Moth Protomorphosis Disease

The last few days have been quite hectic. Let's just put it that way.

Last week was the first full week without our terrible former manager at work; we have been scrambling with our small crew and our lack of authority, but the mood has never been more calm and friendly. Ahhhhhh freedom.

Two days ago, after taking Caleb to work for the day, I got in a near collision with a driver turning left in front of me. I was so shaken, as it was pretty much my first ever disaster like that, so I called into work, saying I'd be there a bit later. I called Caleb and told him the news; we talked online for awhile before he said, "So, what if we moved into Apt. 424 today?" This apartment was in our quad, so we would still be int he same ward and know our neighbors. I thought it was harmless, because there was no way that Caleb would move right before our California trip AND when we were both working the next day. Unfortunately, I called his bluff and before we knew it, we had a key to our new place and two days to move everything and clean the old apartment. Wow. What? No.

But, it is all done now. I mean, our stuff in the new place is semi-chaotic and we have basically exhausted ourselves, which is a completely smart thing to do right before a big road trip. Wow. No.

A story that came from all this moving is the terrible tale of the Moth disease. We had just finished cleaning the old apartment and I was carrying Caleb's suit and rolling our suitcase along in the blackened night, when suddenly, from the left, a large moth flew into my left eye and slashed my retina to disable me. After that was so deftly done, he barrel-rolled into my cornea and then bit the skin below my eye to poison me. I did a Matrix move and dropped the suitcase, scooping the moth from my eye and throwing him across the quad. Immediately, I called out for Caleb, who was pretty far ahead of me. No avail. He did not hear me. And since then (like, 2 hours), where he bit me has been numb and when I blink, a sharp pain happens.

Is it deadly?

We'll see!

The Quiet Inside My Mind

I figured it was time to post again, due to the fact that Caleb has started complaining that no one writes on their blogs anymore. I will start the revolution and I will do whatever it takes to stop the stoppage! So, I guess that means starting to write.

However, what is really drawing me in right now is the past
