Worcester Wuss (Night of 25/01/2018)

Walking back from Stanmer Woods - the long path from the village to the entrance. I decide to walk on the other side of the fence that lines the path. I realize I cannot go any further as my way is barred by thorny bushes. I can either climb back over the fence to the path - but I think the fence is barbed wire... or I can go down the muddy and treacherous slope under the thorny bushes. The person I am with, a middle aged man unknown to me in waking life, says that if I climb back over the fence onto the path then I will have failed and be known as a 'Worcester Wuss'.

In a newsagent at night. I have Joe's two staffies, Eva and Arlo. I realize that Joe has gone and left me with both dogs. How am I meant to look after both of them?

There is some kind of insect - a repulsive parasite that looks like a cross between an elongated slug and a black snake. This creature is on a table. Nick decided to put the creature on my neck. I am furious with him. Walking through dark streets at night. Bus-stops. Night-time. Swearing. Graham looking up. Perhaps I will lose it totally. Perhaps I will murder Nick.
