Writing excercise, sleep notes

This afternoon Bridgie and I sat down and gave each other song lyric prompts in a writing excercise. My attempt was deemed depressing. The first part, certainly, but I thought the last bit was uplifting... Ah well, I suppose it's all a matter of perspective. Consider yourselves forewarned.
The three bits are not necessarily related to each other directly, it was simply a stream of consciousness.

As a record to myself, I took the melatonin supplement for the first time last night. Fell asleep relatively well, comparable with some of my better nights, but woke up groggy and bleary-eyed. I ended up taking a brief nap later. It could be the supplement, could be that I need time to adjust to it, or could be entirely unrelated.

Trying to draft the family into going out to the park to catch the last of the afternoon sun.
