Wallace is having a crisis of conscience. Has he been doing the right thing all along?
One of his first clients was found floating in the Bay of Fundy.
He has to stop being pissed off and look at what he is pissing on.

From the image and a bit more: Well, young lady, I certainly hope that you don’t have any speaking engagements for the next two weeks. Your screaming has torn one of your vocal cords. A vow of silence, some antibiotics, lots of water and no coffee or other hot beverages.” No coffee? Sylvie felt as if her world were being torn apart slowly. Why? What had she done for the universe to treat her this way? Maybe to harden her up for greater tribulations ahead? She could see her mother talking with Dr. Hacken. “Yes, Mrs. Avery, I just want to tell her goodbye and make sure she doesn’t have any more screaming incidents. On the plus side, you can have ice cream. It will help with any swelling.” Her mother’s comfort was all that she felt like she had left in this world. All her dreams kept getting snatched away from her every time she thought that she was getting closer. ------------------- If you read this much, PLEASE tell me the humor wasn't too obscure. 😁
All the paperwork had been submitted & all the fees had been paid. Last thing you would expect, is a walk out.
Sylvie shouldn't scream so loud.l

Re-read “The Fog Horn.” Bradbury’s evocation of loneliness in the vastness of time still hits like an icy gust on an otherwise warm night. What a master.

Somedays I feel like Sisyphus with more than one rock.
Is that what a writers life is supposed to feel like?
Or is it just another week of ADHD burnout?

Fred expressed concern about Marissa’s erratic behaviour, trying every conceivable tactic to get her to calm down. He first rolled around on the freshly ironed black slacks so that the appropriate amount of non-removable hair had been applied before crawling into the bathroom sink, forcing her to brush her teeth in the kitchen, and making sure to be underfoot no matter where she tried to stand. Fred thought it was for her own good; evidently, she did not really understand cats. Those slacks didn’t work with that top anyway. At 6:01, she got the message that he was here, checking her look one last time, she told Fred, “See you later,” and left the apartment. They exchanged mature pleasantries about how lovely she was and how handsome he looked, and how much they’d been looking forward to this night, while enjoying the short drive. While they knew that there would be a different degree of elegance when you have wing sauce on your face, age has less to do with elegance than it does with acceptance, and both had a certain lack of table manners, which came from being older and eating alone.
Marissa is trying to get ready for a date, Fred is just trying to help.

Woke up with a book idea so potent I could drop everything and devote the next 3 months writing it.
I really wish I had 3 months free. I’m years behind on my other books and this one would be all consuming.
But shit. It’s awesome.

Broke. Tired. But I have my Chucky armor and the weather is perfect. So, to the library I go!

My thoughts, like flies buzzing half #blind around the decimated carcass of my imagination. Nothing left except to sleep, if I could I could only forget the pain.
My joints are filled with #sand, the #ringing in my ears won't stop, and my #pen lays stagnant in my hand.

A marker drawing of three masks floating through a Hell world. It’s all colors and swirling shapes. They kind of look like “The Dream People” from Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare. I just made it for fun.

Sweet, I still have to round up some duffel bags and a couple of boxes.” “I’ll walk you downstairs.” “Whoa, are those the duffel bags you mentioned?” “Yeah, take as many as you want.” “Thanks, but I’m not trying to attract attention. Damn, those things make me jealous of blind people.” “Don’t let Trinda hear you talk like that.” Doobie smiled. “Hear me say what?” A loud voice called from downstairs. “Bernie was saying how much he admired your duffle bags.” “And why would I not want to hear that?” Trinda spoke slowly as she stood, blocking the stairs. “Because I thought you might have gone back to bed.” Doobie lied quickly. “Yeah, they are perfect for what I need, and they look great. I was going to take three.” “Take? They’re gonna cost you ten bucks each.” Bernie felt caught between a rock and a crazy place as he reached for his wallet. Trinda finally smiled as Bernie passed her forty dollars. “You may as well take another one because I don’t have any change.”
From Debatable Morality: Part 2, be careful what you ask for.

Yellow pollen paved pond, fractal patterns painted by the morning breeze. Ferns fighting through fallen leaves to freedom. Morning birdsong on the bank of the babbling brook. The ivory white of winter kill lays beside a fallen oak. What was once now stares with hollow eyes, at a world it left behind.
Late night reading, muse wakes up weird.

A marker drawing of a black mask with green and blue piping. The face piece is orange. The eyes and mouth are blue within blue. Some orange, pink, red, and tangerine colors serve as the background. I call it Pipe Face.
