It's been so long since I've written in this thing. A lot has been going on lately though and I just want to write.

Erin moved in with Hillary and I about a week ago. It's going well, but I don't know if Hillary and Erin are going to make it without killing each other. I love them both but gah, the bicker a lot.

I CAN NOT come back to Judson. Anyone who can let the proper people know that because I have no idea how to get in touch with anyone who needs to know that. I got an off from Bishop State Community College and my parents wouldn't let me turn it down, but I can't blame them. EVERYTHING, including gas, is paid for and I also get $5,000 in my pocket for going. I'm sorry and I'll miss everyone, but seriously, what would you do?

My lifelong friend, Scotty Weaver was murdered last week. His roommates and their friend murdered him because he was gay. Initially everyone was saying that they murdered him to get his money, but from the get go I knew there was no way in hell that was the truth. Scotty and I had grown apart over the years but when we were younger we were really good friends. His mom used to babysit me and Scotty was "my first boyfriend," although we were only like 4 at the time. He came into Pizza Hut a few weeks ago and I was playing around and told him that he was too much of a flamer for Bay Minette and then something like this happened. The authorities aren't exactly sure what weapon they used to kill him, but they said, even for a murder it was very gruesome. Then they burned his body... I swear to God I don't understand. I've sat down and tried to understand how you could possibly hate someone enough to kill them, just because of they way they live there life. I just don't get it.

The three that killed them..well, I knew them, and I hate to say that I do. Robert Porter used to ride my bus and he stalked my sister for a while. He was arrested 3 or 4 times for harassment to a few people. He was just released from juvenile or jail, I'm not sure which and I hope now he will go down for good. Chris Gaines used to walk up and down my road drunk all the time. He used to yell at my dogs and kick at Prissy all the time. Nicole, it seems like I remember her from school, but I'm not sure. I can't believe they would do that to someone like Scotty. It totally baffles me. I don't agree with the death sentence (no one argue about it, it's my opinion), but now that it touches damn near home, I can see why someone would be for it. As much as I don't believe in it, in a way, I want them to die for what they did to me.

This murder touches home for me in more ways that one. I honestly believed that my sisters and I were SAFE in Bay Minette. Something as stupid as this has honestly left me worrying....

Rest in peace, Scotty....
