i want to answer the original question - i can't seem to wake up. i'm not sick but for the past week i can't wake up. even now i feel like i never got past the just woke up phase, and i'm taking vitamins and stuff.
also a visual how-are-you: i'm not sure if i accurately resemble it but i feel like i look like a somewhat thinner dunkin donuts old man, the guy who just died.
