feeling: my eyes hurt
listening to: nothing
Oh yeah... forgot to mention I saw a coyote on the way to grandma's on Eve night. That was probably the coolest part of the holidays this year. Apparently they're running around all over the place anymore, but I've never seen a wild one up till that night... that made me bounce a couple times heh
Good freaking morning, by the way. Why am I awake at 7 a.m.? I don't know either.
I spent a couple hours wafting in and out of half-sleep while watching Utena, then around 4:30 I finally gave up and got ready for bed, but I couldn't get to sleep because my stomach was going insane. On top of that, I was shaking like a bald chihuahua in a blizzard, which is usually an indication that I'm sick in one way or another. So I went downstairs to curl up on the couch in one of grandma's afghans - a comfort zone I've retreated to during times of sickness for as long as I can remember. Dozed for an hour or slightly more, then decided I felt better enough to try to sleep in my own bed again... but just as I was drifting off, around 6:30, I heard a car pull in the driveway. Anyone who's been reading this long enough to remember the two break-ins we had last year (one of which occurred while I was home alone) can probably guess that I was hit by a wave of paranoia, so I went downstairs, where dad was already up and puttering around even though he's off work today, because he's some kind of robot who can function at such ungodly hours... and he said it was Gakidaddy going deer hunting. So I dragged myself back to bed and spent another half hour trying to sleep, but between the growing daylight, my stomach still complaining, and God only knows what else, sleep would not come. When my eyes started aching from failed attempts at forcing them to stay shut, I said screw it and got up. And here we are. I can't even put my contacts in yet because they're supposed to disinfect for 4 hours and I just took them out 3 hours ago, so I'm sitting here in my stupid evil giant glasses that I haven't worn since, like, high school.
I'm gonna have a headache vile enough to knock over a yak here in a couple hours. What a spifferific day this is turning into.
