Fred? I will be late getting to the Yard today. Please let me know when you read this so I can ink it out. I am sick and Bell is threatening to tie me to the bed if I go to work, so I have to wait until he has------- [There's a streak of ink as the journal is taken away from him.]

[The entry continues in Bell's handwriting.] Actually, Fred, Youth

Nevermind about what we had planned, Youth; it isn't as important as all that.

We can talk after Bell decides you are well enough.

[spandexisyouth]

But you wanted to talk and I think that it was important since you wanted to talk right away!

[burntorangesky]

Your health takes precedence over my petty desires.

Don't worry about it so much; it will wait until you are well again.

He's not dying, Fred.

Come over. You can help tie him up. And Lotus and I will give you two alone time for your talk.

Yanno, sick is like bein' injured. Ya gotta rest or you're gonna make it worse.

[spandexisyouth]

But at least when you are injured you did something! And then there is a risk of reopening wounds. You do not reopen something with sickness.

[redhead_rabbit]

Ya end up gettin' sick again instead. Ya don't seem like the type to wanna keep gettin' sick from the same thing over 'n over again, yeah?

[spandexisyouth]

I do not like being sick, no.

Oh, being sick sucks, man. Just sleep it off; best excuse to stay in bed you'll ever have.

[spandexisyouth]

You look for excuses to stay in bed?

[seeya_next_life]

I do~ Sleeping is highly underrated, my friend.

[spandexisyouth]

But you cannot do much if you are sleeping. You can only sleep.
