An otherwise pleasant evening out with friends ended early because I was getting too anxious. Things annoy me lately that shouldn't; also, my cognitive problems continue. I misremember things, or can't think of a word, or I say the wrong thing while aware that I'm doing so , which really isn't fun. I'm trying to come to terms with the fact that I am going to be alone for life, and it's difficult. However, I ate a really good french dip sandwich tonight. klikitak is hilarious and smart, and I don't see enough of her. Got some great music in the mail today, from Canada: Rough Trade and 54.40 CDs from the 80s that you can't really get down here at all. Thank you, Maplemusic. "Character is psychosis" — Otto Rank
