4:30

the second night, up again, this time with sirens, seemingly never-ending. turns out it was a big tenement fire just down the road in Chinatown, two people killed, way more devastated. awful, sad, tragic.

but then… almost every night since then. more than three weeks now. 4:30-ish on the dot. after daylight savings? 5:30-ish. maybe i should just start getting up, go to the gym early.
