The nakedness.

Now I don’t sleep naked often, I normally sleep with briefs or boxers or whatever, but last night I slept naked. I got home early, it was only like one thirty in the morning but I had a really bad headache. I have been really happy over the last few weeks because I am back into beer, I go on and off beer every now and again but I have been really happy drinking beer on the last few occasions. Last night Tom Wilkin had drinks at his, and I brought my keg that I didn’t finish from Nikki’s. It was still good, that wasn’t the problem, the problem was that I, for some reason, am sick of beer again. I struggled to drink what I drank, and I just wasn’t enjoying it at all. I don’t know what I would want to drink next time, but beer is definitely not it. I got moderately drunk off the keg though, but I felt more sick than drunk, and not vomit sick, just like, headache sick... like hangover sick... it was shit.

I got home at one thirty and walked into my bedroom, I started stripping all my clothes off as I made my way to my bed, throwing the clothes that I was wearing all over my room and I fell on my bed in my briefs or jocks or whatever you want to call them. I had a bad headache, and it was really, really hot. I took them off, opened my window to let in a cool breeze as I slept and I then sat under my covers, well not sat, it was more of a laying down manoeuvre, but I was lying in my bed naked with the blanket on me and it felt amazing.

I awoke at eight thirty in the morning to a text from Caitlin, which means that I was texting people drunk again last night, which was weird because I didn’t really get that drunk, but I still don’t really remember texting that well. I remember texting mum, saying that I might be home late but that didn’t really happen and yeah... I responded to the text and then went back to sleep. I slept for a further two or so hours before I was woken up by the sound of people. I forgot that mum and dad were having people over from Melbourne or something today; they said that I had to be awake at some point during the day so that I could see them but I ended up staying in bed, trying to fall asleep for a bit longer. I couldn’t sleep though, especially when they started talking about me, so I sat there listening. One of them said ‘where is Nicholas, I haven’t seen him since he was a little baby’ and mum said ‘he’s in his room, you should go and wake him up,’ and this scared the hell out of me, someone that I haven’t seen since I was a baby, which means I have no idea who they are was going to come into my room and wake me up... I was bloody naked...

I know that my other auntie was there, the one that got me that job interview, and she’s the kind of person who would just run in and grab the blanket and rip it off and get me to wake up. I got up on my own before anyone came in, I grabbed the towel that I use to dry myself after I shower and I wrap it around my waist so that if anyone sees me as I make my dash to the bathroom my genitals are kept covered. Lucky I did this because one of the family friends from Melbourne was right outside my room on his mobile, so if I made the dash naked none of this would have worked. I casually nodded and waved as I walked past. I haven’t seen him in years, so the reunion saw me in a towel and nothing else.

I showered and then made my way back to my room to get dressed. After I get dressed I walk out to say hello to everyone to see everyone ignore me, they were either too into their conversations to care about me or they just didn’t care at all in the first place. Mum then introduces me to everyone that I don’t know and then she starts talking about how messy my room is. Then one of the people that I have never met before, actually it was probably the one that I haven’t seen since I was a baby but anyway, she said ‘he just came out to say hello, not to get bullied by you’ which I was pretty happy about, I then grabbed some pineapple juice and made my way back to my room where I have been since. I am still here, I am just writing this. I hope this day picks up, because if it doesn’t I’ll probably just sit here all day playing Pokémon... which reminds me, I could be playing Pokémon right now... okay bye.
