So how have you been lately?

Pretty good, I guess.

Mhm?

I mean, I'm just furious, all the time. And sometimes I have trouble feeling hopeful about the future. And I'm drinking a bit more than I should, and I'm finding it hard to wake up in the morning.

Tell me more about that last one.

Well...as an example...on Sunday we go to a boxing class at noon, which shouldn't be too hard.

My partner usually tries to wake me up around 11am.

Hey love..it's time to get up...

Nnnnnngh

And then they go and make us a breakfast.

And they bring me breakfast in bed.

I made us scrambled eggs. Want to open your eyes and sit up so you can have some?

Nnnnnggghhh

They usually end up spoon-feeding me while I lie prone with my eyes closed.

om nom nom

I'll finally drag myself out of bed about 5 minutes before we have to leave.

You know when I say it all out loud like that it doesn't sound so great does it?

It definitely doesn't.
