Not quite 3:00AM

Now reading: Haruki Murakami - Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman

There's a strange emotional weight to being alone late at night, after booze, cigarettes, and so on. Murakami notes in one of the stories in the above collection that every animal thinks things over at 3am."

Somehow, a Murakami story made me think of Arthur Rimbaud. I think the story really meant to reference a general Jim Morrison like character perhaps though.
