I woke at about 2:30 in the seventy-degree A.M. today, thinking deeply about something really that feels important.

It’s a Wednesday, so my mandatory chore is going and collecting the trash can from the curb once they empty it.

There’s always cat care too.

But beyond these minor time-sensitive to-do items, the only thing I seriously care about accomplishing is staying energetic for the next 17 hours or so

and hitting the bed again tired enough to sleep deeply once more

into the same cool hours, but of Thursday.
