Hi, I'm Audrey
Hi, I'm Audrey. I work nights in an emergency room, I sleep through the day behind earplugs and bunker curtains, and I write here about what happens to me while the rest of the city is busy with other things. No advice, no tips: just tiredness, laughter and the occasional sweet bread.

I read my sisters' group chat backwards, like everything else. A free weekend, fried snacks in Bernal and a Maná song all three of us hate.

I signed up for a half marathon with a cookie in my hand. Now I train in the afternoons, backwards from every training plan on the internet.

Six years on nights, blackout curtains taped to the wall with electrical tape, and the daily war against the neighbor, the gas truck and the guilt.
