*sigh*
Now that I can look back on it with relative sanity, I suppose I had some fun yesterday. Annoying-Acronyms Girl was there, though, and proceeded to show off her marvelous singing skills by almost shattering my eardrums with some rather flat high notes. Ugh. And also singing "No One Knows Who I Am" in this weird, low voice. All of which made me selfishly feel good. Maybe I can't sing any better, but at least I don't advertise it.
But enough slander.
I think I'm right on the edge of being moody, at that point where I can analyze and recognize the tendancy, and mock it wryly, but still feel its influence.
I also feel this weird kinship to Jekyll. I can be fascinated with and intrigued by Hyde, but I can look at Jekyll and think "Yes, I can see why he did this, said that, I would have done the same." Because I would have. If it came to sacrificing a human life or two in the pursuit of a great scientific breakthrough, I would do it. If finding the cure for AIDS or cancer caused the death of a couple of already terminal patients, I would mourn and honor them, but I wouldn't think of letting it stop me. Nor would I let the church, my peers, or my rivals stop me.
