A stranger has been wearing down my shoes.

Isn't that a terrifying image? I'm in love with the whole idea right now. I've been reading about folie a deux, which is "a madness shared by two". One case study cites an older couple who are convinced that "certain persons" are entering their home and wearing down their shoes, among other things.

Shudder.

An open letter to the month of May.

Dear May,

I understand that you are very busy waiting for April to wrap things up, but I would appreciate it if you could pull some strings and arrive today. Please know that you are responsible for my dear cousin's return and without you it can't happen. Thank you for your patience in hearing my concerns.

Love,

Ramona.
