Going to Sleep When You’re OldThe key is not to panic, when you get way along this trail, partner, because anything goes, including consideration of all possible scenarios of breathing a last breath upon sweet mother earth. So, pulling up the covers, turning off the light and thinking of something pleasant enough to calm any fears boiling up at the edges of consciousness, fears yelling and demanding attention till your body slowly but steadily gets electrified by those vicious catcalls working you over. What if you don't wake up, they holler? What if this is it? and they keep at it until you can't shut them out. Damn it! you growl, throwing back the covers. You sit up, turn the bedside light back on and slap an episode of old Morse on the DVD player. Then you notice your cat opening her eyes and she meows and you swear you hear her mutter in a thin, squeaky voice, Hell, another sleepless night with the old man obsessed with death. He better wakeup in the morning because breakfast is my favorite meal. He knows that!
