Coffee… Such ambrosia… I didn’t go far last night. Had to reassure Head In Chest and Sir Nathaniel. Sir Nathaniel actually dropped his top hat in surprise when he saw my discombobulated date. So I spent half the night in nightmare mode, holding HIC’s hand. No matter what state I’m in, I still know friend from…

Last night I learned two very important things. When I let an emotion take the lead, I am very one-track minded and that focus taps into power I didn’t know I have. Snake is a bad-ass motherfucker that has been holding back all this time. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to restore my…

Ah. Home. I don’t have any work to do tonight, so the briefcase can sit by the door. It’s good to be home. The click of the self-locking door behind me is so comforting. So why am I not at ease? And why is everything in shades of sepia when I know the decor is…

It was supposed to be a daydream. A real, honestly made, 115% distilled fantasy with no connection to any dreams, entities, or obligations. Just me, my ego, and enough background music to keep me from falling fully asleep. I wasn’t supposed to leave my head. And so it went. Until I looked up and saw…
