Top 5 Things to do at 4am at a women's shelter

1. Eat fruit. The bread is all donated and frozen, and the rest of the food is a little sketchy. Fruit is always good. So is coffee. Even when it's the cheapest coffee ever. 4am makes one a little desperate.
2. Think of a song and pretend you are listening to it to drown out the quietness of being the only person awake in a huge house.
3. Read up on all the brochures about the effects of different drugs, community services available, how to find a job, etc.
4. Do, yet another, room check...just to make sure everyone is indeed breating. Gotta love shining a flashlight on someone and disturbing their sleep every single hour.
5. Look at the clock once more and determine how much time has passed since the last time you looked, and how much longer it will be until you get to finally cuddle up and drift into dremland yourself.
...1 hour, 45 minutes....

Comments:
I was going to suggest a pillow fight. But after thinking twice, I realized that might seem...inappropriate?
