I was tricked!
I’ve felt sleepy for the past few days – or so I thought.
I’ve actually just had really bad allergies (specifically head congestion). Now that I know that, and now that I am taking the corresponding allergy medicine(s), hopefully I’ll be able to think better and feel less tired.
End of message.
Addendum
(added 5/26; written from the point of view of 5/25 – i.e. “today” = 5/25)
When I ran today, I saw three vultures eating a dead raccoon. I had first seen the raccoon two days ago. This is the fifth dead raccoon I’ve seen this spring – yuck!
It smelled horrible, but I’d say it was only the third-stinkiest dead raccoon I’ve smelled in the past 3 months.
The vultures flapped away heavily when I passed. That was also disgusting. At least they moved the raccoon out of the street and onto the grass. Now it’s further from me when I run by.
