Must be one of those copyright images...but the gist was:

If you hear steps at 6am its your other half.

If you hear steps at 4am its probably this fellow:

That looks like a guy I used to work for. Probably the same disposition too.

I love reading in bed, but as soon as I open a book my eyes become heavy... Anyone got a trick how to avoid that?

I have the same problem. There should be an answer somewhere.

Maybe 10 or 15 cups of hot strong coffee.

I wake up about 2 am in the morning and everything I haven't done is running through my mind. The only thing I can do to escape it is pick up my current book and read until I forget about all those remaining things to do. When I hit a slow spot in the book I seem to get a little bored and nod back off to sleep. Beats taking pills or drinking. B.

I like to read in bed if it's mid-afternoon and I'm not really tired. I always find that when I try to read at night, I get too sleepy about five pages in and have to put the book down. When that happens, I also risk not comprehending anything that I read. Doesn't matter how good the book is, I just can't do it.

So, my favorite places to read are in the front room of my apartment - affectionately dubbed "Meganarium" or on my back porch.

I used to, but we've no headboard and there's no reading light.

The reading light I have which attaches to a book is useless.

So no more reading in bed...for now.

Read using your smartphone - you can download books from the library or websites. It's lit so you can see and you can change the size of the text.

I have quite a little library in bed, next to the bed and under the bed, so if I am reading a book and suddenly feel I am not in the mood for it, I always have an alternative. Been reading in bed since I was a teenager.
