Jeff Lindsay
...being torn apart by far too many loyalties that could not possibly live together in the same brain.
Jeff Lindsay
And once again I found myself wondering, as I drifted off to stunned and unbelieving sleep:How do these terrible things always happen to me?
Jeff Lindsay
But what could I do? Be stupid for a while? I wasn't sure I knew how, even after so many years of careful observation.
Jeff Lindsay
When faced with people who have very limited conversational skills and no apparent desire to cultivate any it's always easier to simply go along.
