sleepless

I was in bed by 9pm, tired, ready to shut down the brain.


And then, my mother phoned at 9:45, which is quite late in the evening for her -

to talk about the car

and what she, my brother, my sister-in-law, and my uncle all think I should be doing

which, of course, has nothing to do with the decisions I made that I can live with.

Never let the loved ones know what you're up to.
