Today was Interesting. I was at the Store today, by myself, when this 'lady' came in and asked if she could use our phone to call 911. I asked her why she wanted to call 911 and she explained she'd been kicked out of a car by a guy who drove off with her purse and cell phone still in the car.
Now, before I go further, I should explain that this 'lady' was definitely a dude. And either (a) a prostitute or (b) a tweaker.
Normally, I wouldn't let some rando use the Store phone, but I let her use it and she did call the police. After the call, she handed the phone back to me and it was just covered in whatever cheapass makeup she was using. Then she started to tell me all about the experience, informing me that the guy had kicked her out after she 'bought drugs for him three times without complaining once' and only having an issue when he picked up some other trans-person to have sex with. At that point, she said she told him to take her home and that's when he kicked her out. And during all of this, this 'lady' is dropping F-bombs left, right and center.
I asked her to moderate her language, as I had kids in the store, and she gave me some b.s. about her freedom of speech at which point I informed her that she could practice that freedom of speech by the road.
Well, amazingly, a cop showed up after about ten minutes. I watched from the window and it was obvious the cop, a woman, was trying her damnedest not to laugh at this 'lady's' complaint. Then, the 'lady' hit the road and the cop left and I gave everyone who was still in the store and had witnessed all this nonsense a discount on their purchases and an explanation that this sort of thing did not happen at the Store.
I haven't told Jorg about it and I don't think I'm going to because what would be the point?
Anyway, after that, I got a text from Paul who cancelled Game Night. Which was kind of a relief, but I'm wondering if he's doing okay as I haven't heard a peep out of him all this week. I hope he hasn't spiraled down into the Bad Place.
So I came home and watched some random crap on the computer and dinked around, writing, and now I'm updating this journal.
I hope y'all's Sunday was less interesting than mine!
