Night Blindness

Not long ago (maybe a year or so), it used to be that the last hours of the evening just before going to sleep were the best ones of the day. The school day could be horrible with few or no redeeming moments (as it often was), and better off forgotten, while the afternoon and early evening would be a blur. But the hours after dinner and showering could at least be considered normal, insofar as I could go about my work and play without carrying the emotional baggage of the rest of the day. In a sense it was comforting to know that I had something to look forward to at home, and that the day could at least be salvaged during those hours. But now I’ve been feeling strange during the evenings in the past week.  Hopefully it goes away soon.
