Yesterday was a full mess. I don’t know it was due to the extra classes, the liter of coffee I’d had in the morning, the poor sleep, or what. However, I was in a poor state all day. Still, even yesterday was better than I’d felt in the weeks before the good sleep period. I can’t really complain.
During lunch, I got a call from Lindsay, of all people. That was rather shocking. Or, rather, I got a Facebook message. She had unfriended me, I thought, and she messaged me upset that I’d unfriended her. I don’t know who did what why or when or how, but, somehow we were unfriended.
Long delay there. I am super stressed, haven’t slept well, and have way too much caffeine in me. I just did about 3K and 10 flights of stairs. Still struggling to stay focused and grounded.
Anyway, that was about it for that. Other than Anna and Lindsay, the school day was just busy. Nothing of interest to report.
Oh!
There’s a new girl who is here a lot. I thought maybe she was a teacher, but she looks way too young. Then I thought she was a high school or junior high student doing a sit-at-work, but she is always here. Turns out she’s a student teacher from Kagoshima. She also studied in Hawaii and speaks good English. Hooray for that. Maybe I have a language exchange partner.
After school, I went right to the doctor and, while there, FINALLY finished Jefferson and moved on to Madison. Then, I think I went directly to Eikaiwa. Eikaiwa was dull. Only the president, Kyoko, and elementary teacher showed up. Well, Sam too. I wasn’t able to focus. I think I need to DRASTICALLY cut down my caffeine intake.
Then, at Plasse, nothing looked good to eat. Nor did anything look good at 7-11 or Family Mart. However, at Plasse I did buy Mikan, yogurt, cereal, and coffee. Then, I went home. I ate mikan and breakfast food for dinner. Then I called Anna and we talked for a long time. While talking and walking, I went to 7-11 (because I needed more calories) and got a fiber bar. Those things are insanely caloric and without much fiber, but it’s obvious that I need more, and I was short of even the 1.5K calories recommended to be healthy. Lunch was terrible and I barely ate any. But I had the plausible deniability that comes from having talked the whole time.
I spent way too much time talking to Anna, but she needed it. I slept a bit later than I’d hoped, but still before 11. However, around 2 or 3 I woke up and had a horrible time getting comfortable or getting back to sleep. My mind was racing and my knees ached and could not settle.
I woke up early again this morning and gave up on sleep. I went downstairs and dicked around on the internet before going about my day. I had too much coffee again.
It’s now 1:57. I’m wearing a black short sleeved shirt which almost fits. Apparently it’s tighter than I thought because the kids are patting my stomach more than normal, and that’s saying something. I don’t have a whole lot to say, I’m still frazzled and caffeinated, and . . . yeah. I’m going to end this.
