Fucking Tumblr. The people who use it never give anyone credit for their works. So when I saw this photo in black and white, I assumed it was old. Ellen Rogers set me straight, and I am embarrassed. The photo is by Chad Michael Ward. The model is Katie West. Let us get that straight here and now.
I wrote to Mr. Ward apologizing for using his image unwittingly. He wrote back graciously. I will write to Ms. West as well. We shall see.
I will be exhausted tonight, perhaps too tired to sleep well. Nightmares of the very real kind. Too much projection/imagination creating an apocalypse of the mind. Impossible to deal with in the dark.
Never take advice from ex-girlfriend's about dating. Best never to date at all if you can avoid it. Your date will be exciting for everyone but you (and, of course, your date). Spend your time more productively.
Tonight is Friday night and all I want is a handful of painkillers/mind numbers. Funny. Numbers--something that anesthetizes thought. I will have to tell my math friends.
Thought of your work when I came across this:

I admit to being a bit of a Tumblr addict. Started one myself in Jan. with all images original to me.
