“Everyone, at some point in their lives, wakes up in the middle of the night with the feeling that they are all alone in the world, and that nobody loves them now and that nobody will ever love them, and that they will never have a decent night’s sleep again and will spend their lives wandering blearily around a loveless landscape, hoping desperately that their circumstances will improve, but suspecting, in their heart of hearts, that they will remain unloved forever. The best thing to do in these circumstances is to wake somebody else up, so that they can feel this way, too.”

“I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.”

I have to say
It’s been a week and this morning I woke up thinking it had been at least three.
Then I counted how many and it turned out we have at least 10 to go. I don’t know if I can do 10.
At this rate I’ll be a tired, paranoid and smelly old person sleeping in your gross shirt that will have gone 11 weeks without washing.
yeah, I need to leave the house.

I'm back home
from seeing my friends and my man. I had a lovely week.
2.5 months till he moves here. I’m going to try very hard not to mess things up before that happens.
