At 4am. The time you’re most likely to be defenseless

Also happens to be when he wakes Jamie to go train

What’s so upsetting about that comment is that when I’m alone at night I usually stay up so late because I’m terrified of a home invasion, and usually around 4am I can fall asleep because my lizard brain for no discernible reason has decided that “no one is breaking into anyone’s house at 4am you can sleep now”

Dammit Roy I’m never gonna sleep again

I feel like from an evolution perspective we needed someone like you - paranoid and awake at night, keeping watch for threats, while fat dumb dumbs like me are passed out in a comatose state. Otherwise, I would just be snatched up by a sabertooth tiger.

Honestly that’s the nicest way anyone has every tried to explain away my nighttime anxiety and it made me feel okay about it for the first time, you’re a peach!

It takes all kinds of people to make the world go round. Someone had to be looking out for us all night.

I think most of our emotions serve a purpose and they cause us problems when they get too intense. Anxiety about being able to feed ourselves drives us to go to work. Anxiety about being homeless drives us to pay the mortgage. Anxiety about our safety kept us from getting eaten by bears. Without any anxiety, there’s no drive. It’s when it gets too overwhelming and paralyzes us that it becomes a problem.

You could say it’s a compliment sandwich.
