I feel like I'm slowly rising up from long, blurry days of exhaustion and depression. The sort of both that all but turns you bedridden. Honestly, I had three fucking naps yesterday, then couldn't get to sleep until five ayem, and Spooky let me sleep until noon thirty.

"Oh, and too, the time has come," the Walrus said, "to actually fucking read back over all of Blood Oranges at once for the First Time Ever." Er, yeah. And I need to do that this month.

And send me a copy! I've still only read the first four chapters . . .

(Hope the sweary library appearance went well.)

The library was quite nice, actually.

Ah, yes, but if just this once you're kind, next time I won't be expecting it.

Excellent.
