I'm an incredibly light sleeper and the city usually keeps me awake... but this weekend I am the cottage (the Reserve just north of here is completely covered by wireless, and I'm just in range here on the deck).
The cottage is usually very relaxing, and I usually catch up on my sleep... but the thing is right now I can hear two competing parties, sorry make that three... across the bay is the "Dock hippies" high as kites "jamming" on their guitars trying to pick-up the chicks next door (they'd have a better chance if they washed... or at least swam abit to cut the grease); down the shoreline are the spoiled kids from Woodbridge being loud, drunk, and obnoxious as per usual; and just a little further down are the "boys" from North Carolina whooping it up and shooting off fireworks (I hope) in a drunken and stoned blowout before heading back down south for school...
So here I am typing away online while working on translating some Bede
