Staying Up

Man in vinyl trench coat, pacing around at Bauhaus Coffee last night, talking on a cellphone: “I’ve been up since 10 o’clock in the morning – but yesterday morning. Now I need to stay up ’til 10 p.m. No, wait . . . 24 plus 6? I need to stay up till 2 in the morning. No . . . yeah, 10 o’clock tonight, then I sleep until 4 a.m. What? . . . No. 5 a.m. will be fine. I’ll only be sleeping ’til 10 o’clock tonight. Okay, see you then.”
