5:10 is still dark.
5:10 would be 15 minutes too late to be waking for a commuter day.
(This is not a commuter day; there are no commuting days at present.)
5:10 is a good time to go back and get one more sleep cycle in before work.
5:10 is a bad time to wake from nightmares and not be able to fall asleep right away.

5:50 is pale silver half-light through the blinds.
5:50 feels sleepy and cozy.
5:50 is too early to get up.
5:50 is too late to go back to sleep.
5:50 is before my morning podcasts are released.
5:50 is a between-time, not a real-life time.
Sigh.
5:50 it is, then.
Not today’s sunrise
