Sleepy. And headachey. And sleepy again. And I have a Spanish test tomorrow morning at 11 that I'd completely forgotten about until about 45 minutes ago. My amazing plan for getting something higher than a D on it is going to sleep and getting up at 7 tomorrow morning to study.

Wish me luck. I will need it. I should have stuck to taking language classes that actually draw on language skills. This class is basically memorization of "rules" for how a splinter of Latin changed to Old Spanish and then was modernized. Plus some 8th century history. In short, I cannot coast through this class, and I build language classes into my course schedule in part specifically because they allow me to coast. Groan.

Plus: the headache. Aforementioned, but one mention does not do it justice. My eyes hurt. I am going to lie in bed in the dark until I fall asleep, perhaps listening to something soothing and wonderful, like Euphoria's self-titled album (which I just got), or the new Ani.

But turning out the lights and lying down is really the most important part. And getting some rest so I'll be remotely prepared for the test tomorrow.

Mono is not to be messed with. I'm guessing that the fact that I've been feeling like complete junk lately has something to do with residual mono stuff. I'm getting way more sleep than I used to get before I got sick, and yet I'm always tired. I feel like I could fall asleep in any situation at the drop of a hat, given the opportunity.

It better wear off soon; that's all I have to say.

Oh, and Mike says he's getting me something for my birthday, which is tomorrow. I can't wait to see what nonsense he comes up with. I'm betting it'll be alcoholic.
