late night
Well, for me it's late night. I'm the only one up, and it's dark out, and the main viewing event of the day is over. And I've been working in my online class, and it all reminds me of earlier times in my life, and going to the computer in search of companionship - a futile effort then, a nostalgic and equally futile effort now. Finding companionship in these hours means that people you care about have no more immediate life than you do, that they have no more interesting thing to do than be "online" for someone not in their immediacy. For a brief and wonderful time in my life, this was true for me. But it's been years, and you'd think by now I'd have found another way.
I just haven't.
I just haven't.
