Not Gonna Be Fun

Sleep right now is impossible.

Outside, it sounds like a never-ending freight train going by. But unlike a train, this noise lacks all sense of rhythm that could help put you to sleep.

Instead, it crashes down in uneven waves.

I’d say we’re under a high wind warning ‘bout now. And I wouldn’t be surprised if those “gusts” were around 80 mph, while the sustained wind seems to be about 30.

Needless to say, it’s rather difficult to sleep when the tree outside your window is creaking non-stop, when the windows rattle every couple of seconds, when you can feel the gust through the cracks in the wall, when your eyes burn from the dust in the air, and you can feel the walls vibrate.

I’m so glad I have to get up to go to work in only four hours…
