“This sentence has five words. Here are five more words. Five-word sentences are fine. But several together become monotonous. Listen to what is happening. The writing is getting boring. The sound of it drones. It’s like a stuck record. The ear demands some variety. Now listen. I vary the sentence length, and I create music. Music. The writing sings. It has a pleasant rhythm, a lilt, a harmony. I use short sentences. And I use sentences of medium length. And sometimes, when I am certain the reader is rested, I will engage him with a sentence of considerable length, a sentence that burns with energy and builds with all the impetus of a crescendo, the roll of the drums, the crash of the cymbals–sounds that say listen to this, it is important.”

I’ve picked out my cats already.
So usually this whole ‘single’ thing doesn’t phase me all that much. I’m quite happy to be alone. I think. I am not even quite sure what I think anymore.
It has been an era of confusion for me lately.
However, all that I am absolutely certain of is that when I an twenty three I will buy my first cat. And then when I am twenty seven I will buy another two. When I am thirty I will probably adopt one from an animal shelter and by the time am forty five I will be the crazy cat lady that you will not let your children near.
At least I wont die alone…I guess.

I’ve loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
