Wake me up before you go go

dotintheskyI woke up at 5am. As much as I tried I couldn't go back to sleep. The house was cold so I tried to hug Kevin. He hugged me for a while then he let go. As usual, unwanted thoughts paraded in front of my eyes, my body grew uncomfortable and I became too alert.
Finally, I got up, grabbed my novel, my glasses, the saturday paper, and headed for the bathtub. I made myself a tall glass of Earl Grey with milk and sugar and soaked myself in the water for an hour. I read about Shelley's death by drowning, the mythology around his young death (created by his friends and his wife Mary Shelley), his cremation by the sea.
Once Kevin was up, we packed a large suitcase with more books, DVDs and tapes and carried it to the new apartment. The place still smells of paint - but it's so lovely! There were birds perched on our roof terrace, puffed up against the cold. If I were a bird watcher, I would be moving into paradise.
