Day 3

Today was actually a pretty good day. Once again, I woke up at 7, ate breakfast then went back to bed, only to wake up again at noon.

When I was still half asleep at noon, contemplating whether or not it was worth it to get up to do nothing, I head a couple of people yelling outside, some 10-20 feet away. It took me a while to realize that they were yelling my name, and that I knew their voices. I pulled aside the blinds, and as I blinked groggily in the sunlight, I see my brother and two of my uncles standing with their backs towards my window, looking for me. I rapidly tapped on the glass before they walked any further away. It was great to see them! We talked about everything and nothing- how I was feeling, what had been going on, what college was like for us- and the like. We joked about doing a jailbreak. They stuck little items they found outside to my window (two ferns, a golf tee, and a blue guitar pick), and told me to call them if I needed anything like moral support. One of them gave me their HBO account, so I could watch all of the Studio Ghibli movies :) My voice was cracking and sounded hoarser than I had ever heard it. I think it was because I hadn't spoken for 2+ days.

After they left, I settled down to watch a movie that I had been wanting to watch for a while, but never had the chance to- Kiki's Delivery Service. I really enjoyed it! I related to the protagonist a lot.

I knew they would likely visit again before they left to go back home, but after 8pm came and went, I sort of lost hope. luckily, they didn't disappoint. In fact, they brought me a burger and fries! Not just any cheap food either. We were able to pry open the screen wide enough to slide the box of food through. It was the best stuff I had in a while. I was in good spirits for the rest of the night, and slept well.
