Oreo

Lots of new things. My neighbor Mr. Marion (who happens to be a psychotic vet who fought in Nam) tried to shoot one of my other neighbors in the ONE hour I was gone about two weeks ago. If I had not taken half an hour to decide whether to cook or eat out, and had not left at the precise time that I did, it could have been ME who got shot. O.O He went to jail, but I didn't know how long they'd keep him since he didn't kill the guy. So I put up an ad to find someone to replace me on my lease so I could move somewhere safer. Come to find out, his bail was $5000, shortly went up to $25,000; and then they wouldn't even let his parents bail him out. I dunno WHAT he did...but I moved. I now live by the mall, in the apartments I moved into the very first time I ever moved out. I like it a lot here. There is security all night, it's well lit, and the apartments are nice inside. So I'm happy.

I finally got inspired and wrote a good song (It's called Insomnia. Nik composed the music and I wrote the lyrics and vocal melody)...and then the band I was in no longer felt that I had what it takes to front them. It's mostly the drummer who just doesn't like my voice and convinced a couple of the other guys that there's no way I could be aggressive enough on stage. Pfft...he knows nothing about me. So I have now become inspired to FINALLY put music to my writing and create some original songs. (So far I've got choruses for Crypt Tonight, Easy Way, and another one which I have not yet named...) I've decided to perform acoustic shows solo for a while and see where that goes. One of the guys from the band is also interested in playing guitar with me while I sing. So we'll see.

I have acquired a small kitten named Oreo. A friend of a friend of a friend found her when she was like 2-3 weeks old...almost died 'cause she shouldn't have been away from her mother yet. They fed her with a bottle and she ended up living. Though the guy that actually owned her blew pot smoke at her a lot and made her eat mushrooms...at less than 4 weeks old. That right there is abuse. SO...I have taken her...and she is now 6 weeks. She's actually got some fat instead of just bones and patches of fur. The missing patches of fur have grown in and she's more alert. I thought she might die again anyway after he practically poisoned her. So now I have a kitten..and she bites and scratches EVERYthing. She's cute though. Ah...some of the things that I get myself into.
