    i wake up every night at 1am and fall back asleep at 2:15ish. if i could fall asleep in the first place

    growing up the train went by at 1. it was far enough away that it didn’t fully wake me up, but my circadians synced to it. when i moved out of the home for college I started waking up because I didn’t hear it and it took me until i went back home the first break i actually went home, I don’t remember which, and i slept again. i stayed up just because and at 1 there was a train. suddenly i it was obvious.

    my parents eventually moved across town. far enough away that you couldn’t hear the train at night. when i moved in with my parents to help dad die peacefully and comfortably and to help ease the burden on mom, i noticed he was up every night at 1 too. funny how things work. it’s been 25 years now and i’m still doing it.

    every jump forward, i have an “OH FUCK HOW LONG HAVE I BEEN AWAKE” at 315
