Time passes and sometime in early morning, I'm jolted awake by some sort of falling sensation. I jump and wake up in a cold sweat. I must have had a bad dream, but I don't remember what it was. I awake with a knot in my throat and a tightness in my chest again. I glance over at the clock and the time reads 5:47 am. We've been asleep for maybe 3 hours, give or take. I'm a little rattled now so slowly, I crawl out of bed, moving slowly so I don't wake you and wander into the bathroom, taking a clean shirt with me so I can change. I look at myself in the mirror and groan at my appearance, which looks to me as less than favourable. I splash some water on my face and lean over the sink to try to get myself to snap out of it. I'm still exhausted but I don't feel like sleeping anymore.
