Not everyone wakes up

We’ve reached yet another anniversary of the Twin Towers collapsing and I was thinking, “Hey, this feels like a good night to go to bed early.” Then I thought, “I ought to write at least a short entry since it’s 9/11 and I want to pay my respects to the deceased and their loved ones.” The internal debate didn’t last very long—I might have a harder time staying awake during work tomorrow, but I’ll be awake and it’ll be tomorrow. A lot of people had that opportunity burned out of their hands in a giant fireball seven years ago.

So before crawling under the covers and breathing heavily until my alarm goes off in the morning (people say I snore, but I know they’re lying…), I want to thank the Powers that Be for my covers, my alarm, my (lack of) snoring… and thank them most of all for 9/12. Sleep well, everyone.
