I need you so much closer
The defining characteristic of this week has been the sheer overature of time constraints and activities needing to be done… All of this stress is causing me to dream more often, and the dreams are more and more disturbing. I imagine that what causes this is something like the following;
Like all animals, Casey creates waste must be released from her body in order for her to live. Trees do this by releasing oxygen, aerobic respirators by releasing carbon dioxide, and so on. Casey generates extra "emo" in everyday life that must be released into her journal or some other mechanism. When she doesn’t find the time to release this emo, she suffers from what is formally known as emo obstruction. This is a backup of emo waste that has lodged itself into Casey’s subconcious that causes disturbing and over-emotive dreams which trouble her ability to properly rest. This is supposed to trigger late night emo-release via panicked phone calls and journal entries, however this may not always work. Emo is a toxic substance, and can be deadly when left in the body for too long of a period.
Next week, I’ll draw diagrams.

So I overstimate the distance. We’ll call it poetic hyperbole.
