quite a rare condition

my shaman, phillip j. malara, mentioned something i think could prove to be important. he said i'm perpetually a little bit* late for two minutes from the present. that accounts for my and many of my family members' (probable) longevity. it is a recessive hereditary trait which about 10% of the population has, states my shaman quite frequently lately. people who have it, although they have a greatly lengthened lifespan, end up facing some upsetting troubles towards the end like blurred vision, hearing loss, dizziness and partial invisibility or translucence usually with the development of strong trails or what he calls 'the trailing p'**. philip also says that he doesn't foresee these symptoms becoming apparent in my own aging process for a good deal of time. which is nice of him to say. immediately following this summation, he went to his computer to legally change his name, as he does every other evening to "keep [them] off [his] twisted trail of astral plagiarism and bogus theosophy."
he also is apparently very paranoid, but he has cultivated a generally positive aura for the 1 week i have employed him so far.


one of these women is a carrier of the rare gene (and apparently close to death)


*1 second to be exact. we know this from extensive studies and maths
**the subject's body develops actual trails that are physically present, not the vision problems that cause him to see trails everywhere there is motion.
