Life has been a bit chaotic lately. (And when I say that I’m referring only to my personal life, because my uninformed self isn’t going to go anywhere near discussing the current state of the world.) Things haven’t been consistently chaotic, I’ll admit, but certainly enough that it’s been noticeable, especially in retrospect.
