My Morning

2.45am this morning:
I call the hotel reception to request a wake-up call for 5.15am. I need to be in a cab by 5.30am.

3.15am:
I am lying lie in bed, trying to get to sleep. Things are worse.

3.16am:
I have passed the "one hour and something till I have to wake up" barrier. I am still awake.

5.15am:
I receive the wake-up call and try to sound fresh and cheery when I answer ... just to see if I can.

Today tastes like stomach flavoured mothballs.
