some words freak me out

some words freak me out, man. sometimes when i stare long enough at certain words they begin to look...weird. the word, "enough" does not look right to me. something is supremely off about that word and i do not like it. enough. i'm sorry, i had to type it out again just to make sure i spelled it correctly. nonetheless, i am once again, freaked out by words. it's typically just the way the words look, but sometimes what the words mean can rattle my bones. i'm doing my best to not let any words ruin my day anymore. unfortunately there are times when a word gets the best of me, and i just have to take the rest of the day off. here's a list of some other words that just really give me the willies:

• science
• colon
• fossil
• chimpanzee
• marmalade (marmalade itself freaks me out, what is marmalade)
• barrel
• double album (i know, two words)
• fat
• put
• prandial (?)
• multimedia
• the marines
• saccular 
• gauntlet
• orientation

the saying, "words are just words" should be on halloween decor, that shit is freaky.

the other night

the other night i awoke to the sound of somebody rustling in my kitchen. this scared me doubly so because i live alone. instead of getting out of bed to check on who was terrorizing my home, i decided to go back to sleep and just let it happen to me. for some reason i had absolutely no issue with just falling right back asleep as i got ransacked. the next morning, i woke up asking myself whether it was a dream that someone marauded the shit out of my home or not. i got out of bed to go see if there was any damage. to my complete surprise, they took literally everything in my home. this was a shock because when i had gotten out of bed, i had decided that i was just having a dream. i wanted to be angry, but i knew i just didn't have the right to be. from me playing myself, to the fact that they managed to steal my antique bookshelf that required a dolly to carry out; this was impressive on every level. these guys earned everything they stole from me.
