I had a reprieve from the calls and emails today.  I dunno if that's because whoever it was got tired of playing silly buggers or because I was vocal about getting the cops involved or what....but the usual lunchtime onslaught of crap didn't happen today. 

The attorney who gave me the advice to initiate a police report came and sat at my desk this morning and asked me how it was going.  She's an absolute sweetie...a truly nice person.  Come to think of it, I work with an awesome group of people.  From the lowest ranking Airman all the way up to the OIC, everyone is friendly and approachable - and everyone is willing to teach me things I've never done before but give me the freedom to steam ahead with things I'm competent with.

I dunno if this reprieve is going to come to an end tomorrow.  I can hope that it does, and prepare to be swamped again....if it does happen the only thing I can do is notify the PD and have them come and collect more evidence.  The more times it happens, the more evidence they have.  But, I'm not mad about it anymore.  I don't like it and I won't tolerate it, but I'm not furious about it.  It took too much energy, it permeated other parts of my life, and I'm not having that either.  The time I spend online is but a small part of my day, of my life....and it's silly to let what happens in cyberspace interfere with and sully any and everything else that I do.

I had a good day today.  It was good because I found out that Missouri recognizes my South Dakota concealed carry permit  (not that I'm going to go across the river just so's I can carry a handgun concealed...but it's useful information to have), it was good because I got to spend a chunk of this afternoon with my husband, it was good because the sun was shining and it was warm outside...it was just a happy day. 

How was your day?

Yes, I'll limit what I'm saying. I don't want to be subpoenaed! (That hardly looks like a word...) It's best I don't get draw myself into a matter where attorneys are involved.

I've noticed a lot of bad anon impersonations lately.

I would like to offer my solidarity in these trying times my dear. There are many out there who seek to curtail the freedom of others and their right to live a tranquil life. We must all must stand together, whether Tory or New Labour, to stop these attacks. I wonder my dear, have you contacted those American peasants the ADL about this? I hear they are not always successful though.

Why? Was it the gun comment? In all the years I carried both on and off duty, I;ve never pulled or even considered pulling on anyone....especially not curmudgeonly old farts like yourself

Not gonna happen. My complaint has nothing to do with JU or any of the people here. Just so you know. Oh, and subpoena is a funny looking word huh?

If you;re going to impersonate the great DSH, at least get the sentence structure and phrsaing right, will you?

I won't, don't worry.

Yeah, what's up with that?

If the reprieve is due to fear of getting caught, that stuff leaves an electronic trail so whoever is likely to get caught anyways.

Exactly. I heard that people think that the police don't/can't do anything about it...well, they can, and they do.

dharma: just looking in to let you know your post in the internet section is attracting trollish types from WC. I would suggest moving it to a section that isn't mirrored on their messageboard. They don't realize they are pooing on your blog, they think they are doing the "crap on the visitor" garbage that goes on at the WC messageboard.

Please delete this when you get it. Sorry for the offtopic. I figure if people get nasty one of the WC moderators will lock the discussion. No point in it, since it is your blog.

My day? Well...I woke up at quarter to six this morning so I could drive across town to go to yet another Saturday inservice that I will probably never get paid for. This one was okay though...and some other ladies from my school showed up and it was nice to bond with them I guess. So now...I'm tired, I have to go pick up my car, go to the Verizon store, go to the teacher store, and since I got my tax return, I might just freakin buy something for myself. So...hmpf. lol.

I'm glad that your day was better, too, K.

Moooooooo

Today is a great day. Blue sky, sun shining, not too hot, not too windy... Very pleasant indeed. When I finish here, I'm going out to enjoy it more.
