Friday January 11, 2013 5:13am: Just sitting here waiting on breakfast. I've been up since 3:50, made the bunk, I still have to clean the floor, bars and all that good stuff. Last night I got in some of my stationery. Hopefully next week I'll get some of my new color stationery.
7:41am: Wrote a blog, posted my finances, and then I just finished scrubbing the walls, floor, bars, everything. Now I need to write my mom and see what else today may hold.
10:46am: The warden and assistant warden came through about 15 minutes ago. I was walking back and forth listening to music. I didn't even realize that's who it was until she was all the way down the hall. I originally thought they were classification. I missed a chance to talk to her. Oh well - maybe next time. I got a letter started to my mom. I stopped to eat. Since then I've just been pacing here in my cage.
1:26pm: I finished a letter to my mom. I then wrote a penpal organization, which we are allowed to do. These penpal rules are idiotic, but anyways, I figured I'd write there and see if I can find someone to write. Just not getting enough mail, so I figured I'd write these orgs and see what I can come up with there. I need to work on a piece of stationery that I started. I also have a drawing going that I need to finish, but I doubt I'll do any of that today. Guess for now I'm going to get up and pace.
4:27pm: Just finished eating. Just the bread and sausage. The sweet potatoes and greens were nasty. Should be getting my shower in about 2 hours. After that, I'll lay down and listen to some music until I go to sleep, and I will have succeeded in wasting another day here on the row. I seen my psychologist a few minutes ago, I told him to put me down to see the doctor. I got to get the Prozac before this gets any worse.
Saturday January 12, 2013 6:36am: I got up at 3:30 after one of the officers came through the back door and slammed it with enough force to shake my bunk. I've made the bunk, cleaned the cell and wrote a couple of cards as I've been listening to my music. I have a couple of letters to write. I'm considering getting up and working out. I haven't done anything this week. That suicide threw me right back into my slump. I was messing around with a card last night while waiting for the shower. I messed up, so I turned it into Batman. I may finish that up this morning, send it to John. I need to finish a letter to Crystal and write Dina. I also need to get to work and finish this piece of stationery. Later today I'll watch some football, until I fall asleep. I never watched football on the street or any sports or any TV. And I'm just not a big TV fan in here. I enjoy my music much more than TV. Right now I'm going through my Metallica playlist.
9:48am: I got off my ass and worked out. Wasn't the best, but it was something. They came by with cleaning supplies, so I cleaned the cell again. Later I'll wash clothes and bath. Right now, I'm going to finish this card up, and then do some writing.
5:09pm: Just sitting here watching football. At half time I'm going to bath. I finished up a card and started on another drawing. I may finish that tomorrow or Monday. I've got some letters to finish in the morning and in the afternoon I'm going to watch football, which I'm going back to right now.
Sunday January 13, 2013 6:26am: Sitting here listening to my music. Fixing to start a letter. Got up at 4:39. I feel tired and sluggish. I still need to wash the floor and exercise. I want to get it all finished before 12pm, so I can lay back and watch football. Last night I was thinking about Mr. Willis, it was 23 years ago that David shot him. It was on a Friday night and it was done with a legal gun that David stole from a home owner who he was working for. Most murders are committed through legally sold guns that are stolen, or sold or traded for drugs etc by people with clean records, so there's no way to keep the guns out of the hands of criminals or the mentally ill. It just won't happen, no matter what laws they implement.
9:31am: Just finished exercising. Now I've got to do a bit of writing. I also need to look at an art book that someone sent me to check out, so I need to get to it.
2:05pm: Just watching some football, listening to my music and doing some writing. I'm thinking about doing a little cardio work-out. I'm sore from yesterday. Really just trying to pass some time. That's all I'm ever doing. Just passing time to get through another day in this hellhole of a life and existence that I'm caught up in. Hell of a fate. But it is what it is.
4:19pm: Just finished eating. That was a great football game between Atlanta and Seattle. I'm fixing to wash some clothes, bath, and then I'll lay back, watch this other game and then go to sleep, call it a day. Maybe tomorrow will bring something better. And to all the haters, go find something positive to do. Live today - no, this minute as if it was your last. 'Cause you never know if it may be and would you want your last minute, your last thoughts, being on me, someone you hate, or would you rather it be on someone you live, doing something positive, doing something you enjoy. And here's a little something to leave you with.
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes, this ways when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes. Ha ha. I hope I could leave my friends and the haters with a smile. :)

That´s JUST what I advised you to do with Warden Reddish, hè?
And that ´s a good suggestion too: Not to spend your possibly last minute on someone you hate but on people you love.
So, maybe better spend it on your family and friends and not on wardens or other people you hate?
Or do you just want others to do that because it´s comfortable for you - they should only react positive on you or stay away, and you may do whatever you wish and you simply excuse it with "well, I´m a vengeful idiot and the unforgiven"?
Rosa Luxemburg once said she only accepted advice which the advisor would practice him-/herself..... ;)
I´m sure you can do better if only you want and decide to, or at least try to improve.
Do it.
You´ll find out that trying to understand your enemies and to forgive does, above all, ease YOUR OWN mind.
Of course, it´s also the presupposition for peace and reconciliation, but first of all, YOU will feel better not always going mad at everyone.
In my opinion, everybody has been born with both possibilities: to choose the good or to choose the evil. And you can change your mind on that during your life.
Of course, it´s easier to continue on the bad way.
But believe me: It´s worth trying to improve.
Why? probably years and years of me me me instead of a more man/warrior approach.
He hung Josie Clark out to dry in his feeble scam. How horribly embarrassing for this "aged" woman and her children/grandchildren.
My point is that Clark centers on his CURRENT charge/conviction for which he is on death row. He had another death sentence (overturned to LWOP) right behind it.
I think there are more but let's just go with what he has been convicted of.
Reading about his "dailies" really doesn't do much for me. I yawn and say....so what.
you murdered, Clark, and for that you will spend your life in prison.
Nobody on the outside who looks at your "sheets" could come to any other conclusion.
You are a murderer.
at the risk of being banned here...i'll say you have A LOT of gall to defame and harass the staff. You're on death row because you have committed murder (2x convictions).
please sit down now and be quiet.
You victims had no chance
Has been part of the old testament. And as we call ourselves Christians, the important instructions come from Jesus and the new testament.
(By the way, that eye for an eye wasn´t an order for revenge but for limitation of revenge...)
