The author is coughing and coughing here. Sore throat. When getting sick, my mind gets sick. Or it gets crazy. Or it gets creative. So many things run through the head. Can't sleep at all or I tend to hibernate. No middle to that. No naps.

Lying awake watching the clock at 3:00 AM go by minute by minute the heart beating slowly. Thump. Silence. Silence. Thump. Silence. Silence. Thump. Sound arrives into my left eardrum that is resting on the pillow.

My attention shifts to the window where obsessive compulsiveness creeps in and the mind seems to forget that if there was an invader on the premises there would be insanity on my part. Would see RED and attack. Fear is for suckers. Self defense is another story. Death comes to us all, no? People who don't care about death see things differently and that does not necessarily mean they have suicidal tendencies. The heart is still beating the same when looking at the window. Slow.

Had to buy a toaster that has auto shutoff because of the OC. Everything that is touched is turned to fire unless it shuts off automatically or has a mind of its own.

Choose RED or BLACK/ODD or EVEN and email me. First 7 people are touching my luck for one day of the week. Every single day that the author is in the city and not traveling somewhere he will go to the casino down the road and put $20 down on said color for that day. If author wins, he will parlay one more bet on same color and keep $20 profit. If he wins again, he keeps $40 profit and walks away. If author loses first time, he will walk away and come again another day. After a month of doing that, what do you think will be the outcome?

When visiting the Lincoln Memorial a few years back it was about 2:00 AM. There was a white bird on the left shoulder and a BLACK bird on the right shoulder. That was ODD.

Have a great day and try to avoid meaningless conversation all day today. It's hard to do.
