A trail of incoherence

Hmm, I'll tell you what, its not the seaweed that's eating me, its the damp salty smell from the wood. Like polluted waters, you know, that bit of the beach you avoid walking over, the line of seaweed, wood and bottles that gets left at high tide mark. Hmm, oh well, I'm seriously not sure where this is going. My pencil case is red and its surprisingly distracting. It's strang (damn, a spelling mistake, makes the page look even messier) anyway, I was talking about the red, but can't be bothered back-tracking. I like being left handed. Kinda like I'm the....
