Day 4, evening

Oh my God I am so going to regret this tomorrow. We went out for dinner tonight, and with my lunchtime buzz wearing down, figured I'd re-up and I soooo overdid it.

All is well, I guess. Zim seems to be in higher spirits. But won't go into any detail about exactly what he thought he was doing.

Alas, these are the sacrifices you make when you love madmen. Knowing Zim, it's almost the kind of thing I would brush off. But this is different. Zim seems different. I've got a bad feeling that rum won't dull.

But we did plan on everything being different. That is what we wanted. I should have been more specific.

Tomorrow is our last day in Denver. The next morning we'll head for Estes Park. I've decided that, yes, the ridiculous expense of staying at the Overlook is totally worth it. I adore Stephen King. I hope I get some ideas while we're there.
