Sleepless once more.

Some time ago I discovered audiobooks. Lying in bed suddenly became less frightening, insomnia a little less annoying when I let me self be read to on cd. But, as the local library had about six shelves of books on cassette and asssuming that only one-tenth of the total library has books that I find interesting, I ran out of possible books quite soon.

A couple weeks ago the monthly paper from the ME club brought my attention to the Dutch Library for Blind and other people with reading problems. A whole library filled with audiobooks! Books for when I would be too tired to read, books for when I was too scared, books for in bed, books and books!

To read the books I would require a special player, for sale from threehundred euro's and up. But, while my insurance company is thinking about whether they should or should not give me such a device, there was a computerprogram. For free. So I immediately ordered Pyramids, from Terry Pratchett.

Last week it came in. In bright yellow cd cases. And the computerprogram, allthough talking to me, did not much of reading at all, but the cd's could be played in a regular mp3player. So now I can let myself be read to sleep every night.

Only... I find the book thát funny that I keep giggling instead of falling asleep...
