in the past two days i've been circumvented in work and reading. both last night and tonight i was approached by friends at jupiter and could do little more than stare, completely unresponsive. no clue how to participate in conversation.

maybe it's the lack of sleep.

maybe it's the caffeine.

the barista that i would totally turn lesbian for even came outside to talk to me ((actually it was to smoke a cigarette, but, regardless, she did them simultaneously)). she asked what i was reading. i turned the book over, unable to form words...

but not because it was awkward. incapable, without realizing.

luckily, she iron-manned the conversation before returning inside. i don't think she even noticed.



is post-thursday rehabilitation within my means?
