Variety Cryptic 5: Ghost in the Machine

 Can you believe that the last barred grid I put on this blog was in JANUARY? Like, hello - time, what is it and why does it fly? In all seriousness, these last few puzzles have really helped me hone my skills and were just fun to make. I want to thank all my friends who've helped form and shape my style of puzzling and who have just been all-around good people. Y'all are great. Life is a thing that will exist whether it is there to be lived or endured. The last puzzle I put on the blog was about a month ago (that whole one-puzzle-a-week thing was fun while it lasted). But the reason I set puzzles stays the same, I find it fun. I hope you find my puzzles fun too. [Thank you to skaldskaparmal for test-solving] ( pdf ) ( Sheets )

Test-solved by the ever-helpful  skaldskaparmal . I hope you have fun: (sheets) (pdf)
