Back...sort of
Jan. 1st, 2004 10:21 pmI'm back. Sort of. Both online and in NYC.
For better or worse.
Trip was wonderful, despite the chest cold I caught on the plane ride to Hilton Head. Just about over it now. I hope to do a couple of live journal musings on the trip, not on the cold. The trip to and from Hilton Head was stress free, as was most of the visit, outside of the chest cold.
While I'm happy to be back - and home. Part of me misses the safe comfort of my parent's home. Some crazy person has it in their head that I've been sneaking around with her hubby these past two weeks or days. She keeps leaving me threatening messages about it. In the last one she threatened to kill me. And she seems to have a limited vocabulary filled with four letter words.
Now, this is blatanly absurd for several reasons:
1. I haven't a clue who this person is. None whatsoever. 2. Outside of my friend cjl, I haven't interacted in person, on an one-to-one basis with a guy, married or single in a "very" long time. So I know I've never met the nutty female caller's husband. 3. I don't date married men. That's just dumb. 4. I was in Hilton Head Island, SC until 12 noon today. So the woman is either completely insane or there's some slut with my name (or using my name wandering about). Ugh.
I checked to see what the number was by doing *69 and discovered: 999-999-9999. I sent an email to Sprint about it. And plan to call them tomorrow, to ask what to do. IF I get additional calls, my father told me to call him, and he'd call the police. (Dad just finished a citizen's police course to help with his mystery writing.)
Sorry for rambling on, feeling just a tad discombulated by all of this. Torn between fury and anxiety. Fury at the stupid couple who deserves to spend the night in a police holding cell, together. Fear that some unbalanced person has decided to target me for reasons I can't possibly understand.
Took an extended break from the internet. The first since 2001. I honestly don't think I've been off the net more than 24 hours since 2001. So I decided to go two weeks. Get my head clear, focus on other things. Such as learning how to play Dominoes, visiting the Georgia Islands, seeing Return of The King, reading, and walking beaches and forests. I think it worked. Feeling more positive about the job search thing. Also really happy to be back, so I can reconnect with some of my NY-based online and offline friends. I missed them.My friends were the best things about 2003.
Happy New Year Everyone!
