In other words, if all I did was sit around all day, I'd be a little restless but fine. As soon as I try to do anything, I'm down to the bottom of the barrel energy-wise and it's so leaky it takes forever to fill up again. Not that I have much of a reserve anyway.
It's been like this for the last few days; I'll be okay in the morning, crash hard in the afternoon, sleep for a few hours and be fine for the rest of the day. It means I'm not nearly as productive as I expect, especially if I get a slow start to begin with, because by the time I've had a nap it's at least dinnertime if not later.
I don't know what's going on, but I am seeing signs of academic burnout. Not what I want to see when I have a midterm Thursday.
* Out of 10 possible
