Summary

Taking a hint from one of her neighbors the narrator finally gets to 
sleep after plunging her own depths.

Commentary

This was a good story.  I would have liked to have known a little 
more about the apartment and the world surrounding the narrator.  The
story works without those kinds of details, but I think they would 
have made it more complete.

This was a simple vignette.  There was not much plot or 
characterization, but the story suffered only minimally because of that.

Rating

I give this story a 6.5 on a scale of 10.
