Note from an alternate reality

This will be a low listening time today (September 19) had to sleep, and it was wonderful.

Dad's saying his most bonkers things at night, but daylight sees some slippages, when we went to the cannabis shop yesterday he asked if there was a dog beside me?

But i cannot keep telling the good community here about my dad, i just want to make it clear that it's like a living hell for me. I don't want to be a sympathy hoarder, and whenever i talk about domestic matters that's what it amounts to.

I will finish The Warden this early evening, i so love and need novels from the 19th century, the manners and mores, the way people talked with each other and the concerns they had, what was entertainment back then is like a medicinal alternate reality i want to swim in like a literature fish being in a sea of novels, and select non-fiction, Leighton Pugh reading Pepys' diary will be gotten, and yes, the 24 credit gets specified in my post of 125 in 105 days will have to change, the horror stuff i already have will suffice for October, i need 24 new classical audiobooks.

Don't pity me, i'm a very selfish guy doing what he needs to do to enjoy himself with a father spiralling out of control mentally, as i go mentally out of the loop in a more pleasurable manner.

I am sorry to hear about your dad.

I love 19th century literature as well.

I am currently reading a book about the history of Pepys's diary.

@TheYawnArchive yeah if you had money, it was ideal.
It's fascinating to read how they lived and the hardships some went through.

@Lilymoon Oh for sure, poor folk were going through a hell back then, Les Miserables paints quite a picture, but with lots of inspiring acts.
