Zombie status

I couldn't sleep at all last night. A toss here, a toss there. Just could not settle down into sleep. Then I was having a dream where I was looking into a mirror at my hair and pulling out something what seemed like broken mirror shards. I could see it reflecting in the light. I awoke after pressing my snooze button a dozen times and looked at the time.

05.30am.

My head immediately told me my bus was due in 6 minutes exactly. I changed into my work clothes, put my uncombed hair into a ponytail and literally just walked out the house. Ran for a bit for the bus too. Managed to catch it and just sat there in a daze for a good 5 minutes or so.

Then I thought to myself, "Hang on a sec, what day is it today?" I had to search for the date on my phone. I wasn't actually due to leave home for a good 20 minutes. I wept (not literally). I could have brushed my teeth! I drank two cups of coffee at work and felt like a zombie throughout the day.

I brushed my teeth as soon as I reached home. I hate the feeling of unbrushed teeth - stays on my mind for a long time and I think my little bacteria are having a mini party inside.

One of those stupid moments

I was so tired the other night.

I was attempting to retrieve something from one of my drawers. You know, the ones with the knob in the middle - you pull and ta-dah! it opens.

My mind wasn't processing normally. I sat down on the floor right in front of my drawer and started pawing at it for it to open. Obviously that wasn't the way it works. I did that for a good few minutes, staring at my drawer rather stupidly. Why won't it open? Then I tried grabbing in from the sides and pulling at it but it still refused to budge. Confuddled - I stared at it for another long while before realisation hit.

Then I laughed.

Note: I didn't drink that night.
