(via tinyparcels)
I could only think of totalizing words to describe the feeling. Like a sickness descending or a snowstorm, every cell in my body felt burdened with the new sensation.
At 7:30 PM it was too early to go to bed, even by my standards. I waited. Drank a cup of water, watched Seinfeld and did the crossword puzzle. The night approached slowly; I felt the way I used to feel in church when I sat there calculating the percentage of service left over after communion. I firmly believe that the desire to control time is just another way of slowing it down.
