The attack, part two

Schrecken13

September 14, 2024

My battle to escape my attacker continued.... If you have ever heard anyone talking about seeing things in “tunnel vision” or have experienced this yourself, this is exactly what I was seeing in the moment. As I fought I reached out with both arms, desperate to grab onto a bush, a structure or an...

My biggest fear about Jay and Azure getting together was if they broke up, I didn’t want to have to choose sides. When Jay called me to let me know they broke up, he called out of concern for Azure’s well-being. He wanted to make sure she was okay, which meant for me, I…

Visits From Friends

Things at work were looking up. Again I was promoted, this time to a newly created position at our bank. I was put in charge of Internet Banking. The Board Members of the bank were very wary of the risks, so we essentially got a bare boned product, in which all transactions would end…

Worst Road Trip Ever

May 9, 2012

For New Year’s we had the crazy idea of driving nonstop to New York and be there in time for ‘Jesus’ Dan’s New Year’s Party as a big surprise to everybody. Lori needed to fly to Texas on Tuesday for work. So we would drive to New York, be there for about...

A Vegas Wedding

April 18, 2012

Michele and ‘English’ Mike were getting married. Azure was going to be the Maid of Honor and Jay was the Best Man. We didn’t have much of a plan. We knew they were staying on ‘The Strip’. Chrissy and I would go, find a cheap motel to stay at and meet up with t...

Back to Colorado

April 9, 2012

The next couple of weeks I was winding things down and clearing up loose ends preparing for my final move back to Colorado for good. I bought Denver’s Jeep. Paid in full, so all my extra money was now tied up in this new vehicle. I had talked to Chrissy, to confirm that…

April 6, 2012

A week after my brother’s wedding was my birthday. It also happened to fall on the same day that the guys were throwing an 80’s party at Fiddler’s Green. For the party I wore white jeans and a denim jacket, the pinnacle of fashion. We were all having a great ...

“I’m Not Mexican”

April 4, 2012

One evening I met up with Matt at C. J. Bond’s when Jay was bartending, I was bragging to him about how I was able to drive his old car, ‘Snout’, down Route 1 along the California coast like he always wanted to do. And then told him how we drove into Mexico. …

Back to New York

April 2, 2012

I was only going to be in Colorado for about two weeks before I had to fly back to Colorado for a couple of months because of a bunch of weddings. Basically, I had enough time to move our furniture in. Arrange the apartment how we liked, and then fly back to New York. My…

Mary Again?

March 21, 2012

A funny thing happened one day. Mark called me from wherever he was stationed in the Marines. It may have been West Virginia. What was even more peculiar was what he needed to ask me. With a sense of urgency he needed to know if I had Mary’s phone number. “Now WHY w...
