Journal Entry #444: Lately I have been thinking about what doc said: so stupid but maybe I’ll try it. Reminder that he said maybe I should try writing my journal entries from an outside observer perspective, maybe so I can be more kind to myself? I don’t think it will work, especially since who can actually be objective about themselves?! That seems like an exercise in futility. Honestly though, I have had the most crazy week so maybe it would be beneficial to slow things down and be as objective as possible about everything that has happened (from an outside perspective). Exclusive, this just in: news with what perhaps reveals some other things that you all don’t know about me? Stay tuned and buckle in:

Bryan recalled the familiar pattern for a nanosecond before being violently yanked through the open door.

Pit Black - Chapter 1
Chapter 1 T here are stretches of Hollywood Boulevard in which, aside from the glittering stars of the Walk of Fame, it could be any street in any American city. The truth is that other than those stars, it is just the same as the others. The same businesses, the same people, with the same hopes, dreams; the same problems. The film industry’s presence is more apparent here than it is elsewhere, but Hollywood’s tendrils can be felt throughout America, reaching, pulling; a vast Lovecraftian beast existing only to consume.

A Fate that Burns
“I’m hungry.” “Me too.” “Are we there yet?” “Can we stop at the next gas station? I have to pee.” It seemed mid-day had arrived with its usual fanfare as the Gladwell’s car continued to roll down the one-lane highway. Its brown wooden exterior absorbing the sweltering heat, as sweat broke out on its passenger’s skin like drops of morning dew. Long stretches of road opened up, the wind dancing amongst the heat waves, melding together in perfect tango.
