Went to sleep around 10:30pm last night and woke up 4:25am without hitting the snooze button on the alarm. Had work really early this morning.

Even at 5am, there was already some traffic on the highway. 

I always wonder about people on the road with me. 
What time did they wake up?
What kind of work do they do?
Are some of them driving back home after working all night?

Co-worker came up and talked to me. Telling me about their plan for the courses they're going to take later this year to complete the nursing program. Mentioning all these medical abbreviations to me as if I knew what they meant. 

After work I went to watch the Pixar film HOPPERS at AMC in the Dolby Atmos format. 

I hate to watch a film without a snack or a drink. But I knew that if I got a popcorn, I would feel bloated and regret buying it. 

It was slightly cold in the theater and made me feel extra sleepy. Shutting my eyes for a couple of seconds became a 15+ minute nap. 

It was one of the best Pixar films. I was honestly tired from waking up at 4:30am. I'm going to watch it again next week.

When you feel lonely or just want to be alone. Watching a movie at the theater by yourself in the early afternoon is one of the best things to do. It's quiet, not packed, dark. It doesn't really help improve or worsen your loneliness: It just feels like the right thing to do when you feel like that.
