Wha?

Bloing. Post Friday night special. That contented, filled, semisozzled, pacified feeling. Then, of course, you spend half the day in office. Aaaah, the joy of life. I'm going back to Maddu ras soon. Maddu ras, here I come. In the meantime, the Antitrust-IP Guidelines await, with sharpened teeth and black slimy tongues.
Mood meter: Wha?

Reset.

Normality seems restored today. In fact, I seem to have come out the other side.
 
The temperature in Delhi today was 4 degrees celsius minimum. I'm not sure what it was at 8:00 in the morning today. I decided to have a cold water bath. Was re-educated on the principles of heat transfer when steam started coming off me. Realised that abovesaid steam was actually vital internal body heat disappearing into the air. Continued anyway.
 
Now, a few hours later, I feel as if I've been reset. Most educational.
 
Worth trying once, but not more than.

Bzzzzzzzzz

That strange feeling that starts in your eyes and moves through your head when you haven't slept in 24 hours. I assume a caffeine high feels like this. I've never had one, though I drink lots of coffee. Symptoms:
1. bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
2. everything is surreal and unconnected to reality, like images viewed through a thick glass pane.
3. people are talking to you, and you can hear what they saying, but relating to them is like pushing through gelatine. Your reactions are on instinct, from a subconscious rulebook you've picked up over years of human survival and etiquette. Nothing really matters.
4. And finally, an underlying layer of bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
 
And then, somewhere in the middle of the day, you crash. Total systems shutdown.
 
The only thing I can compare it to is Fever Bright.
