2001 / a brief period of rejoicing

"The surest way to corrupt a youth is to instruct him to hold in higher regard those who think alike than those who think differently." -Nietzsche

i am out of the MICU (medical intensive care unit) ... which means that my life will hopefully regain a semblence of sanity. it's been a grueling two months but i enjoyed it. the toll it has taken on me, however, has been telling. i need some rest.
