woke up at 4

I don't understand it. This morning and yesterday morning I woke up at 4. Yesterday it was 4 on the dot. Today it was 3:57, which is even more annoying. I hope it's not telepathic empathy with someone close to me (for instance, hitherto unsuspected twin) who is being woken up for his-her medicine in a hospital in Shigatse (yes, my hitherto unsuspected twin is probably of indeterminate gender). I hope the 4 am wakeups are not related to attempts by Robin Gibb to alert me to the fact that my cynical and uncaring attitude to celebrity deaths has become a trending topic in heaven. I suppose 4 is better than 3 (?) but it's bad either way. I think about the last thing I thought when I went to sleep last night was, 'I'm going to wake up too early', which is self-thwarting isn't it.

Hey, at least you and I got to talk.
