New Addictions

There's this drug on the market that is completely legal and I find myself drawn to it whenever I'm not distracted. It's called cafe au lait. I don't know how you pronounce it, because I don't speak Latin or French or whatever, but when I drink it, it gives me this warm fuzzy feeling in my stomach. Actually, I think it's coffee, but with a prettier name. Today was one of those days that I drank cup after cup, and I lost count. Before I knew it, I had passed out on Zillahface's shoulder. I thought coffee was one of those drinks that woke you up, made you more aware and stuff, but not so for me! Zillah woke me up, and explained to me that I'm probably one of those people that is affected by coffee in a different way. That super hyper people sometimes just fall asleep while under the influence of it. Strange, isn't it?

I recently tried something new as well. Since I've been hanging out with Zillahface on a regular basis, I've started smoking on a more regular basis as well. I used to just smoke one now and then, whenever I picked someone's pocket and a grabbed a goodie bag of cigarettes. But he put something in these cigarettes. He didn't want me to smoke them at first, he was pretty adamant, but I twisted his arm, because hey, if he can do it, so can I, right? The cigarette tasted a little different, and I didn't smoke it completely, but it did make me feel a little dizzy, so I layed down for a bit. It was relaxing, but not something I would want to do on a regular basis. I think I like coffee better, anyways. Zillahface says he's going to try to stop using this stuff because it's damaging his body. I hope he's doing it for himself. I wish I could help him.

Oh yes, he kissed me today. That's pretty noteworthy, right? No, he's not turning into a softie! Apparently I begged him to kiss me last night when I was drunk. I don't remember this of course, but we had a little spy, by the name of Naeva, snooping at my cottage door. He says he was a perfect gentleman, and yes, I actually believe him. And believe it or not, I didn't expect it when he did. It was nice, though. -=smiles warmly=- I hope he doesn't forget to give me more. Miss Orchid says we're around each other too much. Well, she didn't say it in those words, but in a nice roundabout way. She's not afraid to say what she means, and she means what she says. I hope the Fates come back to her shop. I know she's pretty bummed about not having them around.

But anyways! I'm going to try and find some coffee before Zillah wakes up.
