Daily Journal
Oct 7-13, 2013

Monday October 7, 2013 5:48am: Got up at 3:57. I'm done cleaning, just ate a PBJ. Going to write a legal letter and then work out if they don't call yard. Which they may not, since Sgt. Profit's funeral is today and a lot of staff may be going there. That is sad, that was a good man. He treated prisoners like human beings. Here one minute, gone the next, never know when your time will come. Unless it's like Bill who has 8 days to live. I wonder what's going through his mind. I know there's a lot of families stressed out right now 'cause their loved one's name is on that death list that the Florida Supreme Court has given the Governor. 134 names of individuals he can now kill.
10:49am: Just finished working out. I had a good one. Just ate a banana and peanut butter. Need to wash clothes, bath and do some art work.
4:31pm: Just been working on a drawing. Fixing to eat dinner and then shut down and call it a day.

Tuesday Oct 8, 2013 7:14am: Didn't wake up until 5am. Late showers had me up until 9:30. Got everything cleaned up, ready for rec if they show up. Need to write a letter and then work out.
10:54am: Just finished eating a stew that I made for my neighbor and I. Was really good. Didn't work out. I'm going to go outside and work out. May even play some basketball. That's if they take us out.
5:40pm: Went to rec, played basketball. Knees are seriously hurting now. We went out with 5 bottom and I played against Tree who's 6 foot 6, 340 pounds, 2 inches taller and 100 pounds heavier than me. I'm paying for this. Fixing to lay down and call it a day. Already washed clothes etc.

Wednesday Oct 9, 2013 6:08am: Rough night. I was dreaming that I was in a wheelchair. My knees woke me up several times. I'm an idiot for getting on that court. But basketball is one of the few enjoyments that I have. I need to write a letter and then decide what to do next.
10:10am: Just finished working out. Was not a good one, at least I got something in. Wrote 2 letters this morning, both to Christians who run ministries. Need to do some more writing and try to finish this drawing. Need some art supplies.
2:30pm: Just finished up a 2nd workout. Wasn't too bad. Read an article on Marshall Gore, how he ordered a pizza for his last meal, but didn't eat it. The witness said something about how he had 23 years in this cell to work out etc. He never worked out, that wasn't accurate. The guy was scared of everyone, he wouldn't even go to rec. Well, I'm going to go back to work on this piece of art.
5:48pm: Calling it a day, putting the art up, getting ready for the shower and then bed.

Thursday October 10, 2013 6:18am: Got up at 4am. Watched a movie, Walking Tall part 2 which I had not seen since I was a little kid. Got a letter last night from Bill, thanking me for the money, sending his love and saying goodbye. Sad letter. Got to do something to stop these killings. I'm fixing to do some walking and think.
11:58am: They called rec, so I'm getting ready. I will not play basketball today.
5:40pm: Went out, hit the dip bar, did pull ups, push ups and got some fresh air and sunshine. Just washed clothes, bathed and fixing to call it a day.

Friday Oct 11, 2013, 6:42am: Didn't get up until 5:08am. Had a bowl of cereal for breakfast. Need to write a couple of letters, work out, hope they come pull me for recreation. Right now I'm going to listen to music and walk for 30 minutes or so.
10:13am: Just finished working out and it was a good workout. Wrote an introduction for some art I have up at MB6 and started a letter. I'm hoping they come get me for rec this afternoon. Right now I'm going to finish this letter.
12:21pm: Just washed up, waiting on rec. Go out, do some pull ups and may play some basketball. See what else happens.
2:56pm: They had a recount, which messed everything up, so no recreation. I've just been laid back listening to music. I am tired, it's going to be a late night 'cause showers will be around 9pm. Well, I'm going back to my music.

Saturday Oct 12, 2013 10:03am: Just finished bathing, worked out, washed clothes. Got up at 2:48, tried to go back to sleep, couldn't. Fixing to make some burritos for lunch for my neighbor and I, then watch some football.
4:41pm: Just finished eating. Fixing to write a letter and watch the game as I write. Bill has two full days and a wake up to live, or just over 75 hours left to live.

Sunday Oct 13, 2013 8:29am: Just finished bathing. Worked out and waiting on my visit.
3:04pm: Just got back, having a cup of coffee. Heard there may be 50+ warrants signed here shortly. Hope that's not the case.
6:05pm: Bill has 48 hours to live. 48 hours, until he meets death. I'm fixing to call it a day, lay down and go to sleep shortly.
