Sunday Evening

It's dark, my neighbor is nailing something somewhere, my cat Milla is crying outside my office door, the TV is spewing words and music from a movie, my heart is pounding hard for whatever reason, my lower back is aching, the crickets are cricking quietly, the floor fan in the next room is whirring softly, my dog Kodiak is calling for me because I left him outside, but other than that, it's quiet and peaceful and that is all I need.
