St. Juan Diego

The Mennonites pulled through as always! I knew I could trust people who live off the fat of the land. They promised they'd take me to death row this Dec. and it turns out they'll take me tomorrow. Just in the nick of time. The prisoner I visit there got taken off death row when the Supreme Court ruled earlier this year that it was unconstitutional to execute juveniles. But he immediately got himself thrown in the hole...from there he went on hunger strike and ended up in the hospital...then he protested by turning on his water and trying to flood the hole...then the COs got spiteful and turned OFF his water for days--illegally, but to prove a point. By the time he was able to call me, he'd been locked up that way for weeks, and I was his first outside contact in a long time. He's still in the hole but he's allowed to see me. Hopefully.
He asked me to print him some jokes off the internet, but all I could find were dirty ones, so I sent him my favorite--a Calvin and Hobbes book--instead. I'll find out what he thinks tomorrow.
Work miraculously (and I do mean miraculously: thanks, St. Juan Diego) got better today. The past 2 days had been so bad I almost ended up crying. Somehow I woke up joyful this morning and took that attitude into work with me. It paid off.
My phone is broken! AUGH! Verizon says they'll replace it tomorrow...I hope so! I'm really into my cell phone. Addicted.
I took E to start his new job tonight--it pays more than double than what I make. It's also pretty cool--he helps set up the Classic Center venue for bands and acts that come through town. The hours are right up his alley too.
Time for bed.....
Sorry I've once again become nonexistent to my friends. I had to work overtime all this week to make up for my vacation time, and in my free hours I've had to prepare for my trip up North. But rest assured I love you all! Muah!
