What Shooting Star?
With the Perseid meteor shower peaking now, it could have been a good moment to wish upon a shooting star… But what shooting star can I see from here, boxed in by all these other buildings and considering all the light pollution? I can barely make out a few actual stars, probably eight if I try hard enough.
But at least my wish would be the same one it’s been for the past four years… I guess I might as well wish upon stars. It’s not like it’d take, or be, anything short of a miracle, is it?
Yes, been more down in the dumps than usual once again these days. Since Saturday night, to be exact, when I realized that I just have those two pictures.
Then again, I’ve been saying that I’ve been more depressed than usual so often that I guess I should consider this to be the norm and see the days during which I feel somewhat less awful as unusual. Either way, I’m still as worried and scared as usual, about how she’s doing in general and about a certain issue you should already know about in particular. Right now I feel too sorry for myself to even be up to feeling sorry for myself in writing, which doesn’t happen often…
Otherwise, to use a single post for all of this, a front tooth decided to start hurting when it touches something cold. At first I thought it was another, but eventually I think I identified the real culprit after I noticed a small brown spot on it. Should see a dentist soon, before it starts hurting on its own, but of course the thought of that really scares me and the one I went to two years ago is on vacation just now anyway. Maybe the tooth will allow me to wait until she’ll get back, because a vaguely familiar face could help a little bit.
