Daily Journal

March 18-21, 2013

Monday March 18, 2013 5:28am Just finished eating breakfast, 2 tiny pancakes and maybe 8 ounces of oatmeal. Didn't get a good night's sleep. Bunk's made, I still got to clean my floor. I didn't get out of bed until 4:30, so I'm fixing to clean the floor, sink and toilet and then decide what to do next.

6:12am Just finished cleaning everything. Just listening to music now, fixing to go to work on a card, pass some time and see what today holds, probably more mundane death row existence.

10:18am I've been working on a card most of the morning. Then I stopped to write a blog titled, "Today's Church." I was looking yesterday at the TV, all these preachers asking for money, and so that inspired me to write that. All of them are a bunch of con artists who are manipulating people for financial gain. They're making good money doing this. To hell with loving your neighbour as yourself, I could preach this Bible. And if I believed in it, I would. Oh well, back to this card.

11:44am Just doing some art work, this card is turning out nicely. I really need to get to exercising. I keep thinking about it, but that's not getting anything done.

2:28pm I'm really tired, can't wait to get my shower and go to sleep. Showers are back to front so I'll go first, around 6:30 when I come back I'm going to sleep. I get me a real piece of chicken tonight, I'm looking forward to it. It'll cost, but it's worth it. It;s a shame they don't serve us chicken. They say chicken bones are a threat so security. That's bs, we have glass TVs, steel lockers, bunks and shelves, which is the best material to make a shank out of, if you want one. They do a lot of stupid crap around here and call it security. Well I think I'm going to lay down, I am really tired!

4:10pm They served dinner at 3:40. I put a soup with rice and tomatoes. I didn't get the piece of chicken, still hoping he may come through. They haven't picked up trays yet, they're picking them up right now, and the psychologist Mr. Byrd just came by. I also just got my chicken - 2 pieces which I'm going to put in this soup. I'll eat in about another 30 minutes.

4:58pm Just finished eating. It was so good. I'm fixing to lay back, watch the news and wait on the shower.

6:59pm Just got back from the shower. Fixing to lay down and call it a day. Hopefully get some mail tonight.

Tuesday March 19, 5:43am Finished eating, sausage, toast grits and potatoes. Got one letter last night, so I'll write that letter. I'm going to send out a couple of cards, do some art work, and see how the day unfolds. Bunk's made, cell's cleaned, I need to wash some cloths. I won't be going out to see the doctor today, we have that unethical criminal low-life sgt. working down here who falsified the DR on 5/16/12 to put me in a strip cell. I don't go to call-outs when he's on. Wish they would move him. Time to get to it. Larry has just over 3 weeks to live.

7:02am Good news, that unethical criminal sgt. isn't down here today, so glad of that. Now I'll go out and see Mr. Byrd and the doctor. I then won't have to see the doctor for 3 more months, so June. I'm glad that guy in South Florida wasn't able to kill any students, what the hell is wrong with people out there?!! This is a mad insane ass world!!

9:20am I left out of here at 7:30, saw the doctor, then Mr. Byrd, then on the way back I stopped on the quarter deck and talked to the captain. He seems like a decent guy, said he was going to look into taking me off heightened security. Anyways I just got back to my cell, I'm fixing to have a cup of coffee, wash some cloths and go from there.

10:26am Just finished washing clothes and cleaning the floor and shaving. I'm having a cup of coffee and fixing to walk, and think about exercising which Nurse Harris and Mr Byrd both suggested I should do. I just need to do it. Time to walk.

10:48am Lunch just came. I put it in a bowl. I'm actually exercising, so back to it.

11:34 I got a nice sweat in, instead of walking, I ran in place for 30 minutes, then did crunches and sit-ups. I really need this, I do feel sick to my stomach right now. I'll eat later on. I may do something else later, push-ups or maybe even set-up my weight pile which is my legal work. I also heard today that cab is not going good. The cancer is in his liver and kidneys. I hate that, Cab is a really good dude, damn I feel sick.

12:53pm Just finished eating. I had the potatoes from breakfast and the Spanish rice from lunch. I washed all that off and poured a canteen of chili over it. It was pretty good. I'm not sure what I'm going to do now, I may do some work on this card. In fact, that's what I'm fixing to do.

3:10pm I wrote a card out, other than that I've just been doing some art work. I'm fixing to jog in place and do a few more push-ups.

3:50pm Just got stuff that I needed. I'm sweating. Fixing to do some more push-ups before dinner gets here. It is in the building, saw it come over awhile ago.

