delirious, delirious. do you know when you are? today i went home halfway through my french class because i was shaky and sweaty and when i tried to write, the words wouldn't go onto the paper. the school nurse reveled me with a story about why carrots are orange, even though she was wrong.

i went home and slept for five hours and dreamt of fixies and bunny rabbits and swimming pools. my naps were often interrupted by brief interludes of agitated wakefulness and startling hunger, and when i awoke for the last time at around six the garden outside my window was glowing gold from the sun.
