Love, clear me of time wasted on holding on to flesh and blood

I haven't slept in a night and a half. I would really like to fall asleep before dawn. I feel incalculably stupid.

Courtesy of handful_ofdust: things women in literature have died from. I'm pretty sure "Haven't seen the sea in a long time" is one of my problems.

We are now four episodes into the second season of Person of Interest. I get that a lifetime of imprinting on weird intelligent characters and a six-month immersion in film noir and pulp fiction has left me basically the target audience for this show, but I'm just really enjoying it, all right?

That's a wonderful list. I'm sure not having seen the sea in a long time is fatal: I hope you can remedy that soon.

I once read a Victorian novel (title and author forgotten, but it certainly wasn't literature) in which a woman died of brain fever brought on by studying mathematics.

Thank you. I have to say, it feels like it. I miss spending whole weeks in summer by the sea.

Jeez, it's like Lovelace darkfic.
