Love that Ambien

I take ambien often at night to fall asleep. I used to take it, then hang out with Jacob, get on the computer, make phone calls etc until it kicked in, then I'd head off to bed. I had too many experiences where I did things, posted things, called people, that I had absolutely NO memory of the next day, so I started taking it directly before I climbed into bed. It usually only takes a few minutes to kick in. Last night I got in bed (without ambien) and pulled out my journal. I found this entry, written the night before, presumably by me, but I have no memory of writing this at all.


"Right now, I am happy. I am content. In this moment, I want for nothing. I guess my thighs are a little flabby....I'm ok with that though. They carry me. They carry my body everywhere it needs to go, day after day after day, so I love my legs.

My marriage is good. Jacob is hardworking and loyal. He adores me and our girls. It is important to him that we are happy and that he does everything within his power to ensure that happiness.

Violet is Funny.

Lucy is incredibly sweet and smart.

Jacob is my lover, my partner, my handsome friend. I've got it good."


Obviously, ambien puts me in a pretty good mood.