4:28pm I had a nice little exercise session. My food is currently heating. After I eat I'm going to wash clothes, bath, jump in bed and call it a day. And it had been a productive day. Now I've just got to get up in the morning and get myself focused.

Wednesday March 20, 4:59am Got up at 3:30, went through my daily ritual making the bunk, cleaning the cell, waiting on breakfast now. We have oatmeal and coffee cake. I'm going to exercise this morning. Didn't get any mail last night. I'll probably finish a card today or work on a piece of stationary.

5:45am I ate the coffee cake, put the oatmeal up for 7:30 or 8. Breakfast is late, a guy down the hall in cell 6123 is leaving for outside court this morning. Cell 6124 Cab's cell is open as well. I was doing crunches which is what I'm going to get back to soon as they pick up the trays, which they're doing right now.

7:04am Just been walking. I did crunches. Later I'm going to job, do biceps, triceps and legs. The guys will probably go to yard this morning. Hopefully I'll be off this stupid ass heightened security and can go next week. I heard when Warden Reddish was pulled over for drinking and driving that he was pulled over by one of the brother-in-laws of an officer here. I'm asking questions trying to find out more, 'cause there's nothing more that I want than to nail that punk ass low-life unethical criminal ass Warden Barry V. Reddish. Have his criminal correctional officers assault me, and hurt my mom. Nope - can't let it go, not until he's out of the DOC. Larry has three weeks to live.

9:15am Just changed sheets, made the bed, set up my weight pile and I'm fixing to work out.

10:13am Just finished a nice little workout. Now I broke the bibles out looking up some stuff. I'm going to send out a few cards tonight. I'm going to break out the art work here in a minute, try to finish this card up.

12:05pm Just finished eating. I had to wash the meat off. Sloppy joe, but it was nasty. Them guys in the kitchen can't cook. I'm going to exercise again about 2pm. I'm just sitting here finishing up this card, it came out nice. Fixing to get back to it.

2:27pm Just finished another little exercise session. Just hit biceps and triceps. I finished the card. Need to work on the stationary .

3:20pm Cab just came back, I'm glad to see that. I'm just sitting here working on some stationary. This place is noisy right now.

4:31pm Making a stew with the food that I got off the tray with some canteen. Fixing to wash clothes then lay back and watch the news, and wait on the showers, watch Survivor and go to sleep. Now I'm fixing to eat.

Thursday March 21, 5:20am Just waiting on breakfast, should be here any minute now. I'm so sore from exercising. I've been up since 4am. Last night I cut my hair about 6pm, came out nice. Got two letters in, so I'll write them this morning. At 12pm I'm going to watch basketball.

7:25am Just finished up a 2nd letter. They called recreation. I've got to exercise here shortly, but I also need to write a couple of religious orgs. Need to get to it.

9:20am Just sitting here doing some art work. The mp3 guy just picked up my player. I should have 5 songs coming. Well, I'm going back to this piece of art.

9:44am Just got my mp3 plater back. This guys does what he's supposed to do and brings it right back. I got 4 new songs, one's on backorder, I'll get it next week.

11:33am Been doing art, still haven't worked out, all I'm going to do is abs, legs and cardio. I can do that while watching the games and listening to my music. They brought lunch, I put it in a bowl and will eat it later. Back to the art.

12:59am Just finished eating, fixing to start exercising.

1:52pm Just finished, I hit legs, abs and did some cardio. I'll wash cloths around 5pm then bathe. The basketball game sucks, total blow out and the refs are even trying to help. I'm listening to my new songs. Think I'm going to write a letter and then decide what to do next.

3:24pm Wrote a letter to a Christian org, sitting here watching the games and word is, attorneys were denied coming in here tomorrow, so that being said, guys are expecting a major shake-down, and it may be back here that it's happening. I just went through my cell to make sure that I don't have anything that I'm not supposed to have. My cell is clean, but that doesn't stop one of them from setting you up. Just waiting on dinner now, we have hot dogs. The yard officers are also doing photo up-dates right now. I heard they had to do 28 guys.

4:51pm Dinner was late, I just finished eating. Soon as they pick up trays I'm going to wash clothes, bathe and get in bed and call it a day. I've had a productive day. I'm glad the prozac is working and not having to deal with them suicidal thoughts. That - damn it was a rough stretch! Just glad to be back on the prozac. Well here's tray pick-up, and I'm fixing to wrap it up and call it a day.
