The air

at night comes in through the window, slightly open. The outdoor air is a bit cooler than is the air already in the bedroom, and it has a certain smell and dampness that takes me back somewhere, or maybe not back somewhere to some previous time, perhaps it just takes me somewhere else. Unfortunatly I think that mingled with that air, at least now, is the exhaust from the fast food place next door, so there is that special air smell as well as cooking grease smell.
