head goes bump in the night

This morning, I woke around 1:30 or so on the couch and decided to put myself to bed. I headed toward the bathroom first, without turning on any lights. I hate when I turn on lights when I am half awake because they make it harder to fall back to sleep. I held my arms out to guide me toward the bathroom, but I guess they were spaced too far apart as they allowed me to run right into the corner of the doorframe - POW right on the forehead. I screeched and giggled simultaneously. It hurt like a mf, but I had to laugh at how ridiculous it was. As I laid down to fall back to sleep, I realized that it really hurt pretty badly. I did fall back to sleep alright. I woke a little nauseous, but I think that was leftover from the weekend. I've felt a little on the dizzy side all day, too, which could also be related to the hangover incident. I have a bump on my forehead - a very sore bump! But, I think it'll be alright. What a goof.

Went for coffee and reading at the coffee shop, came home and did some laundry, cleaning in my apartment and took a long shower. I made a nice lunch and felt so freaking drowsy after eating! I fell asleep for ten minutes then got up quickly and got ready to go to the hospital to see Sybil. I felt really out of it once I was there, but I still had a nice time visiting with her parents, Ginny and Robert. They are always doing different things. Ginny was knitting while Robert, who works in an office, told me of his plans to start growing and selling garlic. He also just submitted a sci-fi fantasy story to a competition. He is also developing a video game. He is also preparing to start making a drum out of concrete - yes, concrete. Long story. Anyway, I think it's so cool that they have many interests. Ginny also does painting and jewelry work, loves to cook and enjoys a good merlot. They both wish so much that their daughter was well and taking in life the way she was before cancer stole this from her.

As far as they can tell, the doctors believe Sybil's condition has stabilized. She is still in an induced coma, and her lungs seem to be working alright. There was a slight scare tonight when her ECG readings went haywire. Turns out it was a bad connection rather than her.

As I write this, I have quite a bit of homework to complete and other things to do before my busy weekend starts up. I am having a little trouble concentrating, but I think I will be able to finish it. I am hoping Hans will be able to come up soon.
