Time for bed. Water, check. Headphones, check. Selenite crystal, check. Incense, check. Lights out, check. Fuzzy blanket, check. Off to dreamland, che……..not so fast. Too much thinking. Too many memories. Ok, so I’ll check Telegram, see if anything’s happening. Chat post or two. Ok, you’ve got to sleep now. Maybe some music. Ok, let’s see. Ok, that’s a good one, that one too. Add to my playlist. This one has a good beat. Fake dancing to the beat under the blanket. Off goes the blanket, hey this song’s good too. Ok so make a whole playlist. Well no sleeping tonight. Thinking, trying not to think. Trying to make the memories go away. Just get up til the sleep comes. Oh that’s a good song too. Dancing alone in the dark literally at 2am on a weeknight. Ok, you’ve lost it now. Well, maybe a nightcap. Jack and Coke. Yeah that’ll work. Back to the music. Inspiration to write. Writing a blog post at 2:24 am. The story of life getting in the way of sleep. Why am I here and what do I do next? Important questions to be answered, why did I ever think I could sleep?? More things to try not to think about. They’re just memories right? Don’t acknowledge them, they’ll go away. Yep, not so much. Maybe writing about them will help. Long story short for another day. Not tonight. Tonight there’s too much going on not sleeping.
