i’ve never been one to sleep with the fan on. especially in my room because i’ve always had the irrational (sometimes rational) fear a ceiling fan would be bound to fall on me while i slept. with the weather warming up, my room has been, too. for the past two years, i’ve realized the circulation in my room is much different than anywhere else in the house. it’s always substantially warmer. this year, i think i’ve had enough lol. i’ve been turning the fan on before i fall asleep as the only way i sleep is out of exhaustion or if i’m a little chilly. it was a little cold last night, so i opted not to turn on the fan. after laying in bed for a few minutes, i had to get up to turn the fan on. within an hour of doing so, i was drifting in and out of sleep. when i woke up this morning, it hit me that i’m slowing turning into one of those people who sleeps with the fan on. maybe it’s a seasonal thing, or perhaps it’s just a thing these days.
the true test will be what happens when the winter comes.
