I didn't realize my overwhelmed mind was so musical.
I'm getting a lot of psychosomatic stuff still, normal at times, then nervous, the tiniest of things sending me surging towards incoherence. I was blaming it on drugs, but time frame is making me wonder if it's not just lingering mental fragility from the other day.
It's starting to look like I'm the Niles to my sibling's Frasier, not the other way around. LOL. I definitely am the snoodier of the two inexplicably (over-)intellectual children. Please tell me somebody else watched that show.

shit, brah. imho. You happy now?
But really, I do have a suppressed desire to try my hand at the short story. I'm crazy intimidated by the prospect, 'cause I read enough to know what something good looks like. I'd have to structure it oddly too, as a very solitary person, any dialogue would be crazy stilted. Then again, if Hemingway got
Across the River and into the Trees published, it might not be a problem (I could not even finish that one, and he's one of my favorite authors).
Man, kinda wish I could come across an English copy of that collection of Hahn Moo-Sook's short stories I once owned, gave it to my Modern Japanese History professor after I accidentally ripped the cover off his copy of Mishima's
Spring Snow that I had borrowed. I was somehow gonna make a point about short stories by Asian authors. Whatever.
