Long sleep

Last night I was done in; I leaned over from a sitting position to a sprawling body presentation and flipped through TV stations using the remote. Then for the next four hours, I had episodes of glimpsing the screen and thinking, “Gee, what is going on with this plot?” At 11 pm I woke up and spent some time wondering how in ever I would be able to sleep through the night. At 6 am, I awoke. I have read that during sleep a necessary enzyme for thinking is produced in the brain . . . well, maybe I should take an online IQ test right now since once I took one and got a 76. Yes, maybe will all this sleep and freshly-made enzyme I could manage an 87.

Summer seems to have the flu – the stomach and intestinal kind. She has been sitting next to me the past couple of days as we have joined Gordon Ramsay as tries to resurrect failing restaurants. Her breath has floated into my breathing space. Let me sum this paragraph up by noting Summer is the first to get some illness and always passes it around to everyone.  So we are waiting with the swords of nausea hanging over our heads.
