the hobo cop

dear dishwasher and train diary,

sometimes when i start the dishwasher it wont fill all the way and i have to restart it. i've cleaned the level thing so i dunno, it's done it since birth, and it didn't do it today- and i figured it would since i'd sat down, but it didn't so i got lucky i suppose. oh and i forgot to tell you something else weird that happened the other night in the middle of the night that was so out of the blue. i woke up- it was dead quiet and my window was open. i was in no pain AND i didn't have to pee or nothing- so it was weird that i woke up- everything was still. then i was kinda laying there bewildered at what on earth could have woke me and i heard- way off in the distance- i really couldn't tell- maybe a rumble- yes it was a rumble. i thought it could be a train coming, but usually they steady blow them dumb whistles- the choo choo whistles- and this rumble had none. it got closer- then i heard it, "CHOO!CHOO!" and that was it. only those two choo choos- and it rumbles off into the distance again. could it be that i woke up to hear the quietest train EVER? a sneaky train? a polite train? because you know some of those train drivers get stupid on the horns and just honk them to be rude in the middle of the night. come on, they know people are sleeping. i am just glad i woke up to hear the quiet train. i got to hear all the clicks in the tracks and it was a pretty cool way to get pulled back to sleep.
