12

12 more days to my deadline and I'm at the cusp of a foul mood. From now until the end of the month, I will be stressed out, overcaffeinated, sleep deprived, and if I was still smoking, I'll be a walking chimney.

Despite all of this, I found this quotation from Philip K. Dick oddly comforting.

"Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away."
- Philip K. Dick, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Philip K. Dick

I always find something profoundly elegant in Philip K. Dick. I'm liking this quotation.

"Sometimes the appropriate response to reality is to go insane."
-- From Valis (1981), Philip K. Dick, science fiction author
