Searching for a silver lining...

I could be worse off, right? Being a phantom does have its ups after all. There’s the- -or, uh- -hmm... Well, I can spend less time worrying about stubbing my toes on things, or whackin’ my funny bone on something and having to deal with that weird sensation afterward. Not that I spent a lot of time actually worrying about those things before this. Come to think of it, this might be the first time ever... You ne’re know what ya got till it’s gone, yeah? Hey, that’d make a great song. Strange tingling sensation and all...

After bumping into Willow..or through Willow, I decided straying from this place wouldn’t be one of the bestest best ideas that Doyle’s ever had. I could think of at least 12 good reasons to stay here, but I won’t get into each of them. This is where I showed up, and where I found the girl responsible for my being brought back. Those were the top two, and that was enough reason to stay put. Well, almost enough...

There was also the not so obvious reason. The girl. Cordelia. She was here too. Brought back from the great beyond same as me. She was probably the one person I wanted to see the most, but she also happened to be the person I wanted to see the least at the very same time. Doesn’t make much sense. I know. But sense was never a friend of mine, so I didn’t really expect that to have changed.

What if she was miffed that I had left her the gift of daily mind explosions? Holding grudges wasn’t beyond her from what I remember. On the other hand, even if she was mad and the very sight of me sent her off the deep end...what could be the worse that could happen? Can ghosts inflict bodily injury on other ghosts?

If I would have known I was ever going to be put in a situation like this one I would have made a point of having a few more attempted heart-to-hearts with Dennis.

Hey, I think I just may have found my silver lining to this predicament. At least I’m not the classification of ghost that Dennis was. Held a whole conversation with Willow without any vocal or visual problems. Yeah, things are...lookin’ up?

I think I’ve had just about enough of this ‘bright side’ crap.
