Time is different when you’re immortal.

One of the things that I noticed as a vampire is the way time tends to slow down. When I was a human I always felt like there was never enough time to do anything. I didn’t have enough time to read or paint or try that new dance class that sounded fun. However, now that I’m a vampire I have enough time to do a lot of things, but I can’t pick anything. Since the paranormal came back to Detroit there are so many more things to do. Places that were once abandoned have now come back to life. It’s funny how there’s more life here than there was before. I went from being afraid to go out at night to now I have so many choices I don’t know what to do. I think I’m going to that bartending class downtown that has that water demon as a teacher. I might not be able to do a lot of water tricks like them, but it will be fun to learn something new.
