Raff's Brain #271: I Took Melatonin. Then I Went to Hot Yoga.

Rob makes it to 6 a.m. hot yoga. His consciousness arrives separately. After taking melatonin the night before, an already sleep-deprived Rob Raffety battles the snooze button, drifts toward sleep mid-pose, and attempts to explain a mermaid stretch with a brain operating on emergency power. Also entering the picture: a birthday health-tracking ring, because apparently his wellness situation needs another witness.
