Neurosis #1
So today I woke up and thought that I remembered that my girlfriend has had hepatitis b and spent a good few hours worrying that I would be forced to stay with her for the rest of my life or live like a leper before I called my mom to make sure I had my vaccinations and she says "oh, you have hepatitis" very non chalantly before casually asking if I have jaundice or something, I said no ma, then she told me I was fine, after that I realized that my girlfriend doesn't actually have anything and even if she did I would be fine because I've been vaccinated, later, this girl that I knew text messaged me saying that she missed me and wanted to see me because she was visiting town to go camping with her friends and that she was at the airport so I immediately believed that she was trying to get me to pick her up so I told her "I can't pick you up at the airport" and she told me she wasn't asking me to which made me feel like a jackass for a little while, afterwords I went to a psychologist who told me I was clinically depressed right at the end of the session so I left thinking about that, then I visited my girlfriend's place and we went to sleep around midnight until I woke up to a man child yelling at his girlfriend for taking some guys numbers at a party, so I went back to my place
also, I bought chocolate sunflower seeds, they were tasty

This is a new kind of writing for Eliot; more introspective, more stream of consciousness . . . the narrator is struggling with something . . . with life in an existential way which emanates . . . would like to see this play out in the life of the narrator over more than one moment . . .

whoa, my head's a-spinnin'. i smiled reading this because it epitomizes the craze, urgency and manic-depressive/nervous tension of a genuinely flustered soul that's just having one of those days i think anyone at one point or another anyone would attest to having. what's next?
