@mulderc I almost feel like going for an early morning walk or something...is that weird? #afterhours or maybe it should be #beforehours?

@writeinmovement who needs sleep? #afterhours

Just thought about how weird it will be if my ex ever visits me in Portland. It would be surreal at first, but I wish it would happen.

Kimberly
I don't really want to sleep, but I realize I have to. Sigh... #afterhours
