But this inability to keep up doesn’t make me breathless; I acquiesce to it.

I’m halfway done reading the book. I’m going to finish it, even if i didn’t want to.

An undercover cop in a not-too-distant future becomes involved with a dangerous new drug and begins to lose his own identity as a result. A Scanner Darkly was yet another film that I was not ready to watch when I watched it almost two decades ago. I think I may have given up on the movie halfway through when I realized that the film wasn’t going to become a fast paced paranoid thriller.
