'How happy is the blameless Vestal's lot!
The world forgetting, by the world forgot.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind!
Each pray’r accepted, and each wish resign'd'.
- Alexander Pope


Still feeling sad. Also very apprehensive about tonight/this weekend. Kinda like the first day at kindergarten, except ppl are older and have perfected the cliquey meanness of our times. joy.

Tried reading a book on happiness yesterday. failed miserably.

My one moment of happiness in the last couple of days, found out I was chosen to participate in an international Berlin conference thing. But, that one moment was replaced with...any guesses?...apprehension and a little regret. Yeah, maybe the whole thing's a fluke...they accepted me rather quickly, plus, I gotta find a way to get there--so it's not really all expenses paid...

Anyway, info on the thing is on the site--aidedemocracy.org.

Sigh.
