Some thoughts for the day, and a story.

Feed the Zombies
Open your mouth

Kill your television
I own stock in SONY..

Okay. Now the story.

There's this place I go sometimes by the Charles to relax, catch a cool breeze, and do some nature watching. It has a nice little bird blind so it's hard for the creatchies to see you 'til they're too close to notice.

Now, I've noticed some rats scurrying around in the woods, but I didn't think much of it. I figured they were just after the natural food & the food people give the ducks...

Quack

Anyway, I figured they were your run of the mill River Rats...
Now, occasionally, as it's so early, I'll close my eyes & just listen to the sounds, studying them for their natural music. & occasionally, I fall asleep. A few times I've noticed footprints in the dirt near wher I've dozed off, & figured, "Oh, it's probably just the squirrels"...

I noticed they've knocked over a beer bottle or two, and hung there... hmmm..
hehe...

So, I didn't pay it much mind, even when one of them came in during a nap & ate the wild mushrooms growing on the wood..

Like I said... River Rats... harmless...

Anyway, (besides that day I'd noticed footprints under the blanket I use, where a piece of chicken fell out of my sandwich).. these incidents didn't seem to amount to much..

Until

The morning before last. I decide to take a nice cool nap in the breeze of the river, and well, did it. Sleepy sleepy. Ahhhh...

Then, after a while, I felt this funny sensation on my back, like something crawling around.

I thought it was a dream.. Ho hum...

So I move, the funny sensation ceases, & I return to my slumber.
Shortly afterwards, I feel it again. Woe. WEIRD.. WHAT'S GOING ON?

All @ once, the scurrying stops, & I felt, well... a pair of teeth in my back.

The fucking rat was TRYING TO EAT ME.

ALIVE.

Now here's my theories:

1: It's either an evil mutant rat from hell engineered by one of the local universities to patrol the empty spaces of Boston @ night..

2: A monsterous vile ghetto beast out for a stroll, (translation: A sleeping human to brunch upon) or,

3: A evil, evil reincarnated human stuck in rodent form, unwilling to reform....

What do you think?


P.S. Why do I have to have such synchronicity with someone thousands of miles away. It most strange.. of course, it could be the "great minds think alike" or "Group mind" as the Theosophists call it.... but geez. Mute ? BTW
