I’m such a dork. Twice already this morning I’ve startled myself by turning around to look through the window outside, only to stare right into the soulless eyes of the ghoul hanging from the tree just outside.
Difficult advice to adhere to when I feel like I’m sinking fast. I’m sure the shorter hours of daylight has something to do with it, but yesterday I sank like a stone. The test I was supposed to be at is this coming Saturday, and I think the reality of how long I’ll probably be [...]
