Long story short: I'm being poisoned. I need help figuring out who is doing it.
Long story: Paranoia will have an inevitable effect on this story, so I'll try to keep it as true to the facts as possible.
I drink frequently, and from what I've found, there is no better cure for dry mouth in the morning than a big 2 liter bottle of Gatorade. Lemon lime of course, my favorite flavor. (And color!)
For a period of (roughly) this past year, it's been tasting odd after various periods of time. Me, thinking it was the alcohol still on my breath, thought nothing of it. Given the time of day (3-9 am) I simply went back to bed, often not able to see it.
Finally, it got to the point where the bottle I was drinking out of had an unmistakable not-Gatorade taste. I turned on my lamp, and saw the picture below. It wasn't this exact one. Since it's been happening all summer, I thought thought maybe Gatorade changed their composition. But, I had a half empty bottle in my trunk all summer (100+ degrees) that I took out last week. Tasted fine. That boosted my paranoia that someone was poisoning them.
The last bottle I took to my girlfriends for observation, waiting to see if it would turn into the type shown below. No luck.
Today I made a huge discovery. I was in need of an emergency bathroom, and this bad bottle of Gatorade was sitting there. I went ahead and used it. Ever mindful me decided not to throw it away, and see what happened. Came back a few hours later, and viola! The same culture looking things had started to form.
Now that it seems that someone is pissing in my drinks, here is some history:
I got very VERY sick in February. I mean like can't work, lost 10 pounds sick.
In March, I had a fever of over 100 for a week.
Lately, I've been having other small issues.
I've tried setting up my webcam to record on motion when I'm gone, but haven't had any luck so far. My current plan is to clean my room for a clean shot, then leave a new bottle out.
Some history: It's currently 3 girls and my cousin. My brother moved out. It's happened since he's been gone, so I know it wasn't him.
I've set up a webcam before, and have caught my cousin sneaking around in my room. I'd like to blame it on him, but I can't just unleash this monumental ass kicking I have planned on anyone, I need proof.
I've changed how my door locks work, but it still doesn't stop them. I have a deadbolt and steel reinforcements waiting, but I want to see who this was first. I've made no mention of it to anyone in my house so far. I don't want to scare them off. Moving out is not really an option.
