coyotegothYesterday:
5:30 AM: Get home from work.
7 AM: Fall asleep.
10 AM: Am awakened by phone call; as I'm about to fall back asleep, landlord bangs on my door (I'd asked him to remail my rent receipt- which I've been specifically told I need to enclose one with each month's rent, and I've been tearing the place apart trying to find this month's). Fraught discussion, not facilitated by my exhausted and stressed condition, ensues.
2:30 PM: Wake up; log onto my apartment mate's computer. Discover that Steve Perry, the author and co-creator of Thundercats, has disappeared under extremely suspicious circumstances; police are calling it a homicide investigation. Perry was having difficult times recently- intermittently homeless and trying to support a young son, he was then diagnosed with cancer; after checking the situation out, I began PayPaling him money occasionally. He, in turn, began sending me emails with updates about his situation; while most of the emails were fairly innocuous, a couple of them go into considerable detail about his confrontational interactions with someone close to him. Accordingly, I've contacted the police in his town, and offered to forward said emails to them.
2:30 AM: Log on, and discover that Martin Gardner, a favorite author of mine since childhood, has passed away. (Not suspicious at all- he was 95- but sad, nonetheless.)
Today:
Plan to spend most of day lounging in bed, watching DVDs of the TV show Taxi. Possibly go into work later to double, triple recheck something I checked seven times on Friday, because at this point, my brain is insisting that the sky is falling.
