Amityville Bedroom

Amityville Bedroom

Jack-o-lantern eyes
spy me Amityville style
What comes next? The flies?

I am reticent to divulge just how janky my bedroom set up is, but it makes for a fine story. I have very, very dark curtains on my bedroom window, because the slightest bit of light will wake me up. These curtains don't fit, so on one end there is a dark towel tacked up to cover the last bit of window. Janky #1. These curtains are not on a rod of any sort, they are just tacked up above the window. Janky #2. Since they are not on a rod, there is no way to pull them open, so I use one of those little bungee cords to gather them together in the middle and let in some light during the day. Janky #3. It is when I do this that my window becomes an evil Amityville Horror face that scares me. When I come in at night and it's still light out, the triangular bits of window that are illuminated look like a giant jack-o-lantern face that is there to kill me. Where I sleep. I truly, truly have to get this fixed. Or become an adult, whichever comes first.
