I think I've bitten off a little more than I can chew.
It's nothing new to run this type of business. It's not even particularly difficult. But it's not mine, and the employees know that. Morale is down, and I don't even know if any of them really trust me enough to follow my lead.
Then I'm so bold as to try to take Angel's place in helping Faith? What the bloody hell was I thinking? Too much whisky, clearly. It's obvious she views me as more than she should, considering our history. It's only because I was her Watcher. She doesn't even know or want to understand the real me. Not really.
And, of course, this means I'll have to constantly be watching my back. I doubt Gabriel will be pleased if I make any sort of progress with her. I'm still unsure as to whether or not I should include Buffy. Given what Faith told me, I fear it might just make things worse. Not that they shouldn't work out their issues, but that's not really what this is entirely about.
And of course, Illyria... What dare I say about that?
Nothing. Nothing at all.

I can't seem to find any of the notes I'm looking for. I never misplace them. My filing cabinet seems an utter mess, and to top it off, the key to my flat's gone missing.
Illyria, did you take it? I said I would make you a copy. I just can't today - there's really not enough time.
