Losing My Mind In Real Time.

Hello.
I have had a bad day. Firstly I had to instruct A how to cook a casserole I said I’d do, because I had an essay to finish, so I desperately needed a sous-chef. And for heaven’s sake, he was cooking for his ex-girlfriend, so I probably shouldn’t have had to cook in the first [...]
