Dear Saffron;
I’m afraid sometimes/ you’ll play lonely games too,/ games you can’t win,/ because you’ll play against you”
– Dr. Seuss
This quote by Dr. Seuss fits perfectly with what I feel a lot of the time in regards to L. It’s hard watching her suffer. And most of the time she suffers in silence. She is very good at hiding what she really feels. A lot of the time I feel like I don’t know what’s going on in her head.

Happy New Year!
I was interrupted mid-post and so I will continue on…
Things are looking up. I did well on my LSAT. And L and I are on our way home from a 2 week holiday in Mexico with her parents. She is doing better, but still not great. All she talks about is how much she hates life and doesn’t want to be going back to school. I keep telling her that if she doesn’t feel like she can handle school that she should talk to her parents. They have already offered to take her out of school if she is so inclined. Then she just started whining about how life isn’t fair and if she was normal everything would be a hundred times better.
There is no reasoning with her.
Apparently this is normal.
I hate it.
