Just so I don’t have to answer any sabbatical questions individually: - Had a mental breakdown - Spent six months doing mushrooms - Caught Stendhal syndrome - Forgot how to write - Probably not back permanently - Love you I’m so sorry for any messages/emails/calls I missed.

I’m running out of synonyms for sadness. What’s the spiciest way of describing the way ‘Girls Just Want to Have Fun’ makes me feel? It’s in my top five and, I’ve no idea why, but it gives me a soul-aching, melancholic, despairing, haunting, sorrowful (etc) feeling in my heart.

I’m listening to it and (granted, I’m a bit fragile right now anyway) it makes me sob my absolute fuckin’ heart out. Oh, and don’t get me started on that calliope instrumental cover of it from Bioshock Infinite. HOW CAN THAT DUMB SOUND MAKE ME CRY?! youtu.be/mQheaCpjH0I
Due to a self-imposed ban on psychedelics the past year, I now end each day clothed in nothing but dirt, feeling nostalgic for periods of time that never existed. I have a ritualistic, meditative, primal, savage party to the anti-music of Heilung. youtu.be/SVbc_Fwbt50
Do it, you coward!
Me: *Looking down the long list of important and worthwhile things I need to do for my business* My brain: “I should start a podcast-based panel show for copywriters called Whose Tagline Is it Anyway?”

*Didn’t get the message behind Fight Club but it’s their favourite book* *Can recite one Bukowski poem but misattributes it to Hemingway* *Aggressively quirky bookends that house a half dozen colour-coordinated books*
i have done the impossible: i have struck the perfect balance between toxic masculinity and being a litbro (owns infinite jest but has not read it)

Synchronicity. Been reading The Secret History by Donna Tart and the campus location reminded me of a book I read in the early noughties. I couldn’t remember the name or author(s) and spent an hour unsuccessfully Googling. And it’s the first book I saw in a charity shop today.
Scratch all that, Angela Lansbury just died, so I’ve decided to become a mystery writer / amateur detective.
Wore a shirt without a floral pattern for the first time in about 10 years today. A pointless thread 🧵

But I still don’t know if I want to be an astronaut or an archaeologist. I don’t know if I ever will. But maybe I need to stop doing my own taxes for a bit, and stop worrying about all of the plates that I’m spinning. Because I’m beginning to hate the restrictions they bring.

And maybe I’ll find a little more time in my day to figure out if I want to go to space or dig holes. But yeah, I wore a shirt without a floral pattern for the first time in about 10 years today…
