Haunted Thoughts
A few posts back, I mentioned that my place may be haunted because people are falling over and knocking their heads on walls when really, they shouldn't be.
I forgot to mention that around 2 weeks after the initial incident [the one where I fell and knocked my head hard against the corner of a wall], I fell again in my yard. This time, I suffered a nasty cut on my foot and bled quite profusely.
I would've totally forgotten about this if not for what happened this morning.
I was brushing my teeth when I noticed it.
A slash across my wrist!
It wasn't deep enough to stitch but it was deep enough to bleed. I was dumbfounded. A cut right across my right wrist.
I ran out and told my sister and my mother who obviously preferred other reasons for the cut.
My sister blamed it on Nike, our pooch and my mom blamed it on the many bangles I have on my arm.
But.
If Nike scratched me, I would've known. I wouldn've felt it. If he did, he wouldn't have left just one prominent slash across my wrist. There'd be at least a couple of small scratches no? He hasn't learnt how to scratch with only one nail for cryin' out loud! Plus, he hadn't struggled at all when I carried him recently. And why only at my wrist?
If the slash was from my bangles [or one of them], then why only now? I've had those bangles on for months now and I've never had any scratches or marks from them before! Plus, there aren't any sharp parts on my bangles. It's just not possible.
Hell, ghost or no ghost, I am running a temperature. Bad throat and nastier nose. I hate falling ill. Eeerk.

Get well soon, comrade. We need you to keep waxing lyrical about your own malodorous miasma of turgid remorse. By the way, that is the name of my blog. Come visit me, where I travel under the name of The Future, in my communications portal to my ex-partner, and leave a tortured comment. RF
Hi RF,
I would love to visit this communications portal of yours but hard as I tried, I could not decode the name of your blog. I love riddles but sometimes I stink at them.
Good day, citizen. It is in fact called The Malodorous Miasma of Turgid Remorse. The address is www.pathosreceptacle.blogspot.com. It is a work in progress and will be updated soon.
