Hi Sleepy.
Tonight I start a story and immediately question it, which feels right. There’s a woman named Constance Mallory. She has green shutters she once painted during a summer that didn’t try to be anything special. And a house that knows her. Or thinks it does.
We move slowly through rooms, through habits, through the sound a coat makes when it meets a hook. And then something is slightly off. Not dramatic. Just… misplaced. Like 5000 songs playing at once somewhere far away in the brain.
Sleepy, you don’t have to follow this. You can drift off, come back, leave again. The house will still be there, holding on to a version of someone who has already moved on.
It’s about small changes. The kind you barely notice until something echoes wrong.
Maybe you’ve changed too. Maybe the room hasn’t caught up yet.
So just lie there. Let the sounds rearrange themselves. This is your journey to sleep. A quiet, introspective wandering through memory, habit, and the strange feeling of being slightly newer than your surroundings.
It is what it is. What happens, happens. And right now, there’s nothing we can do about it.
Sleep Tight!
