Why you should not give your mother your cell phone number And home phone:
Ever since the announcement of the quarantine mom has been calling me nonstop asking if not only am I okay but everyone else. Is she calling you guys? She wanted to know if Cat likes Pumpkin because she will bake her Pumpkin cupcakes. I told her to call Patrick and ask. Did she ask you? Maybe I shouldn’t have told her Cat was in quarantine. Sometimes it’s a good thing Ma doesn’t know how to use the journals but on the other hand it might make life easier no what am I thinking it would make life even worse. I think she thinks I have a crystal ball. Or have a wire tap and cameras in all your homes.
I made the mistake of not charging my cell phone and unplugging the home phone. The next day as soon as my cell phone was charged my voicemail was full with nothing but messages from Ma. Now the announcement with a death. Is she calling you guys? Or am I being a drama queen? Any sane man would stick to the phone but I’m coming over tonight because she’s making pot roast and I can’t say no to that. Not only pot roast but blueberry and pumpkin pie. I’m a horrible glutton. I think I might be walking into a trap though. I think she might be trying to butter me up to get me to do something for her. |

Someone out bid me on the house I wanted so I've been staying at the starlight still in denial. I think I'm going to finally check out the apartments around town or look for a cabin. I'm only worried that if I live in a cabin I'll become that old bearded man in the woods and that I'll become some Heritage myth for kids. I don't know what they'd say but kids come up with a lot of crazy stuff. I like the idea of a house on the lake. We'll see.
The Market has these pumpkin frosted sugar cookies that I sure if I keep eating I'll get diabetes because they are so addicting. I have no self control with these. I'll buy a box eat one put the box away and then slowly go back to it as if I'm trying to hide this from someone but it's just me. The next thing I know I've eaten myself stupid and because I'm too embarrassed to go back right away I wait a few days and get more. |

I’m disgusted by what is going on in London. These rioters and looters are doing all of this in protest but they aren’t protesting their government. One woman claimed that they were “taking their taxes back” and this is not what they are doing. They’re hurting the tax payers, the people, each other, and not their government. People are being beat and robbed; businesses that people own are being damaged. People are losing money from being looted.
“When a young man was asked by a reporter, if he thought rioting was the correct way to express discontent, he answered with"Yes," said the young man. "You wouldn't be talking to me now if we didn't riot, would you?"
The TV reporter from Britain's ITV had no response. So the young man pressed his advantage. "Two months ago we marched to Scotland Yard, more than 2,000 of us, all blacks, and it was peaceful and calm and you know what? Not a word in the press. Last night a bit of rioting and looting and look around you."
It’s a sad and disgusting truth. I can’t help but wonder if this is because of the day and age we live in. I wonder if technology and the media has played a hand in desensitizing people. Then I really thought about what my point of reference was, Martin Luther King Jr. His peaceful protests and blacks protesting, whites joining, but all the famous protests were met with violence. They gained national and world wide attention because of the reaction of others: authority, ignorant and hateful people using violence.
Is it really possible to make a point on a grand scale without violence? I don’t want to believe this but history says otherwise. |

Private: This is my own limitation of thought I’m sure of it but I can’t see how this isn’t going to end without the family divided and without us having to choose sides. She doesn’t want to see mom or Bryan and she doesn’t want them around. I can’t support this but I can’t keep going against Alex like this. I’m afraid if I keep standing up for Bryan she’ll push me away completely thinking that I’ve taken his side. I couldn’t ever choose one over the other that’s just impossible. I can’t imagine life without any of them. I feel out of control and helpless. I don’t know how to get through to Alex. I don’t know if I should stop. If I do stop I feel like I’d be giving up on the family. Maybe all she needs is a break from all of this. Maybe she just needs people to stop telling her what to do so she can figure it out herself.
I wish I always knew what to say and when to say it. I’m afraid I might have made things worse and I don’t know what to do to fix it. Where did I go wrong. |

I’m going to be leaving town for a while. After Christmas. Somethings have come up and I need to go. I don’t want to lie to you but I think I have to. I was offered a job in New York, higher pay. I’ll send you back some NYPD jackets. I’ve already talked to Mom and Dad so they know. [/end private Chalkers only]

No Country For Old Men is terrifying. I know this came out a very long time ago. I'm slow on seeing new films. It's got me thinking that I don't watch enough movies. The last time I saw a movie in the theaters was Fargo...96 I think. I'm starting my new year's resolution earlier. I'm going to go to the theaters at least twice a year or rent at least 4 new movies in a year.
Does anyone have any recent movie suggestions? I feel so out of touch with pop culture. |

What will you do today Bill?
- I think I'll get up at 3am to arrest someone on drugs.
What would make you want to do that?
- It's my job.
A homeless man trying to hitchhike out of town was reported by two drivers and one cyclist. There was an officer on the scene and he couldn't figure out how to talk the guy down. After about ten minutes of the homeless man yelling the other officer said "If you didn't do crack you wouldn't be in this mess." and the homeless man yelled "I ain't no crack head I'm on cocaine mudder fucka!" He pulled out a knife, the other officer drew his gun, and the homeless man fell over and passed out.
I think the other officer was too tired to deal with any cocaine bullshit. I thought it was funny. The homeless man wasn't near enough to hurt us and he wasn't going to get close enough without us doing something about it first. |

It's not everyday I string out the words "what the fuck" especially when I'm working but that's just what I said today when I was assaulted with a burrito. You read that right a burrito. It's against the law to assault a police officer but when the woman did it with a burrito I almost wanted to let her go because it made me laugh. She was drunk and causing a scene. After running a quick check on her once I got her information she had two outstanding warrants for her arrest.
I almost forgot. At 1am today I had to go out and check on a noise disturbance in the camp grounds. There were 4 teenagers 2 on mushrooms and 2 on Ecstasy, all armed with glow sticks. They were hugging trees and trying to cuddle with other people camping. They called me the shiny star man. I had to arrest them and it was really strange because they were very happy to get into the back of my car. The two on Ecstasy wanted to rub against my badge because and I quote "it feels like cool love"... |
