Give up already
Mental Health
Aziz had met an inquisitive Spaniard earlier that day, the kind dressed in red robes who wanted to know a great deal of personal things about Aziz, such as his religious convictions and whether or not he would like a piece of bacon. The man had seemed nice, except for his habit of occasionally bursting into more or less maniacal laughter.

Not a re-run, for a change

"No price is too high to pay for the avoidance of awkward conversation," said the life coach. "Pretend to be blind, or only go out in public in disguise, whatever; just don't get stuck asking boring useless questions you don't even care about the answers to."

Mental Health
Somewhere off in the distance, a mournful cry erupted, rending the air with ultimate disappointment and despair. I smiled in the windy dusk, knowing that they had found each of their backpacks turned inside out, the contents replaced, and zipped back up. The smile widened as I knew they would never catch me: my head start into the hills, and the darkness which surrounded me, would give me a clean getaway.
