Man, have I got a lot to talk about today. It’s been a wild past week or so, and I should get this all out. Starting in reverse chronological order:

Yesterday, I got a call from my friend, the one who was reading my OD and sent that email. She told me that her fiance broke up with her Friday night. My mind was blown. I’ve known him for about 16 years and her for 12-13 years. They’d been together a long time and had just planned to get married earlier this year. Well, I found out that he wanted to "figure out who he was before committing to someone forever." I called bullshit, and she agreed that it was out of left field. They’ve been dating for some ungodly amount of time, almost 10 years I think. If you don’t know who you are by this point, there’s something wrong with you. Anyway, she couldn’t talk long, so I sent her a supportive text and went to bed. It’s just so weird. Hopefully, we’ll hang out next week.

In other news, have I mentioned the guy that I booted from my work and I almost punched? Well, I found out that he has tried to force himself on men while they’re asleep. He was harassing me Saturday night and I told him "Leave me alone, you fucking rapist." He didn’t, but I’m spreading it around that he’s a rapist. To me, being woken up by some guy trying to suck your dick is rape. Legally, I’m sure it’s not *quite* rape, but still some form of sexual assault. And that’s close enough for me. A lot of the people he hangs out with don’t really like him but are scared of him. Since I’m standing up to him, they’re finding more reasons not to hang out with him. I’m debating about calling in some favors and manipulating some people in to getting him evicted. Someone suggested that we go a ‘sting’ and get him arrested. I pointed out that there’s no need to do that, he’ll fuck up before too long and I’ll get him popped without any help.

Finally, my mom called me about a week ago and told me that one of her neighbors was screaming all kinds of things at her and she called the cops. I’m tired of listening to her complain about this, because I’ve talked to her about getting a security system, some cameras and a gun to protect herself. This guy has guns, so I would like her to be able to shoot back. She’s doing the same thing that she accuses me of and is not really doing anything to be pro-active in the situation. I’m about ready to wash my hands of the whole affair.

Well, that’s it for now. I have to do some cleaning and run some errands. I also need to go to bed fairly soon so I can get enough sleep for work, but I doubt that’ll happen.

Until next time, space cowboys.

Edit: I cranked out five pages on my short story and put it up on PB. I also made my ‘fiction’ book Members Only instead of Friends Only because I’d like to get people reading the stuff before I do that. Does anyone here want me to put up the pages I wrote?
