 I remember when the day was only 24 hours long. Life was simpler then. 
 
 Everyday life was still predictable. The sun rose in the east and set in the west, the seasons changed, and all the earth rejoiced at the new life each season brought... 
 
 God.. I haven ’ t thought about the cool dank smell of spring in a very, very long time... 
 
 Ever since Benjamin broke the atomic stabilizer time became.. funny. After that most lost their way.. I am no exception. It took me some time to wrap my head around what happened, for too long I was convinced that I was living in a terrible dream. That I had too much to drink or I had been drugged and had fallen into a some kind of sick nightmare. Truth be told I ’ m certain I ’ m still not entirely sane.. it still feels like time has been strapped to a yo-yo. Some days still seem to fly by in minutes while others drag on for what feels like years. On top of that the days have yet to follow a consistent rate of development... I swear the sun rose twice before it set during that last cycle..*sigh*. I believe all this spontaneity is wearing my mind thin... 
 
 There is a silver lining though I suppose, waking up is always interesting. There ’ s a certain joy I receive from guessing whether it ’ s light or dark out when I awake. Hunting has become much more of a challenge as well. The wild ones don ’ t seem to have noticed the changes since the “ turn ”; However, I haven ’ t yet decided whether this is to my advantage or theirs. Anyway, I can not afford to burn anymore daylight if I want to eat during this cycle. There is also much research to be done if I ever want to repair the machine... 
 
 Until next time,
