Two days no updates - for good reason · 3:09am Aug 14th, 2017
Well last night my car battery died, on a backroad in a creepy location, right in front of a tree that looked like it had eyes and was staring at me. When someone helped jump start it I ended up taking another creepy road through a mist coated area that I really should have taken pictures of.
It was eerily like Terminus's back roads can be.
I also learned my car sounds like a monster when the emergency lights are on but the battery is almost dead. And I may have tried to hide under the dog I brought with before I realized this, because it was scary and I've watched one too many horror movies. And the person in the car that breaks down by the side of the road always dies after hearing the monster's noises.
Oh yeah, I brought the dog with because I was going to take a photo of her in the light of the meteor shower. Obviously that didn't happen, but she looked so cute napping in the passenger seat.
I got back at 1am, missed the meteor shower, and passed out. Then I spent much of the day today trying to charge the battery and find out what might be wrong. As a result, I had no time to work on any stories outside outlining them.
However I did learn my battery was completely dry, and it's having issues holding a charge. Bloody German engineering, I love my car but this battery issue has been going on for a year. It's probably the battery model not the car, I might have to buy a new one.
Anyway, that is why there were no story updates today and yesterday. But I got a really good idea for a new story after The Maresburg Frosting Flood Disaster is finished.
Good things come out of situations like that. And I learned a valuable lesson.
When your car has the check battery light on, don't ignore it for two weeks because a similar error occurs with the check engine light. Because you probably actually have a battery issue.
Not checking it ends with you stuck on a backroad, with a creepy tree and odd shapes running through corn right outside the passenger window. Hiding under a dog, because your car is making noises right out of Christine, but you swear the noises are moving around your car. And you actually did hear something walking on the road behind your car. And you just realized that your car wasn't moving as you are writing a blog to explain lack of story updates for two days.
Well then... I really don't want to think about what might have been behind my car right now. But I survived, who wants a drink so we can all forget this ever happened as I plan a story based off of my harrowing experience?

I'm fairly certain if it was anything monstrous it was a frog man, a large bear, or the mythical were beast in the area. It could also have been something evil in the corn, or a curious bovine; which can be very terrifying in the middle of the night. Or just a psycho killer who lives in the woods on the other side of the corn, it was a backroad after all.
What really spooked me was the thick fog that appeared while I was driving home. The weather conditions were not right for it at all, and there was only supposed to be one bridge on that route not two. It also stuck to my windows, my windshield wiper fluid and wiper blades could not remove it; it then stayed on my windows all the way home.
I tried to wipe it away from the outside when I parked my car safely in the drive, no luck whatsoever. That was the spookiest part, even more disturbing than finding out my car sounds like Christine when it's battery is near dead.
