Misty
My refrigerator makes a soft gurgling noise, and it sounds like people are talking on the other side of the wall. But there are no people on the other side of the wall, so maybe I have ghosts, and they're talking about me! Just what I need.
For much of the night, the rain turned to a soft, cold mist of the sort that sneaks up on you. You stay out in it for a while, and suddenly feel water dripping down your neck and realize that your hair has become saturated. I did that thing. It called for more tea with which to warm up, and I drank it too late and now it's almost morning and I'm not sleepy at all. So it goes. I'm going to bed anyway. Otherwise, I'll start a project of some sort, and never get done. Better to lie awake doing nothing but listening to the cat purr.
