'wide awake'

Sometimes I realize that my eyes have been closed for a very long time. Usually, I'm 'collecting myself,' but the quotation marks mean that in actuality I'm 'avoiding what I'm supposed to be doing.'

What do those quotation marks mean?

Not funny.

OK, so now my eyes are open, but as a result, I'm aware that you're looking at me. Expectantly.

Didn't your mother teach you about expectations?

. . .

Or at least about not staring?
