3 A.M.
I couldn't sleep at all tonight or was it considered morning already? I've been debating about this since for who knows how long, I certainly don't. Afterall, I've been laying here on my bed just estimating the time due to my laptop and cellphone being far away from me. And yes, I consider something far when these said objects are over five feet away from me.It didn't help that my watch was broken. I assumed that it was three since the hand was pointed at the third tick. Yes, my watch does not have any numbers, just a tick to state what the current passage of time is.
So, in my mind, I deduced that it must be three am, which means it is morning right?But lately the weather has been chilly and hot at the same time. How was that even possible? Ok, well it's entirely possible but st---.
Why was I checking the weather again? Oh, right to determine the time. I could check the windows yet this also poses a problem. I didn't have a window.
I groaned.
I weighed the pros and cons for standing up and reaching for my cellphone. The pros; I could stop this debate that is driving me crazy about the time.
What were the cons?
I could make an excuse that would make me not want to sleep as I am a busy person afterall. Ok, not really. I'm really not. Either way I couldn't sleep knowing and not knowing what time it was.
First world problems are complicated.
Decisions are simple.Or was it the other way around?
