Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So I saw the trailer for "Sharknado."

I think I'm gonna have to watch that movie.

Jesse, maybe something with GPS on it? It's probably impossible to get him to take an iPhone everywhere, but the technology certainly exists.

This occurred to me the other day. If he's already wearing a med-alert bracelet, surely there's a way to attach a tracker of some sort.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

...maybe you should just drink a lot?

That sounds about right.

And my mother had looked into GPS things, but thought they were too expensive. (And he can't carry anything, it would have to be the watch thing.) Anyway, I really think now not being alone is the key thing.

Where did they locate him?

Copley Square, basically. (Which, people keep saying how far that is, but I walked to my parents' when I lived near there! Not all the time, but it's not like a regular person wouldn't choose to do it.)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Jesse, sorry for being so nosy. It looks like continuous tracking is pretty pricey, but something like [link] might give peace of mind.

No, I appreciate it. Especially since my support group doesn't meet in the summer! That thing looks like it could go on his belt, which should work.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My sister and I contemplated microchipping our mom. She didn't just want to wander around, she wanted to DRIVE. Once a delivery driver left the keys in his vehicle in front of the Home, and she happened to be there and got in and drove off. She didn't get far because she didn't know where she was, so she stopped at the end of the driveway, thank goodness. The look on his face was priceless. Bet he never did that again.

Oh snap, and maybe they sell it downstairs from me.

Thank god my father doesn't want to drive. And everyone agrees a chip would be ideal!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

OMG, I'm imagining my irate republican mother driving off in the mailman's truck with her purple handgun . . .

Yes, people, she's a republican and her gun is purple.

IDEFK.

If I had a gun, I would like a purple one!
