backdated to birfdays (Oct 3)
The past year was undeniably slower than the rest. It's such a pointless little thing to note....I suppose when one's lived as long as I, it's only natural to notice a subtle shift in an endless span of monotony. But that was the purpose of coming here, wasn't it? A change of pace from those demanding brats and every other lowly toady to boss around. I found what I was looking for -obviously, yet I have to admit it was a little more than what I predicted. What with cheating death, and Naval...
This day is a blunt reminder of just how old I've gotten over one hundred thirty years; birthdays have lost their significance. And for all this pathetic heap of a school has managed to throw at me, there are still some things of worth to be found. It's the equivalent of wading through nearly 2000 square meters of garbage looking for little treasure, but I've gotten used to making personal sacrifices for the sake of my kingdom.
....old habits die hard, don't they? I've tolerated this world for so long, I have to wonder if my death would be a quick and unpredictable one similar to the one several months back. It makes me physically sick just thinking about it. Such a tiresome cycle. I always seem to feel tired nowadays.I give myself five years before finally kicking the bucket.
But I've managed to surprise myself before.
It's been quiet. Too quiet. I like it.
And unless anyone here has some kind of penchant for cruel and unusual punishment (not you Leon), it's going to stay this way unless I -or Lord Bowser- say otherwise.
