Jetlag

I keep waking up in the middle of the night, like now, completely disoriented. I don’t know where I am - what country, what city, what house, what room - and I don’t know who I’m sharing a room with. I had dinner with Julia tonight, who lives maybe a five minute drive away, but just now when I woke up, and as I fumbled for the direction I thought my phone was in, I was concerned that the light from it might wake her up. Then it was a matter of working backward…I don’t think she lives in this room, or this floor, or this house…and where is this house?

Anyway I’m getting sick of this constant dizziness, waking up between 1 and 5am, and no sense of who or where I am.

she had a messy bedroom on the edge of town.
