Awake. Yes, I'm awake. I'm actually getting a decent sleep during the day now due to getting a load of earplugs for Christmas from my auntie. I suppose this is a sign of general acceptence from the rest of the family. They know I'm odd, so they just give me things that my oddness requires.
So when I woke up only my brother was home. He worked today, feeding abalone. A facinating job, I'm sure. But he also leaves work at about five in the afternoon. Mum and Dad weren't here, which accounted for the peace and quiet.
