I am detained

2:37am

I wake up

eyes wide open
body is alert
I sit up

Why did I say that?
What are they thinking?
What should I do? 

5:27am

Alarm goes off

When did I fall back asleep?
I still feel tired

get up
get ready for work
wash
brush
dress
food

Why did I say that?
What will I say when I see them?
What should I do?

It’s cold out
I need a heavy jacket
I missed a call from mom
I need to call her back
I have to pick up some chicken for dinner
I hope they don’t complain that it’s the 2nd time this week we’re eating chicken

12:17pm

Lunch time

salad
make sure I eat more lettuce
and also the cucumbers
should I eat the dessert today? the sugar, the carbs, the fat
no

always remember
diabetes
obesity
heart disease
cholesterol
and of course, cancer

12:27pm

Back at work

I forgot to email him back
make sure to read over the email before sending it
I need to find her and make sure she understands what I meant
also don’t forget to find that chicken recipe for dinner
I have to buy a birthday gift
make sure the gift is thoughtful and special

5:57pm

Sitting in traffic

he was acting funny
he must be a little bit upset with me
I need to make sure I smile more when I make eye contact with people

I think she’s upset with me too
I forgot to send the email
I need to take care of it tomorrow

6:47pm

Home

I ate too much
I should go for a walk
but I’m tired
just for a little bit
but I need to clean the kitchen

I forgot to call mom
I should go for a walk
but I’m tired
only 30 minutes
but I need to check my emails again

10:27pm

In bed

I’m so tired
don’t forget to finish the shopping list
and call mom
and make the doctor’s appointment for my recent headaches
need a side for dinner for tomorrow
I’m so tired…

2:37am

I wake up
