A Story by Kathryn Smith
"

My mind is a character and she likes to bug me at night...

"

Kit kat ! - it's nearly 1 am.


Why are you still up?


What are you doing?


Is it lust? 


Wanderlust?  


Is it that dream you dreamed?


The one that made you not want to dream again?


Is it that man?


You know who I'm talking about..


The hunky one.


No. Not him, the other guy.


No. Not Dan you dimwit...FOCUS!


Your lover.


Yeeaaahhh hiiimmmm.


He's so hot.


Haah wink wink


Nudge nudge.


Dammmn girl!


How many lovers do you have??!


Oh.


Oh..right.


Wow.


Youre a w***e.


LOL! Just kiiddiiinnnggg!


Nah. He's cool.   


Okay.


I wont tell anyone!


Why are you always so hungry late at night?


That mango ice cream is THE BEST.


Why do we want Indian food so much?


Why do soft blankets make you want to have a child?


I mean come one Kathryn - we discussed this earlier.


Do you really want to push a human being out of your va jay jay?


Giiirrrrlll!


Well..what are you going to do with your life?


Was it really smart to say that Kathryn?


No, you cant be a stripper.


Have some more respect for yourself.


Don't worry about a thing girl, you'll be fine.


You are so loved..


and yes...you should really get some shut eye.


Your thoughts are getting kinda weird.


I think you sneezed 50 times today.


I hate winter too.


Embrace your inner Daenerys.


Ride that dragon!! Riiiddeee!


Yeah..I cant wait for summer either.


Hey did you forget to turn the oven off?


Remember that time you walked out of the bakery telling your mom on the phone that you "dropped the cake?"


LOL


Good one!


We're so funny.


Oh and remember that lady who thought LOL meant lots of love??


And then she texted you...Grandma died lol!


And you thought you were awkward.


Hey when are you going to bug your sister about that NASA jumper?


That would look so good on you.


Wanna go to the moon?


It would be fun..


Okay. I'll be quiet.


Goodnight K.


Love you.




You know you should really go check the oven....

This interesting but good interesting. It is enjoyable to see the inner workings of the mind. It is like watching a good show about nothing. I liked it, thanks for posting.

Thanks David! :) Reading it back always makes me laugh. lol
The heat of the oven must have woke you up, the plains of pleasure haunt the night, a sweating body or a pumping vein, 1 o'clock is like an alarm to me. Hungry you say? The thirst and wild fire keep me up, and then I have no choice but KNOCK it back to sleep, got me going on this one, Im sure 1 o'clock has spun around the clock many times. It seems almost as if it never moves

Hi Kathryn. The mind sure is a conundrum, at times it will not recall what was done 5 minutes and then when you wish it to shut down, rest BAMMM,it's off. And the more you will it to quit the more alive it becomes. Really like this, but feel it my duty as a father to chastise you for "putting it about"". Tut, tut, tut......pssst jealous

Though this is supposed to be a fun piece, but I see into it deeper than it lets on.. The struggles of keeping on with life seem never-ending.. But we carry on.. It's funny how the wildest thoughts come to us at night, right? 😂

Hey no it starrs from coming saturday.. Already dreading 😛
Its like looking behind the curtain (at one of the conveyor belts at one of Amazon's distribution centres - lol)
Nah - kidding - it's amazing how much the young mind springs from situation, to memory, to thought and back again - you wrote it here as if you are really keeping up - taking minutes almost but I suspect you've only caught a hundredth of the actual flights in and out of K Central.
Very interesting experiment. I hope it aided a restful sleep.
