Dawn Patrol

somebody help me, please. it's 6:14 (a.m.) and much too early for me to be up and moving around. you see, i had to take a. to the airport this morning at a most ungodly hour. we woke at 3:30, left the house at 4:00, got to the airport at 5:00, and now a. is probably taking off in her 6:15 flight to florida. this is harsh. can't remember when i've been up so early, but i do remember that i don't like it very much.

now i'm wondering what the hell to do. i feel too wretched to do anything remotely thought-provoking. i could take a walk, or i could just go back to bed and sleep the morning away. the latter option sounds the most promising.

one positive note from my dawn patrol: watching the sky change from a black, starry background into a muted purple-ish yellow was nice. i like the colors of morning, just as dawn is breaking.
