I'm being sort of moodswingy, so ye be warned. I'm rather depressed, and I've been crying a lot. I've also become extra-creative to compensate. In other words, I'm a mess. An honest-to-God mess. But yeah. So if I randomly start crying...don't worry about it.

It's just happening. I can't stop it any more than I can stop being afraid of stupid phobias. They're getting worse, but I think it's just because I'm sad. I don't want to have to leave my room, because I'm terrified that I'll run into a dead something-or-other. I do, of course, leave my room anyway. But I walk the long way so I can be sure to avoid the spot where the bird was yesterday. Even though Nicole swears it isn't there anymore.

I don't think people understand how scared I am of some things. I'm not a joke! I get so scared sometimes, it makes me feel ill. It stops my thought.

I finished my first paper for "the human situation". It has to do with kleos and honor in The Iliad. I really like Achilles's shield. Homer went into four pages of visual description in the name of art. Score one for artists!

I keep thinking that I see Keenan, around campus, but that isn't possible.

I won an argument! I readily admit that my opinion is slightly skewed. But it doesn't mean I'm not right.

I'm going to see a famous poet next week. This is my pilgrimage. This is my enlightenment, my spiritual redemption. Oh my goodness I can't wait!

He sets out a pair of teacups.

She smiled and ran her finger across a handle.

He carefully pours out. "Milk? Sugar?"

"I like it without sugar, myself, but if you like it..."

"I'll try it 'thout sugar, too, then."

"If you're certain." He adds a bit of milk to each cup, stirs, and hands one to Victor.

"'M always certain. 'Less when 'm lyin'." She took the cup with a grateful smile and took a small sip. "Thank you."

"No trouble, my dear." He smiles and takes a sip of his own.

She smiled at him over the edge of the cup.

He takes another sip. "Feeling any better?"

[identity profile] victormakesart.livejournal.com 2006-09-09 01:52 am (UTC)(link)
"Yes." She took a sip. "Thank you."

He shrugs. "I like people. Some people, at least."

"I'm one of 'em, eh?" She sounded rather proud of that.

[identity profile] victormakesart.livejournal.com 2006-09-09 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
She smiled brightly. "Perfect."

She giggled.
