Haha... I can so relate to Hive being the first thing you think of when you wake. I do that very well.
I have gotten to meet really amazing individuals here on Hive, and the relationship with some of them have even trancended to off-chain convos.
Come to think of it, your newbie, has not been online for quite a long time now. Any news about her wellbeing?
It's too bad that malaria got you. It sure has a way of making one feel less enthusiastic and frustrated. I really hope you get better soon, so you can go back to topping the charts like you normally do.
