october 17 – spent the day watching the apple harvest. quite a lot of hustle and bustle. bitterman twins won bulk pickage trophy for the 4th year running. hector bitterman can lift a tractor with his teeth. huckleberry bitterman knocked perkins’ prize bull senseless with a head butt. their dad, ezra bitterman, died several years ago after he threw a train into the river. their mama, hannah, is still to this day widely avoided. such is so about the bittermans. i rest my case.

winning entry in yesterday’s walk

‘If you don’t behave, I’ll send you to where the ferns grow, and there you’ll be eaten by the Bad Skoon.’
The witch’s daughter narrowed her eyes and presented to her mother a skeptical expression on her as of yet still smooth green face.
‘Oh, there’s no such thing. And if there is, what is it? And I don’t care because I’ve got my powers ready.’
The witch mother snorted an impressive snort from her long bumpy green nose.
‘Your pitiful powers will be no match for the Bad Skoon. It has a great round lump of a body and 8 long poison fern leaf legs. One touch and you freeze, only to slowly melt until nothing is left but your still seeing eyes, which the Bad Skoon then gobbles up with a terrible gnashing of its daggery teeth.’
The witch’s daughter thought this new information over.
‘Well, mother, I have decided to clean the cauldron after all.’
The witch mother nodded once.
‘I thought you might.’

I wore my wooden socks today.
I deem it a mistake.
The raft of splinters I endured kept me from sleep awake.
I wore my wooden socks today.
I won’t do it again.
Instead I’ll store them on a shelf quite safe from angry men.

5 June – incident in village today. went to old kennedy’s shop to purchase prepared wadding. on entry noticed the widow briscoe crawling along the floor mewing. kennedy told me to pay her no heed. while paying for the wadding i espied a jar of peppermint sticks on the counter. i bought one and offered it to the widow briscoe who by this time had become wedged in the crawlspace at the back of the store. she ceased mewing long enough to thank me before driving the stick as hard as she could into my ankle. people can be strange. i rest my case.
