charley bit me

No, not this Charlie.

This charley comes sneaking in at night while I sleep. I don't see him coming until it's too late. I immediately wake up, sit straight up in my bed, gasping-sometimes yelling-and pleading for it to stop. I stretch, press, massage, and punch until it subsides. This reaction often brings surprise and worry to my roommates, who wake up to my thrashing. It ends, I go back to sleep, but the next morning I can feel exactly where it was. My entire muscle is sore and on occasion a bruise blooms up in the following days.



It's rainy and windy and I'm walking with a limp.

Type of day to stay in bed.
