To start this off, I have to stress that it’s not a case of us being completely innocent victims. I hate that idea of people passing themselves off as completely innocent of any wrongdoing; Alpine Meadows has been pulling that with us for the past few weeks. So I’m not going to try that myself. We were in the wrong. We didn’t pay our rent and didn’t have the courage to ask for help when it could have been easily given.

And we were evicted because of it.

That being said, I feel that our treatment at the hands of Alpine Meadows, the courts, and the realtors at First Choice Mobile Home Sales was completely deplorable. We’re not criminals, we’re not trash. We’re people who just happen to be poor.

This entry is kind of rambling and VERY long (9 pages, 3873 words). I broke it up into pages to keep it straight. (Lj cuts if you’re reading it there.) I’ll include dates and times so we can stay clear about the timeline, since I do tend to jump around a little bit.

Eviction post: *hugs* Theresa, Derrian, Trelithe, Kim, Hillary, Bevey, and Ook. Thank you for all your thoughts, prayers, and hugs.

Writing Randomness: Why do you always get the best story ideas at 3am, have it all written out in your head, but by the next morning — you can’t remember a damn thing? XD I had this whole short story about some post college guy going to Las Vegas for a job interview and by this morning I’d forgotten everything. I really need a handheld “tape” recorder. lol

On Kids: I’ve decided I want to be a mom. I want to be a mom bad. Yet I really have no plans of ever getting married. Hell, I’ve slid back into an almost child-like “boys are icky” stage again. Pathetic, huh?

Diabetes: I’m feeling weird again. I’ve only gone hypoglycemic three times today, so I have a feeling I’m crusing for another. Of course, I could just be tired. Hypoglycemia does that to me.

Website Promotion: Have you ever felt just plain dirty when you haven’t done anything TO feel that way? I’ve been promoting my domain today and a couple sites I wanted to put my link on required me to put up advertising reciprocal links. Now I feel all dirty. lol

Anime: There’s some new samurai anime on Adult Swim. I haven’t had the energy to find out which one it is. Just wish they’d stop censoring the swearing. That record scratch is annoying.

Randomness: I really feel like making some kind of dessert using rum. Rums good. Very good. Too bad there’s none in the house. Then again, that’s probably good.

Website Promotion II: I summed up my promotion thoughts on Arise today in a tutorial. I’m still trying to promote the boards, but forums are a royal bitch to promote. I really don’t know how to write down what I really want to say, so I guess I’ll play the part of the bitch and just say it. During their infancy, forums NEED an established, successful website in order to be successful themselves. With RW.com long dead, it’s no wonder we’re having trouble attracting people.

Anime #2: Watching some anime on cable, not sure which… I wonder if they ever get motion sickness the way they… I dunno - bounce? - when they run. Making me dizzy just watching it.

Blah, my randomness is nowhere near as amusing as Kim’s randomness. ^_^;; Kim, you’re my hero! Y’know that? Alrighty, I’m going to bed now. Maybe I might remember that story.
