3:18

I thought I woke up at 3:18am because I’d had a glass of red wine before bed; always a harbinger of patchy sleep. But as my eyes fully opened, so did my ears. The downstairs neighbors were definitely watching Speed (trust me, if you heard it, you’d think so too), and they definitely got a new subwoofer, and I felt like I was as good as on the couch right next to the encroaching, night-owl viewers. Would have been fun if I’d actually been invited.
