Dear Diary, I am afraid that I have been very lax in my writing, and I wish I had a proper reason for it...but I don't, not truly.
I suppose I could blame it on the fact that I am still feeling very weak - I have not ventured downstairs since the night Mina and I began to put together some mementos from our holiday here in our scrapbook, and we had an (admittedly) amusing encounter with Mr. Renfield.
Since then, I have not been feeling particularly well. Nothing in particular rouses me, I just feel weak and tired. The marks on my throat have not gone away, and I continue to wear my choker. Mina has wondered at it, but I have convinced her that it is simply a fancy I've taken to, and she has ceased to ask about it. She is so good to me, but I do not wish to worry her any more than she already has been. I feel a bit better today, and hope to go downstairs for a visit later.
Mina tells me that dear Dr. Seward was asking after me, one of the nights that I have stayed abed, and expressed his concern at my condition. How kind of him! I will have to make an effort to see him at the earliest convenience. He is a dear man, and I am grateful to have so many good friends.
No relapse of sleepwalking, either. I am grateful for that as well.
