sleep) before 22:30. Add it up: I usually only get about five to five and a half hours of sleep per night.
If I wasn’t quite so sex-starved and if I knew that W would be equally available and willing “next time”, then I can see the potential for me ignoring the E and turning down ML in favor of getting to sleep. Right now, I would gladly give up the extra sleep to ML. But if I knew that I could ML virtually any time I wanted to, I can see that in the sitch you’ve described, I just might choose sleep.
