Ironic?

My kitchen was revamped last year, and now I need a blind for the window. I have a bit of a horror of naked windows. I write fiction, and I keep getting the urge to write a story about something peering at me from the darkness beyond the glass. I think it’s my dark side made manifest, come to complain about my attempts to get rid of it. It has me feeling sympathy for my dark side. How odd.

That's interesting! I'd say that happens to me sometimes, I think it's a bit of a "creative" thing to be able to sort of look at your "dark" side from another angle, almost as a separate thing from yourself.

Greetings McC. Lovely to hear from you. (I was telling one of my publishing contacts from Ohio about you, by the way. Hope you don't mind. It was complimentary.)

Yes, indeed. I think just about all the creative and/or spiritual people I know find some aspect of their consciousness occasionally standing apart and watching every facet of their natures. I have a theory...

'McCafferty Wants a Horse' is coming on nicely. It's very silly.
