***

I’m at Lardner, one zombie among a table full of them. The day was a complete loss. I didn’t get out of bed until an hour ago. I talked briefly to Brian, who spent last night studying and then went to bed at ten o’clock. He doesn’t feel like the living dead today; he was able to spend a productive day preparing for his last final on Monday. In my defense, if I had a final on Monday, I’m pretty sure–even with how I’ve been feeling–I wouldn’t have let go like I did last night. But I don’t have a final on Monday, so there.

Even with the lost day, I’m fine, schoolwork-wise. I do still have to finish my portfolio of lab reports for Advanced Organic Chemistry, but I got a lot done yesterday waiting for Beth to get out of her exam. All I’ve got left to do now is an hour or two of work, a quick proofread, and then print the whole thing out. I ought to be functional enough by tomorrow to do that.

As for Beth, she’s here, in about the same condition I’m in, halfheartedly pushing her food around her plate just like everyone else is. She’s got an early flight home tomorrow, back to Cincinnati. She already asked me to make her get to bed by nine o’clock, and somehow I don’t think she’s going to be fighting me on that.

When we’re done not eating, a group of us walk back to the dorm together. I think we’ve all got the same thought–if we walked back alone, we might slip and fall and not be able to get up and then we’d die of exposure. Beth is hanging onto my arm, which is probably a mistake because I don’t feel any steadier than she does. But we make it back to Carson House in one piece, we don’t lose anybody.

As I collapse onto the couch in the lounge, I feel stupidly proud of myself for surviving the trip to the dining hall and back, as though I’ve just returned from an expedition to climb Mount Everest or something. I’m not the only one; Mark Bainbridge plops down next to me, laughs weakly, and says “Does anybody else feel like they’ve been to Antarctica and back?”

“I was thinking the North Pole,” Kelly Travers pipes up from across the room. Just about everyone mumbles in agreement. Well, we may all look and feel like crap, but at least we lived to tell the tale.
