3. Fast Eddie is very nocturnal. And he wants company.

He's noticed that Radar and DH are distinctly diurnal, so I'm elected. It doesn't help that my frequent insomnia reinforces this.

He grabs at my legs when I head upstairs and especially when I head towards the bedroom. Sometimes we have to ban him from the room, as he cries loudly until I roll towards the edge of the bed and pet him. Or he rattles the venetian blinds. Or he jumps up on my nightstand to play gravity games. "C'mon, Mom, there might be mice in the kitchen. A truck came down the street and you know I'm scared of them. Let's go downstairs and watch TV. I Want A Lap. Now."

Once in a while, he sleeps at night. Not often enough.
