Life: Sleep? What do you mean?

A screenshot from my fitbit showing that I enjoyed four hours and 38 minutes of sleep last night.

I have the nerve to wonder why I am so tired.

The wonderful thing about weekends, though, is that naps are possible if I don’t overschedule myself. Yes, I was up at five something, but by eleven (AM!) I went down so hard for a nap that I considered checking my neck for drugged darts.

I needed that.

Unlike this bottle of Pocari Sweat, which I don’t need, but which I am truly enjoying…

Life: The Opposite of Reassurance

I told my mother I felt really bloated.

She helpfully (?) told me that bloating was an early symptom of ovarian cancer for her.

If I’d wanted to be told that any possible symptom is cancer, I would have used a run-of-the-mill search engine to obtain my dread more efficiently.

Life: So Tired

I have been tired. So tired. How tired? I have been able to achieve REM sleep on public transit.

This is… worrisome.

Life: Respiratory illness misadventure

I’ve been profoundly ill these past few days, the sickest I have been since my December 2022 bout of COVID.

I’m on the mend now, but I’m relieved that my habit of writing posts in advance and scheduling them to post days ahead hides these awkward interruptions to my ability to read/see/type!

If you can avoid getting this season’s respiratory ailments, do so. I give this one zero out of five stars. I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT.
