So this week people have been dying in pairs.
1)Two teenagers found dead in a house in Bellingham. Possibly drug related.
2)Two toddlers from somewhere where there's a pond. One of them learned how to unlock the door and she and her little brother toddled out of the house while their dad was in the bathroom. They died in a algae covered pond belonging to a sewage reclaimation plant.
3)Two old dudes in Wentachee died minutes apart from heart attacks. They were turkey hunting and they spotted one on the side of the road. Stopped the truck. Old Dude #1 gets out runs after the turkey. Old Dude #2, the driver, gets out after parking along the shoulder and runs after Old Dude #1 who he finds lying on the ground clutching his chest with a gash on his head. Old Dude #2 runs back up the embankment and waves down a car on the road for help. Clutches his own chest falls down. Dies. Autopsies pending, but we're pretty sure the tests will come back that they're both old and dead.
So I don't know about you, but I'm going to start keeping to groups in odd numbers.
Of course this still doesn't account for the dude with his mom in a 300 pound block of ice in a deep freeze in the basement.
I'm bored. Bored. Boredom is a form of despair. I am not entertained. I cannot become entertained. I am not at choice in this. There is nothing I can do. I'm BORED!
I feel guilty whenever I get bored too. I have enough brain power. I should have something to think about or entertain myself with all the time. There are people in this world who think TV is entertaining. I sometimes am one of those people but not very often. I write. I read. I play video games. I have conversations. I make up characters. I play pretend. So when I get bored, I'm being lazy. Not can't fix it. But won't fix it.
So now I'm bored and I hate myself. This is going so well. I thought writing was supposed to be cathartic. I think I'm making it worse.
I could start a fight. Quit my job. Break something.
Yep this is constructive. I'm going to stop before I decide to experiment with electricity or something intelligent like that.
