Don't worry too much about the triggery stuff here. Yesterday appears to have been a fluke. A weird combination of seasonal and circumstantial things and getting a little bit too much in my own head. Generally I'm a lot more level than that.

I've done that with shadows of things that are there, too. Usually when I'm half-asleep and suddenly the shadows start doing things that no normal shadow should do (and not happy dancing-shadow stuff, either).

Suckage about the shot in the ass. That's gotta hurt. :(

You also don't have to worry about being comforting. On the whole, I am doing really well. :)
