Maybe there's a way not to let it hurt; tell it out in pictures and songs and words

I realise I have been just the tiniest bit incommunicado. I apologise. I've been dealing with a double-barrelled blast of obsession and depression together... it hasn't left a lot of brainspace over for conversation. I would promise a return to normality at some point, but I have no idea what might be considered normal for me. I'm not sure I even have a baseline.

Just know that I am reading everyone's journals and that I still love you.

Walked dogs tonight, and when I went to turn down the alley, I saw a fox standing in the middle of the path, looking me in the eye in that "And who the hell do you think you are?" way that urban foxes have. Unbelievably, I spotted him before the dogs did, and was able to prevent the dogsplosion by turning down Woodbury Avenue. Woodbury Avenue is covered with woodpigeon feathers; there's no trace of any actual pigeon parts (believe me, Squish would have found them) but the quantity of feathers makes it very plain that the pigeon didn't survive. This may not be unrelated to the fox.

I am drinking coffee with amaretto-flavoured syrup in it, at 1am. This is probably a really bad idea. But damn, it tastes good.

I've fallen abruptly out of love with Neopets and in love with Subeta. Subeta's not perfect, it's new and can be very glitchy, but a. some of my favourite people in the world are there, b. my virtual pets don't look like shit on a stick, and c. most importantly, they've demonstrated a vastly better attitude towards their players. For example, when they decide to redo their artwork, users get to vote on it. (Bitter? Moi? HELL YEAH.)

And in other news, my mother is now connected to the Intarwebs. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

All the stars in heaven go dim

...also, there's someone I need a mailing address for. Because I mean it about needing to show you Doctor Who. There's a particular storyline I'm thinking of, where the character with the highly varied past falls in love with the golden-haired girl who brings things to life and the man who's worth the monsters; but I am absolutely certain you would love all of it.
