Waking Up

The past four weeks of my life have whizzed by in a quick blur. My canker sores have long healed; I've just about had my fill of re-runs of TV shows I've never seen before; and I think I've spent enough time in my bed and on the couch to leave permanent imprints. I have almost nothing to show for this most recent crash and burn event in my life, but that's OK. I suppose a good dose of hiberation is a quite an proper antidote to a semester's worth of overstimulation.

Well, I'm still feeling a bit groggy and sleepy, but between that and feeling I've been living a very useless life for the past few weeks I'm also coming to grips with the inevitable fact that yet another semester is about to dawn. I'm slowly clearing out the cobwebs from my eyes, and mentally preparing myself to brush my teeth, put on some day-clothes, eat breakfast and then head back to the real world, whatever that means.
