Matters of Graves Importance: Food trucks for First Capital Rotary First Thursday
I think I picked up something after a show and brought it home with me from Nelsonville. Something as in a spirit. A ghost if you will. Weird things have been happening. Sunday morning I woke up at 6:30 for my usual early morning bathroom visit and as I was sitting there doing my business, out of the corner of my eye, my face scrubbie slid into the sink as if something knocked it in there. Then, my toothpaste fell forward in the crock I have it and my toothbrush in.
On Monday, the Alexa in my bathroom started playing a song titled "I Can't Understand" and no one was around but me. The house was silent. On Wednesday I worked on something for my boss and two times in a row when I tried to save it, it disappeared. I typed it again, took photos of it with my phone so I could redo it in another format and, as soon as I snapped the photos, my phone died. When I plugged my phone into a charger and opened up my photos, the photos were not there.
At this point I am trying to call Sam and Dean Winchester and shopping for sage. Possibly in the market for some holy oil. If this ends up being my last column, blame my bathroom ghost. If it doesn’t put the seat down we will have words. Keep reading the following words and find out what is happening in Chillicothe this weekend.
