“I couldn't sleep last night. It was
kind of funny, actually. I was tired, delirious, but I couldn't get
to sleep. At one point, I asked myself, 'Is there anything I need to
think about before I can get to sleep? Is there some kind of
necessary prerequisite thought process I need to go through before
I'll be able to fall asleep?' I took a step back and realized the
absurdity of what I was asking myself. The answer was no, obviously.
There's no checklist required for sleeping. The funny thing is, that
answer actually surprised me. That there was no work required
to actually be able to get to sleep. In fact, it genuinely made me
happy. Sleep is goddamn beautiful, isn't it? Sleep the only thing you
need to do while you're asleep, the only thing you need to worry
about.”
Milo had had an eyebrow raised throughout most of the rant, but now he relaxed and responded, “Yeah, it is a pretty pleasing thing.”
Simon shrugged. “Still couldn't get to sleep, though.”
