#MicroPrompt: Belly
The Measurement Problem
I needed to sleep so I resisted the urge to make coffee. I'd need a clear head so I resisted that last drop of the Linlithgow in its bottle on the table in the corner. I needed to eat so I sat on the sofa with a glass of water and my own thoughts for company and waited the interminable half-hour for the cottage pie. I was in bed by nine pm with a warm, full belly, hoping but not expecting to sleep.
