so i'm sitting here with a phantom's voice reverberating into the back of my head, smelling faintly of campfires and fresh sawdust. i'm kinda a bit shaken tonight. the kind that leaves you sitting with the details still to be sketched out, but the base of it is there. i have a sunburn on the back of my neck that is tingling and making my skin feel tight. my throat is dry and i'm kinda hungry from my stomach, but my head is repulsed by the sound of food. over hot dogs, jason's blood sugar went crazy, something that has never happened. it seemed like a seizure or that he was laughing at something and so my brother and i started laughing with him, until he fell on the ground. he kept trying to eat but he couldn't, like his limbs all were controlled by a different switch that couldn't turn on. the shaking was terrifying and all i could think of was steel magnolias or at least the first 10 minutes of it when they get her juice.
it's a strange tingling all through your body, the feeling like nothing that you are doing is helping and i felt mostly like calling the hospital to make sure i was doing everything right. i don't know. i got ice cream. strawberry. preston got juice. apple

Oh no. I'm so sorry. That's a scary thing, to be sure.
