Sleeping Together

a typical night cosleeping with babe

Somebody’s whining. probably my baby. it’s immediate now: the acknowledgement of reality. it’s still dark in my eyes. are they closed or open? oh, right, “here, baby.” put it in her mouth. Fill the lungs. Empty the lungs. alright, what was i doing? oh, right, sleeping. but, what time is it? OH, that’s bright: 01:50. wonder if anyone texted me…unlock. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. oh, gosh, my eyes. 02:47. how did i end up on instagram? wonder if somebody texted me…swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. swipe. low power mode: 20%. 03:02. not again. let’s put this on the charger. great. Fill the lungs. Empty the lungs. alright; sleeping. but what about this? and what about that? and all this over here. and, don’t forget all that over there. remember that time! what a time. my hip hurts. she’s asleep. roll over. ahhh, much better… how ‘bout this? and how 'bout that? all this over here. all that over there. remember that — SHUT UP! i’m trying to go to sleep. fill the lungs. empty half the lungs. fill the lungs. empty half the lungs. Fill the lungs. Empty the lungs. ok. ok. I welcome peace into all corners of my life. I welcome peace into all corners of my life. I love and approve of myself. I love and approve of myself. thank you. thank you. thank you. dozing off……………………………………………………..

ow, babe, that’s my rib. here she goes with the whining. “Here, babe.” put it in her mouth. i’m just gonna check the time. 05:35. closing my eyes. the light is coming. i should get my day started now. but, then i’ll be tired. i’m going back to sleep.

SMACK! SMACK! SMACK! SMACK! SMACK! ok. i’m up. mmmmm. i’d rather go back to sleep. it’s probably 8-something. yup. i’m not getting out of bed until 9. “Good morning, my love. Good morningggggggg.” she’s so cute. “Hi.” “haaaiieeeee” she’s so funny. and so cute. and i will eat her. “I will eat you! nom nom nom…” what a cute laugh. “nom nom nom. nom nom nom nom.” i could cuddle her forever.

THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
