This Caretaker guy that Cathy keeps talking about seems like just another average tool in the shed. I don't know how we haven't caught him yet but I know if he decides to keep the creepy scrapbooking up we'll find him and kick his ass. Maybe he'll even tell us where Cathy is so we can finally get her away from that thing.
I've been keeping Cynthia from getting on the blog. There's no need for her to get involved in a shit storm again seeing as it almost broke her last time. I think that therapist that she sees actually helps though. She's calmer than she's been in weeks. Maybe that psychotherapy mumbo-jumbo isn't such bullshit after all. Simon says that she just needed someone to unload on, even if it's not the full truth. Says I'm not the best option for that and I guess he's right. Who wants to talk to their sociopathic father who looks like a pirate? Not many kids, I think.
Speaking of Simon he's been getting more uneasy. I think the pictures got to him more than us cause' we're used to crazy things like that. He's always triple checking the locks and making sure the alarm is on. Not that I'm complaining since some security is better than none, I just think in the long run a few dinky bolts aren't gonna hold what's really after us away.
As for me I've been spending my days by myself mostly. Valentine's Day came and went and, fuck, I don't remember much of it since I got drunk pretty bad. Simon says he kept Cynthia away from me so at least he's not totally useless. I'm not paranoid but I'm not carefree. I'm somewhere in between where I've become so jaded with all this supernatural bullshit that I'm not really surprised by anything anymore. I don't think it's a good thing for me to not care as much, but it comes with the time spent having to deal with all of this.
How are all you kiddies doing? Keepin' your asses outta trouble?
Not particularly, but it's sweet of you to ask.
ReplyDelete...I hate to ask, but it just occurred to me that you're probably my best option. For how long can you regularly slice open your arm and cut things out of it before you die of blood loss? Like, how long is that a thing that can go on while you're on the road?
It all depends, kid. How deep are you cutting and where are you cutting? Small cuts you can keep up forever if they don't bleed long. Deeper cuts you can't. You'll bleed out or accidentally slice something important since you're not a doctor.
ReplyDeleteAnd if you're on the road while doing this I would not recommend it. Your arm will probably get infected and then things get really bad. Why exactly are you cutting at your arm?
It's not me, it's Michelle. She had a bad burn that got infected with... something... and now these white root things keep growing inside her arm. She's been slicing herself open and cutting them out of herself without me knowing for over a month now. Cuts are mostly in the proximal part of the forearm, but some are above the elbow as well. They're only half an inch to an inch deep, but they're on all sides of the arm, and they don't seem to want to heal properly.
ReplyDeleteWent and read up what you were talking about on your blog. From the sound of things she's got some sort of weird ass supernatural infection. I've never heard of anything like it before so as far as cures go you got me. I think, and I hate to say it, you need to cut the infected arm off.
ReplyDeleteThere's only so long you can keep slicing at an arm that deeply before it can't take anymore. I'm surprised she's kept it up this long without her cuts getting infected with something else. I know this answer isn't the one you want but, damn, if you don't have a cure in the next week or two you need to think about the long term effects of an injury like that. One less arm is better than being dead.
You sure it's just her arm infected?
