Lost in time
18th of February 2022
I find it hard to believe that today is a Friday. I've been so convinced it's a Saturday since the early hours of the day that I already began to prepare towards church on Sunday which was meant to be tomorrow according to the time table my brain created for myself. In fact, I already planned how I was gonna get some goodies in preparation for tomorrow since it's always difficult to get anything edible on Sundays, and I'd like to fill my stomach before going to church.
I was snapped out of this madness by a friend who mentioned that he was gonna be going out early tomorrow, and I was like "ain't you gonna go to church?". He gave me this weird look and was like "today is Friday". I'm glad I didn't argue or he would have finished me with words., but in a playful way. I looked at my smartphone and kaboom it says "Friday 18th of February". Damn. I was shocked as to how I totally lost count of the days of the week and totally convinced myself it was a Saturday. Mind trick our brain plays lol!
It's not entirely my fault that my brain decided to do the mind trick thingy. Apart from the fact that I went out on a special assignment on Wednesday, I've been ever since and hardly set my foot out of the house. I guess it's enough reason to lose track of time and perhaps space.
Speaking of space, I find it weird that mosquitoes have decided to invade my personal space. While some have begun to make helicopter noises in my ears, others have begun to suck the little blood in my legs. At some point I had to cover my entire body including my head but they were miraculously able to enter this space as well. I don't know how they did it but I'd like to say that the mosquitoes are now an advanced civilization. They invented quantum tunnelling hence were able to phase through my cover cloth like it's a walk in the park. These mosquitoes have been possessed by demons and are no longer after a little quantity of blood. They wanna suck me dry until there is no more blood in me. Long story short0nthey're after my life but I refuse to let them have it!
I have at this point begun to sweat profusely due to the heat caused by staying under the blanket for too long. I had to do this as it was the only way to avoid the mosquitoes. Now I'd have to make a hard choice between these two options- stay under the blanket and allow the heat kill me via something called suffocation or push the blanket aside and let the mosquitoes have their way. A tough choice it is!
Haha, the mind can surprise us at times. And darn those mosquitoes. You may need to buy some repellant :)
