Reset Forty, Day Fourteen
Thursday I ended up feeling even worse than I did on Wednesday. It was mostly lack of sleep. I slept about four hours in the morning, then spent about two hours lying awake in bed trying to get back to sleep, finally accepting failure and getting up a bit after eleven. I expected I'd get a nap at some point in the afternoon or evening, but it turns out I've gone into hyper mode and haven't been able to relax enough to sleep, though I'm exhausted indeed. Now I'm worried that I won't be able to sleep today. Naturally I got nothing done all day (or night.) Bummer.
It was bright and sunny when I got up, but the clouds returned as afternoon wore on and the promised rain did eventually arrive, though aside from a few brief showers it didn't get very strong, nor was it continuous. Still, what there was of it was enjoyable, and when it stopped completely not long after sunset the mockingbird showed up and began its nocturnal concert. I've heard him almost every time I've gone out since then. Alas, that the music lacks the power to relieve my tension, or relax my stiff neck, or assuage the low grade headache that has plagued me continuously.
The things I didn't get done Thursday I will attempt to do today, if I can get enough sleep, but I don't know how successful I'm likely to be. Anxious lethargy, ennui, distraction; I languish.
