Cogito, Ergo Sumana for 2005 July 14 (entry 0)

# 14 Jul 2005, 02:49AM: Stayin' Awake: When I wake up very early, I wonder whether I can get back to sleep. Sometimes a cup of water or trip to the loo will do it, sometimes daydreaming will. But what doesn't help: hearing the following sounds from the street:

1. firework or gunshot
2. only a second later, a second identical sound
3. car driving away from said sounds

So I called 911 and made my calm, lucid report, and now I am definitely awake. Time to write.
