The flyer, bright and cheerful, had been slipped under the door. Mark picked it up, barely glancing at it. He was currently horizontal on the bed, the covers pulled up to his chin. The sun was shining, but he was not feeling enthusiastic about the day.

The idea of making polite conversation for an evening felt like a monumental task. The thought of choosing an outfit was also unappealing. He considered getting up, making himself something to eat. The effort to do even that felt excessive.

He closed his eyes, hoping to find a brief respite from the day.
