mind the gap

22 July 2005

I am not adapted back to the time yet. I tried to go to bed at a normal hour and I just laid there, thinking. I got up about 2am and stayed awake until about 5:30 or 6am before I finally fell asleep. Ugh.

I was supposed to go to Essex today but couldn't get up with only 3 hours of sleep so I didn't go. I needed a day to nest too. I got my suitcases unpacked, except the one full of school stuff. That one is just gonna stay put until I get settled in my new place and can dump it at school. It's damn heavy.

I'm feeling unsettled, maybe after everything that happened yesterday or just the jet lag. Frank's wallet and phone were stolen out of his car tonight. Why are people so terrible? Why do they take things that aren't theirs? Why do they go onto trains and buses with bombs to kill and hurt innocent people? Why does it feel like the world is all turned upside down where there is no right and wrong? Is this how it will be when the world ends, where people don't take care of each other, don't care and find it necessary to make their point with explosives?
