Because I got my inbox down to nine outstanding emails.
Because I answered some really old pms.
Because I stayed off work when I felt awful.

I'm coming off my meds, bit by bit, like my doctor said. And it hurts today, lots, but tomorrow it WILL be better.

I'm not running away from this boy; and I'm trusting him.
the worlds her stage the people her crew
she looks so happy to me and you
but inside her body are secrets and lies
they're all her own that she hides behind
Image
her radiant mask her wonderful grace
but inside she's wondering why she's stuck in this place
but into her being she'll fall and remain
until someone frees her it's all just the same

I didn't panic about ringing a load of people, i just got on the phone and did it. And it WORKED! :)
...then one day I realised that the people you see in waiting rooms and car parks and on trains are really far more interesting. That they all have whole novels inside them, a fabric of scar tissues, photos and memories. They are comedies and tragedies and - more often - both at the same time.

because laziness be damned, i started on the project of taking everything out of my room so i can give the carpet and walls a good cleaning.
there is, in the end, the letting go.
