Chronic Fatigue be like…

Sleeping in every available free moment
Not sleeping thru the night
Holding my eyes open at work
Body feels like it’s made of a heavy metal sludge
Cranky about things that normally irritate me
Cranky about things that do not normally irritate me
Screaming, “Today is not the day!” (Just to make sure everybody knows.)
Weird paranoia about things my friends say that is just me being tired
Really wanting coffee but really not wanting to stand up
Drinking coffee all day with no discernable impact to my mental acuity
Trying to read this new book I pre-ordered and finally got delivered but my brain isn’t working and I’m reading words that aren’t there
Being late to work every day because I can’t get it together in the morning
Forgetting things
Becoming a cat
