That last time you were with me
I did not look away from the TV
You tried to talk to me
I do not know what you said
I was not paying any mind to you
I blamed myself for ignoring you
The time we had was short
The time we had was great
I miss you everyday
The next time I heard your name you were gone
The memories I have are joyful
We started to grow apart as my family grew
You watched me grow up
The movies we saw
The trips we took
As time goes by the pain is less
I hope I can be as good as you
Love you and miss you forever

What are some horrifying discoveries found inside the Devil’s Bible?
The Codex Gigas, or Devil's Bible, is the largest surviving medieval manuscript. It measures 92 cm tall, 22 cm thick, and weighs 72 kg. Created in 13th century Bohemia, the Codex Gigas contains a Vulgate Bible and a compendium of Bohemian knowledge. Remarkably, handwriting analysis suggests the entire book was written by a single scribe, a task that would have taken an estimated 20 years. The calligraphy throughout the Codex Gigas is astoundingly consistent, showcasing the scribe's unwavering precision and skill. The most striking illustration in the book is a full-page depiction of the Devil, shown crouching with raised clawed hands and a snarling expression. Legend claims that a monk named Herman the Recluse, facing punishment, promised to create the book in one night to earn redemption. The story suggests that Herman sought the Devil's help, who agreed in exchange for Herman's soul and the inclusion of the Devil's portrait. While the tale of Herman the Recluse and the Devil's involvement is merely a legend, it adds to the intrigue surrounding the Codex Gigas. The Codex Gigas remains a testament to the knowledge, artistry, and dedication of its mysterious creator. So, if you ever get a chance to see the Devil's Bible in person, do it. Just don't blame me if you have nightmares about that creepy Devil picture later.

On Winning and Losing
Recently, the pleasant surprise of placement on the Vocal Bonus Leaderboard sent me down a rabbit hole. Now, rabbit holes are a pretty common place for me to spend time, but I don't always feel the call to write about them. To be honest, the thought of sharing some of them mortifies me.
