Sup people. It's me Odysseus again. You're probably thinking what did he do this time? Because that is what I would be thinking if I were you. Well I got got back from the Land of the dead which would probably be the worst place I have been so far on this trip. Anyway I made it back to Circe's island and got ready to leave, but first I had to ask Circe about the obstacles we would run into, because you know there's always trouble around the corner that we get ourselves caught into. It's like were going through mud and always get caught in it, only this time we always get caught in danger. Any way Circe warned me about the dangers we would run into and one was the sirens. She told us not to listen to the sirens sing because otherwise they will lure us to our deaths because they'll make us crash the ship. So clearly I wasn't to be frightened, no big deal we'll get through it. NO! WHAT WAS I THINKING, AM I CRAZY, OF COURSE IT WAS A BIG DEAL! Sorry it's been a long trip and I'm starting to lose it. Once I pulled my crazy, tired self together I gathered my men and headed towards the sirens island.
Once we were close I told my men that we were going to come across sirens. I told them not to listen and be smart, but they had to tie me, crazy me, to a mast and not untie me no matter what, and every time I said untie me just muffle me more and what ever you do, DO NOT, untie me or listen! Then I got bee's wax and gave it to my men to put in there ears; I know weird and gross, but it was the only thing I could think of at the time and we couldn't afford to crash. They tied me to the mast and then went back to rowing. All of a sudden I heard very beautiful singing. The Sirens. Okay just pull it together Odysseus. I couldn't help but get lost in the music it made me want to dance and just be happy so I couldn't help but sway. Wait no, keep it together. I finally gave up because it wouldn't matter I was tied to the mast. So I started swaying more, I told the men to untie me because I wanted to go to the beautiful singing but they just muffled me more. I felt so at peace listening to the sirens sing. All of a sudden the singing started to go away. I started to get out of the trance and get back on track and focus. Once we were officially out of there my men untied me.
