So I’m the only one in my house who stayed in town last night, on account of being exhausted and not really wanting to get home at midnight. A 5 person house is kind of creepy when you’re all alone! The house is old and makes weird creaking noises, and when the furnace shuts off and there’s no white noise is becomes eerily silent. But my lack of sleep the last few weeks really helped, because I fell asleep about 5 minutes after my head hit the pillow. And I slept pretty well.
Except for when I woke up to the gunshot at 4 am. Oh, did I not mention the shooting 4 blocks from my house? Not that I was ever in any danger, since it sounds like some argument at a stupid party just got out of control, but it’s still exhausting hearing about these incidents.
This town, man. I know the city is so much more dangerous but I still can’t wait to get out of here permanently.
