So…last night, when I was in bed. I kept hearing a voice. I can’t remember what it was saying, but I do remember it getting madder as I was yelling at it to stop. I just wanted the damn voice to stop, and I couldn’t make it stop! Oh man that was annoying, so very annoying that it wouldn’t stop and I couldn’t make it stop. Life feels so difficult at times with these voices doing whatever the hell they want to do in my head. I can’t seem to shake them. Maybe I need to be put on a different medication? I’m not sure. I just want to feel normal, whatever normal is. I’m not even sure I know what normal is now! Talk about a nightmare. A living nightmare that I cannot control in any way, shape, or form. I want it to end somehow. I don’t even know how to make that possible.
Ah the sock puppet. Where to begin where to begin. I suppose it all started in another life. 1910 to be exact. I was a shoeshine boy on the corner of 5th and Broadway. Well, one day as I was shining a fella's shoes, instead of paying me he gave me a sock puppet. Yep, I got a used sock puppet. He had said she always brought him luck, so I took it, cursed at the guy for not giving me money and went on my way. He was the last shoe shine of the day.
Well I tell ya, that sock puppet wouldn't keep quiet. She was always talking about this that and the other. Her stories never got old though, yep she had dreams of moving overseas and seeing the world. Well, being a sock puppet, she could never get over there. Poor lass. But she did keep me company on those lonely nights when I had no one to talk to.
Now Peach, the Jelly Bean. Well, that's an even longer story... we'll get to that one in a moment or two... :-)
