(Involuntary) 24-Hour No Sleep Challenge
Good grief, I couldn't sleep for the whole night before. I couldn't at all. Today was a workday and I was going into the start of the work week with zero sleep, no naps, no rest.
My day started with me staying up for the entire night, just doing random things. I was probably having a mental breakdown, but I didn't feel the absolute intensity of it. Around 6 a.m. or so, I ordered breakfast from McDonald's and I ate quite a heavy breakfast. I just tried my best to lie back and chill while watching a few episodes from The Simpsons. I watched a few feel-good episodes from The Simpsons throughout the day to make myself feel a bit better about my shitty situation. Additionally, someone replied to me in the morning and she told me off. I mostly just did work and a few minor tasks in the morning. Weirdly enough, I didn't feel that sleepy by then, but it was probably just the coffee from McDonald's keeping me up.
By lunchtime, I got to recover some sleep. I felt so knackered by the end of it, though. But I was able to press on with my usual tasks at work, completing all of it by the end of my shift. Additionally, someone started to talk to me by 3 p.m. and they asked me to add them on Discord. We were talking there, but it still was a lot awkward between us. I didn't feel like replying to their messages that much because things were just "back" as if nothing had happened. No issues were addressed. They even got mad at me for replying late, which was kind of annoying. By the end of my shift, I was able to breathe a sigh of relief but things weren't done. I tried to sleep for a bit, but I couldn't. I cooked some Buldak instead that I had in the fridge for dinner.
Surprisingly, someone invited me to a game they were streaming. I invited them to our old server and we eventually got back in VHH by the end of the night. It was really awkward since I still felt burned by them, but I guess things are back to normal between us now. They played the game I recommended, one game from The Lancaster Leak series, and they gave up. I eventually bought the Fear Assessment and got them to play it. They were scared so they closed it and asked me to stream instead. I streamed another analog horror game titled Thoughtform Invasion and it was pretty scary to me. By 9 p.m., they decided that it was time for them to sleep and we called it a day between us.
I was just chilling and trying to get myself to sleep. I was watching some YouTube Shorts of voice actors who are everywhere when suddenly my phone's screen broke on me. A pink line developed as I was watching a video and I knew this was unfixable. This day would've been downright awful had it not been for someone and I reconnecting again, which ended my dread. But still, I had stayed up for 24 hours and now my phone screen is permanently broken. I just have to buy a new phone now which is really annoying, but whatever. By the end, I took a long bath and tried to convince myself of all the good things that still happened in the day.
