Trapped Inside and No Way Out

As of late,I've been feeling trapped in my own home.

Walking helps a bit. I can get fresh air as I admire how well the plants are growing in. But the effect is temporary. Gotta go home when it gets dark. Then the feeling intensifies. Like I'm a caged creature that craves its freedom.

With the puppet people around lately...I haven't been able to step outside of my home unless I need to work. Or I have to buy necessities. Which hasn't been too often. When I do go out,I go with a co-worker.

Really worried that they'll hurt someone.

At least the kids have been fine. Lately there have been no shows featuring them. No rumors about any going missing. Or dying.

Let's hope it stays that way.

Will They Follow Me?

I might be going to Seattle this summer. Might. Depends on if I save up enough money for the trip with my friends. Not sure when either. But hopefully we'll be able to go at all. Which would be lovely.

I just want to leave for a while,ya know?

This place feels so cramped and I got this urge to wander. Which isn't easy when there's nothing to do here. And yer broke. Like I am. So I really hope that works out. Also crossing my fingers that they don't follow us.

Can't exactly relax when yer worrying about whether or not the creepy puppet people are on yer tail. Or tell the people I'm going with that I'm being followed. They'll get involved and possibly try to convince me to go to the police.

Not exactly comfortable with getting them involved at all. So let's just hope that certain people stay away from us during that time.

Highly doubt that they will. Still. If yer gonna dream,why not dream big?

Update on My Well-being

I have been busy with work and finding a second job. Only one application I sent in so far seems promising. Pretty sure the other place is full or they don't need someone with my job skills at this time.

Which is fine.

Had an interview at the other place and I believe it went well. Person I interviewed with said that she would speak with her boss. Pretty sure that I'm going to be employed there soon. At least that's what I'm hoping for. I could be grotesquely optimistic about this. Still gonna cross my fingers and hope.

Onto the "fun" stuff. So far the T.V hasn't come on. And all the kids seem to be avoiding a park for one closer to my house. Well closer than the other one at least. It's about a ten minute walk away from my home. If I can believe the rumors that is. And I'm so glad that I didn't delude myself into believing that they left. Just because they aren't around as much as they used to.

Maybe the reason is that people are noticing their weirdness?

One of my co-workers is. She served the hobo one at least two weeks ago and asked me to get something in the back of the shop. I did. With her directly behind me. As soon as we were out of hearing range of the jerk,she asked if he always had strings attached to his joints or if she was imagining that. To be honest...that scared the fuck out of me. But I couldn't tell her the truth ya know? I can't get her involved. Oh but I didn't want to be a shitty friend either. So I did the sensible thing.

Lied and told her that she must be working to hard. That I saw no strings attached to the puppet man. And told her that she needs to sleep more. She didn't argue with this and went back to work. Doubt that she believed me when I said that. My guess is that she didn't want to deal with them.

Don't blame her.

Now I'm worried that my other co-workers are going to see the strings. Not sure if this was just a momentary lapse in magic or they wanted her to see. Either way I'm going to have to keep an eye out for this. Joy.
