It's 16 degrees here, with windgusts up to 40 mph. Brr.

I saw that on the news yesterday. I really hope that they go easy on the father/grandfather. He made the wrong choice, but after being played that 911 tape by reporters, it is almost understandable.

so tired omg. The night before a six-hour drive is just the best time to have insomnia.

I'm getting a small holiday bonus in my next paycheck, but the sad part is that right now I'm too tired to care.

I mean, I know why. I know. I know. I know. But some things push my buttons, and I mostly want to buy that father/grandfather a beer and say, "Good show, Papa," even though I know he made the wrong choice.

Yeah. Well, in Northern California we had the woman who shot the guy in court who molested her kid.

But that storyline always makes me think about the St. Elsewhere episode where a guy goes into the hospital to kill the man who raped and killed his wife. And it feels righteous then. But that same character shows up the next year during a prison riot (one of the doctors was volunteering in the prison) and he was somebody's prison bitch. And he stood idly by while David Morse got raped. And he said, "I must have loved her very much."

In other exciting news, EM got another freaky note in her mailbox. This one warning her to "be careful, now." The police have it and are checking for fingerprints. She's completely losing her shit. She's only 5'1" and she's lost 27 pounds over the last three months. She's barely above 100 lbs now.

Yes. He shouldn't have done it, and yet I totally get why he did. Hopefully, he'll get 30 days suspended or whatever. I know why they have to charge him, because the courts cannot have that, ever, but still...

GAH.

Remind me why I'm against vigilante justice, please. I know I am, but I just blacked out, when I tried to remember on my own.

I'll be sure to tell you as soon as I can remember why I am.

At the indictment hearing, they were playing (or had played) the 911 recording, and the woman's father just freaked and attacked the man, right in open court. He was, of course, arrested, and so much of me kept thinking, "Why?"

This reaction is understandable and I hope they go easy on the father.

Fuck. Poor EM.

This has to be the assex, right? My word, poor EM. The universe needs to totally lay off her, right now.

Yeah. Well, in Northern California we had the woman who shot the guy in court who molested her kid.

Yeah. I felt the same way about her story.

But that storyline always makes me think about the St. Elsewhere episode where a guy goes into the hospital to kill the man who raped and killed his wife. And it feels righteous then. But that same character shows up the next year during a prison riot (one of the doctors was volunteering in the prison) and he was somebody's prison bitch.

I'm sorry, I am not following who is who, here. Who stood by? Who is David Morse, in this?

I still get the point, and I know (in my head) why it's wrong. Where I struggle with it, is in my blood.

Poor, Em. I hope the police are able to do something that can give Em some peace of mind.
