Insomnia

Damn it, I am awake again at the wrong time. It's 4 a.m. somewhere in the Pacific NorthWest and here I am listening to the clock tick away. Most "normal" people I am sure are sound asleep in their beds or couches or cars or campers or tents put up in some faraway unpatrolled homelessland. Of course, there are a few oddities among the normal people: some are awake abnormally just as myself, some may be studying for a class or still unwinding their day, while others are hard going at their occupation just as I would be without this night off. But here I am, abnormal, awake in my bed, wondering why would anyone read this blog. I'm a rapidly aging ICU nurse working the twelve hour night shift looking forward to easing my way out quietly…but wait!!!!!…
