Exhaustion

My reserves are depleted.

I slept until noon today, worked on some student government issues, watched TV shows, and napped. All day. That's what I did.

What didn't I do? I didn't have a normal meal. Didn't leave my pajamas. Didn't do my homework. Didn't call my parents, or anyone else. Didn't actually speak to anyone.

I hate being sick, but I can normally manage it with medicine and normal sleep hours. I can maintain my normal schedule and still get everything done that I need to do. This sucks. There's no medicine that I can take. I'm sleeping in ridiculous quantities and yet I can't seem to stay awake through class.

I want to stay awake. I want to go to the gym, and finish my homework in one sitting, and hang out with my friends late into the night. Every time I decide to do something, a wave of exhaustion crashes over me and I'm tired again. Nobody's around to make me get up.

So instead, I'm doing nothing.

I fall to exhaustion again.
