I can't sleep because I've had the windows open to catch the cool change, and the strong winds are thick with the smell of distant smoke. Smoke is unsettling, and the body knows better than to sleep when it is around. And it smells bad, and makes me feel ill. The worst part is that I'm not sure where exactly the smoke is coming from. The news sites aren't being updated, and I've missed the late news on TV. From what I can smell, it's a bad fire, and I don't think it's eucalyptus-based.

Tomorrow I will have smoke-induced coughing.

Sigh.
