"I became insane, with long intervals of horrible sanity."

-Edgar Allen Poe

An exceprt from the movie 12 Monkeys...

It's a condition of "mental divergence". I find myself on another planet, Ogo, part of an intellectual elite, preparing to subjugate barbarian hordes on Pluto. But even though it's a totally convincing reality in every way...I can feel, breathe, hear...nevertheless, Ogo is actually a construct of my psyche. I am mentally divergent in that I am escaping certain unnamed realities that plague my life here. When I stop going there, I will be well. Are you also divergent, friend?

-L.J. Washington

Francis' Vengeful Return



Lacey says:

He's not a tumor. At least that's what they told me.

I got a migraine tonight. I really hate it when that happens. It's just a waste of time.

Funny thing, though. I noticed I get these lumpy-type things in my head now when I get one. I can actually feel the little fuckers when I press on certain parts of my head. Like a little pearl. And if I run my fingertips down the right side of my head, I can feel a ripple of them all the way down to my neck. Trippy shit.

...I tried to kill Francis, and he only multiplied. He's a tricky little bastard. I fended him off for tonight. Ibuprofen, a muscle relaxer, and some good ole fashioned herb saw to that. But he is obviously still waging his war. And if I am going to win this thing, I may have to come up with some new tactics. Something to really razzle his dazzle.

Bring it on, fucker. Pain is what I do best.
