Backassward

Never has there been a truer use of this word than what I've been fighting with for the last few months. The true irony is that it has taken me YEARS to realize I was doing the following.

I crawl into bed and lay on my side facing the center of the bed; I'm laying on my right side. In a few minutes I am unable to lay that way any longer and HAVE to roll over.

Sometimes I'll roll to my other side, most nights I will roll to my tummy. The funny part is that I can NOT force myself to roll directly from my right side to my tummy. I will scoot further into the bed and roll from my right side to my back, to my left side, to my tummy. Even if I stop on my left side for a while, I'll end up on my tummy.

But every night for the last few months this has been my sleeping habbit when I go to bed. I've even tried laying down on my tummy or my left side first and it doesn't work. I HAVE to lay down on my right side first, then roll over 3/4 of the way to my tummy to sleep.

If that isn't a backassward way of getting to sleep I don't know what is.

I feel like a dog making circles before I lay down, a little to close to the 'animal' within for me.
