disjointed thoughts:
- i am over what has been, in retrospect, a very fast and intense sort of manic phase, lasting from the start of september to about two days ago.
- i am currently feeling dreadful, but i am absolutely not surprised and also confident i will feel better in a week or so.
- for some reason, i am getting my short-term memory back. this has been happening for a couple of months now, to my amazement: i had already concluded that, aside from work-related items, i would not be able to remember anything really concerning events of the past 2-3 years. it all had a fuzzy quality. now it's becoming clear. it's one of the most mysterious happenings ever.
- one of my closest friends really looks like severus snape. i need to tell him.
- the new dropkick murphys record is somehow alive, as is most of finntroll's discography. i have a passionate love affair with folk, apparently. i had the same penetrating (no silly jokes please) effect when listening to some bad religion songs years ago. now, the latest offerings by graffin and co. don't move me. but fast-paced folk does. i'm wondering why.
- my boss reacts to the mere mention of the words "national security" by calling me a fascist. this is a long story, but it is so stupid that i will have to tell it sometime.
- i am, nonetheless, hatching all sorts of plots with people from all sorts of ministries, because fascist or not i am working on a national security issue.
