I feel as if I might kill over at any given moment. I don't know what's going on, but this past week my appetite has dropped into dangerously low levels and I can't concentrate on anything. I suspect it is some vicious circle: no appetite means I'll eat next to nothing and no food means no calories means no energy (or ATP if you will) and that means no concentration.

Allow me to extrapolate on this whole "no appetite" thing. What does having no appetite mean? I know before Germany, when I would say, "I have no appetite," it usually meant, "I'm not hungry." During and after Germany, no appetite meant, "I can barely will my hand to bring this french fry to my mouth."

This is by no means an exaggeration. Most days I'm able to eat an okay amount of food (albeit there might be unhealthy choices); however, there are also a good number of days where the idea of chewing is an exhausting thought.

So, I'm not feeling well but I still need to get a lot of reading finished. However, I feel as if I might be spending my evening sleeping in the bathroom because I'm feeling THAT miserable. Since I was young, sleeping on the floor of a bathroom has always been oddly soothing. Now that I'm pretending to be a "grown-up," I've tried to limit my bathroom sleepovers because, well, it's weird. Believe you me, I have to be feeling pretty crappy for me to even entertain the notion. Until later.

Cheers.
