So the study finally had gotten to me, and the memory just came out of nowhere. I realized I wanted to finish the series, that old anime I had watched before - and this came to me after I hadn't watched anime for years, amazing as that is now to say.

From the bubbly end of a story:

My new year's resolutions will include thinking about drinking less, since I actually do not over-drink. Cursing less, because I do it quite a bit, quite naturally these days -- and it actually sounds unintelligent, which is something I know already.

So, I'm back in America. It's still hot/cold, it's still blue skies, big food, big Texas -- so on, so forth. Jet-lag is starting to hit but I am at least moderately well-rested, so there's a head ache. I wish I could blame the time travel for not being able to eat, but my appetite is gone because of Kenny.

Part Six

When I am looking at these things, I see that there is that maddening happiness and there is always, always that fall to utter sorrow, that is so difficult to climb out of. So I understand the urge ( Read more... )

Of my works, the ones I've worked on most intently, the ones I've finished or am finishing, here are the themes:

plants: emotion. growth. maturation. blooming. serenity. love.

ache: pain. tension. speed. confusion. memory. desperation. intensity.

in ruins: angst. action. exploration. searching. discovering. finding. returning.
