3:33 am: Go back to sleep.
3:34 am: In a minute. What should I say in the caption?
3:34 am: “I’m exhausted, jet lagged, and confused. Don’t take me seriously”?
3:35 am: Ha, ha, funny. Not.
8:00 am: Why the hell is it so bright outside?

8:09 am: …
8:20 am: Shit, can’t believe I fell asleep again.
8:30 am: Get up! Brush your teeth! Drink coffee!
8:31 am: Mmm, coffee…
8:45 am: Oh my head hurts. Ouch, and my back. Didn’t know that could hurt.
8:46 am: Where’s my hot water bag?
8:48 am: Should I take a selfie of my lying on the bed with the hot water bottle over my back?
8:49 am: …
8:50 am: Don’t be stupid. You’d not going to post it anywhere.
8:51 am: I’m taking it anyway.
8:52 am: Don’t you dare post it on socials!
11:00 am: Why’s the time so slow?
11:15 am: I’m going to lie down a bit.
11:20 am: Why’s the time so slow?
11:30 am: Am I hungry?
11:31 am: I’m having a tea anyway.
11:34 am: Might as well have some bread with it.
12:00 pm: Why’s the time so slow?
12:01 pm: I don’t know!
12:30 pm: My head hurts. I’m going to lie down a bit.
12:31 pm: You do that.
12:45 pm: I think I need a poo.
12:46 pm: Probably for the best.
12:47 pm: Do I have to get up, though?
12:48 pm: You’ll have a lot more work if you don’t.
12:48 pm: Sigh. In a minute.
1:25 pm: Why can’t I type properly?
1:28 pm: Why can’t I put words in the right order?

1:31 pm: Can’t be. I can speak clearly and read fine.
1:32 pm …
2:00 pm: I can’t believe I did so much work today.
2:01 pm: Well, you did have a lot of time on your hands. And no where to potter around.
2:30 pm: My head hurts. I’m going to lie down a bit.
3:30 pm: Should I eat something?
3:31 pm: Probably. Are you hungry?
3:32 pm: Not really. But I wouldn’t mind another slice of bread.
4:30 pm: Why does my head still hurt?
5:30 pm: I’m going to lie down for a bit.
5:45 pm: How wonderful it is to lie and bed and listen to the ambient sounds.
