07. Funeral for Roger and Jacelyn Lurch

1993 Aug 17

I'm supposed to be able to share my grief, but nobody is around. I went on Everquest and told people, and other people had even crazier stories. I don't know if they're real.

Nothing is ever going to be normal again. I'm living in a time of plague. News says millions of people are going to die in the next few weeks. People who haven't gotten sick are supposed to stay far away and hide for as long as possible, even if they start starving. Just keep drinking water and stay inside.

I dug two holes in the back garden. I'm so fucking stupid, I didn't even dig them very deep. I was crying and couldn't see. My dad's shoes are poking out of the dirt. I got them sick, and they didn't get better like I did.

I'm the WORST son. I shouldn't even be alive. Nothing is ever going to bring them back and everything is broken forever. Never in history have things been as fucked as now.

Fuck you, world. FUCK YOU.
