6:30am

Last night found me tossing and turning and mumbling as I slept, plagued by nightmares. Forcing myself to leave the (relative) comfort of my bed was not an easy task this morning. The walk to the bus stop is usually a nice one, though. The sun hasn't yet managed to dissipate the coolness of the night, and the neighborhood is quiet but for the morning birds.

I am not the most patriotic of individuals, but I am definitely thankful for the mid-week holiday Independence Day will be giving me. I will NOT be seeing 6:30 tomorrow morning, YAY!

This is on the east side of the metro area, in Aurora.
