**Brian, thank you so much for the shirt, it made me teary and i put it on immediately. i keep meaning to call you but the three hour time difference puts a kink in the transmission: i'm back on vampire schedule
( Read more... )
::gentle Hugs::...That was a 'terrible' position to put you in, even more so, knowing your back-ground!....I pray something is being done about the security?....I stayed at a 'shelter' one time for about 3 months, the security was always very tight, one girl was 'asked' to leave, when she very 'stupidly' gave the shelters address to her gang boyfriend...I was coming back from hospital visit, the idiot jumped out at me from under the stairs, Lol, I was terrified, his two pals were across the street. Usually, I would never report on 'someone' but these guys were dangerous, and she had put us all in danger!
How are you doing, love? Are you getting 'used to' HERE?
*nods* the shelter has been an interesting experience for me. i worked at a drop in center for queer youth before this, i think i liked it better.
its a shame, but my clients put other clients at risk all the time. its a misdemeanor to disclose the confidential location of the shelter. so many times i've seen women with no place to go exited. its a hard call, but rules are there for a reason.
as far as "doing" i'm looking forward to my shift being over in 2.5 hours...or at least for the sun to come up and shed some light on the situation. how are you this fair day?
On the up-beat today...not much sleeping, temporary reduction on meds...but I am feeling much better, thank you.
some 'suggestion'...courtesy one, replay (queer) with 'gay', more politically correct and we have many survivors here, who are really nice people, they might take offence....
Hope the 'sun' is rising soon, haven't had a chance to see were you are living!..will check today...lotsa love....diane
mm... the "queer" thing, I think, is a cross-cultural/ cross-generational misunderstanding (I'm queer). Its part of the movement to reclaim/appropriate the negative labels given to us to turn them on their heads. most of the people i know find it empowering, but you are correct; gay is much more politically correct.
I'm in sunny california, Oakland to be more precise.
I totally admire what you do, but I agree that they should not have left you alone. They should not leave anyone alone, never mind someone with your background......
As for that director on campus - OH MY GOD!. Is he trying to get all women to conform to his old fashioned beliefs of a woman's place by masquerading it as a safety concern? Since when has having a drink = rape? Old ladies get raped, sober as judges, people walking the dog in the park first thing in the morning, god, even people just sitting at home minding their own business - the bloody cheek.
Take care hun, always here for you if you need a chat.
The night shift is a traditionally one-staff awake-shift sort of job, but when the cameras are down... ugh.
As for mr. Michael Lopez... that's exactly what he's trying to do and that's exactly what we're trying to get him fired for. not to mention he's a bigot. I could go on for days, so I'll refrain.
have a lovely day and take care of yourself :) and ditto- i'm on aim as indigorainne
