Hitting the wall.

alexandraerinThere are times when I ignore my physical limitations and push my body too far, until it pushes back. Then there are times like what happened tonight. I haven't been moving furniture or going for long walks in hot weather (I'd have to go for a long walk to find some hot weather), I had neither missed meals nor binged in any way, I haven't been skimping on sleep... but at some time just before six yesterday evening, I just hit a wall and started going into a decline. My pills didn't help. Caffeine didn't help. Eating didn't help. I was tired.
By game time (three hours later), I was exhausted. My typing was starting to go wonky and my focus was going wonkier. Dorian, my Giant Monster Kitty of Doom, was trying to climb in my lap and I didn't have the arm strength to push him away. Jack helpfully pointed out that I could put his snuggly blanket next to me and he'd climb into that, but by that point Mr. Dorian had absconded with several shiny spoons.
I ended up falling asleep in front of my computer. I woke up when one of the players tried to call me on Skype, but I didn't have the wherewithal to actually sit up or reach for my keyboard. My computer setup is actually on the floor not far from where I sleep, so I felt very comfortable where I was.
That was like six hours ago. I still feel a deep-down weariness, but I'm also hungry so I suppose I'm going to have to go downstairs and get some food. I'll see if that wakes me up or puts me back to sleep.
