Like sand through the hourglass, so are the Jays of our lives.

Drama, drama, drama. I have a place to live now. I'm moving in with my friends Heidi and Joe. Heidi is overcoming her heroin addiction, she hasn't used in 2 weeks and is doing well on her meds, and the constant smell of pot smoke isn't too terrible, it reminds me of college. :/ They have a couple of really sweet dogs who have already adopted me. :) There was the possibility of moving in with Peggy, which I would have preferred, but that didn't work out due to a potentially dangerous situation with her ex-boyfriend. He moved in with her about a month ago and as soon as she added him to the lease he went Jekyll/Hyde on her and started threatening and intimidating her. Several times over the past few weeks she's told me she's kicking him out and breaking it off, only to turn around the next day and tell me he's cutting back on the drugs and drinking and they talked it out and blah blah blah ... Over the past few days it's culminated in him refusing to sign a paper to remove him from the lease unless she pays him for the rent he paid for last month and the money he spent taking her out. He's left threatening messages on her voice mail and she's afraid to go home. I told her she should call the police but she's afraid of reprisals against her family and friends, which he's threatened, if she does. He got her fired from her job yesterday by showing up where she works and harassing her and the customers and other employees. They gave her the choice of quitting or being fired. But, plus side, he's the last drug dealer she'll ever date. I think people like him are the real problem with the pot trade. It's not the pot itself, which is less damaging than alcohol, but the criminals who are involved because it's not legal. I hate that he makes me feel all testosteroney and violent, I'm really a very gentle and mellow person but I feel like grinding his face into the asphalt. Which I could do if I had to because he's a very small man. So, anyway, she terminated her part of the lease and will be living with her sister until she gets a new job. And that's about it that's going on in my life. I'm going to the library tomorrow to get a book that my daughter wants me to read, The Hunger Games. I know nothing about it, but she insists that it very good. :)
