Whenever anybody asks me what I would like for my birthday or any special occasion, I always seem to ask for candles. I don’t know why I have this irrational need for more candles. I have plenty and they are all over the house.

I tell people that I collect them, but I don’t think that is really the case. I think I have some deep seated problem that has yet to come to the surface. I want to see a doctor of some sort about this but have never really found the time.
