May 8, 2019 - Update

Yesterday, I went to the west SFV animal shelter.
I just had a *feeling*. Since he never returned... his GF^H^HBFF has been eating outside, so I know he's still there.

***Apparently he was picked up a couple days after the cat-fight, and got cleaned up, neutered and put up for adoption. Since he was "aggressive", "hissing and spitting" and in general hostile; he didn't stand much of a chance. Sounds like my guy.

It's him. Chipped/neutered and vaccinated c/o SPCA and the shelter.
I got him back. (must be something in my eye)....

I (he) got lucky. His girlfriend is hanging around outdoors; but she's having NO part of being inside.
maybe...


And later...

I got her back also.

I took the gang to the vet.

Surprise.... She's a HE! 

So I have a gender neutral cat?  (turns out that dominance plays more of a role than sex in this situation)...

Stress is seeing stupid *everywhere* (West SFV)


So, two days ago (plus) my guest let my tomcat out of the condo. No surprise, he's stealthy and she's not situationally aware. However, I can't seem to let go of the idea that "it's her fault"... even though it really isn't.
I tried to coax him back later... about 2-3 am when he was having a discussion with another Tom about territory right in front of my door. I grabbed him, and he took exception (no surprise, I didn't have a good purchase).

His GF climbed the wall in the atrium later that night, and I'm now down two cats.

But, they're doing construction work during the day, and I haven't seen him or her since.

Fuck.

Just a little more negativity... and accusations Originally POSTED 9/24/08

I'm on the phone with my extremely-significant friend of the female variety, when someone "Helen XXXX" rings thru (name obfuscated at least until I figure out what this is about). It's about 11 at night.

A voice I don't know (female) says "You still rape women, asshole?"... and hangs up.

What the ???

I pause conversation with gf, and try to figure out who's gotten lost. Or what.
Technology is a wonderful thing... but I don't know this person, or at least... don't remember ever meeting them.

So, I bite. *69 Call back and ask... "what is this about"... to voicemail.
She... calls back.

"You know... you raped someone, you belong in jail. You piece of sh*t, you are human garbage, and you are a creep. And if I have ever anything to say about it, you ... you will be in jail. You belong in jail, and you are a creep. "

(she hangs up).

I have no idea who this is. I don't recognize the voice, and unless the first name is "similar" to someone I knew... (hope not!), I don't have a clue. And, as far as I can figure... I've never raped anyone in my life. Not really high on my list of things to do.

* * *

A number of years back, I got forwarded hate mail from places I used to work at, where the letter writer (anonymous) put forth similar claims. Human Resources, in a fit of "careful attention to detail" made sure that I got the copies. I never worked there again...

I wonder if it's the same person...

Wonderful.

Except, SHE... is mad. And, that's not a good thing. And now... I can't sleep.


Google -- whups!?

So, about a year ago...  a whole bunch of my earlier posts disappeared.  Well, actually they became "unpublished", "Draft"...  Clue: All of them are the oldest posts...

Some bug in the google/blogger database, but it screwed me up because:
1. I cannot republish without the date changing, which messes up the continuity of the posting journal. (after all, you want to read my thoughts in order, right?)
2. The account tied to the unpublished posts is the account administrator, and apparently I had forgotten that; and it was all kinds of fun to recover that ownership.  (I didn't remember that I setup the account that way).   Now that I think I have...
3. I still can't find a way to bulk fix the posts; and as stated(1) can't keep the correct date.
Nope -- just tested it and it pushed to the current date.

Grrr.
