It’s 1 AM and I have now been awake for 39 hours straight for a reason that involves zip codes and home sale prices and that’s about all that is worth mentioning. What I have is not exactly synesthesia, but I do have an acutely aware sense of smell, especially of those things that are on the not so pleasing end of the sensory scale. I keep smelling bad flatulence, cat piss, rotting corpses…
I am starting to think of this like some of my friends think of detox diets, lemonade fasts, confession, etc. It’s been years since I last stayed up all night, and that time it was writing and recording a bad song. This time it was a bad map. But I do feel like I a resetting my clock. Tonight was one of my most relaxed in recent memory. I felt like most of the synapses were firing properly, so I went to see a baseball game. The boys of summer in this here town put up numbers that would have won all of their recent scoreless games.
I stepped into a pile of melting summer bubble gum today that is still collecting gravel on my out-of-season boots.
I should learn how to dress better for this weather.
The words “I love you” can save a life.
I will sleep like a baby tonight.
