Gifts for the friend who works nights

Their morning starts when the parking garage is empty and the sky is still making up its mind. These are finds for inverted hours: something for feet that just worked a long shift, a little warmth for the walk to the car, an eye mask and a quiet speaker for sleeping while the rest of the block starts the day, and a light that does not pretend it is noon. Send this list to whoever is still in scrubs, a hoodie, or yesterday’s badge.
