That odd feeling

4:30am I can't sleep. I awoke about an hour ago when my phone rang. While it was ringing I saw that there was a message left by someone else. Dazed. I retrieved the message and it was mom letting me know that she got my test text message earlier in the night. I still had no idea what time it was at this point. Then The phone beeped again as the call that just came in had left a message as well. This time it was Tracy. She didn't sound awake--or well. We share a brain. It seems to be the law that one half of the brain must suffer while the other half is feeling good. Still not completely awake I realize that it's the 3 o'clock hour and try to go back to sleep. I can't. I need to. I must.
