Awakened by a fit of pain.

And a big green ball of snot. Woke up in a fit of back pain and being unable to breathe. Turned off the humidifier. Went to the bathroom and mixed up warm salt water to blast out my nose. God. When awakening like that, which is usual lately, the cold weather makes it worse, I am acutely aware of returning to my body from somewhere else. Very strange. An apple sounded good. Must be helpful for the body so it can deal with clearing snot. God. Wasn't very filling, though.
