I am a god. I am a faceless warrior...
I am the shadow in the dark
the final gleam in a descending arc

 
I am bored, it is late and I'm writing nonsense...

Where have all the good men goneAnd where are all the gods?Where's the street-wise HerculesTo fight the rising odds?Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?Late at night I toss and turn and dreamof what I needI need a heroI'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the nightHe's gotta be strongAnd he's gotta be fastAnd he's gotta be fresh from the fightI need a heroI'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning lightHe's gotta be sureAnd it's gotta be soonAnd he's gotta be larger than lifeSomewhere after midnightIn my wildest fantasySomewhere just beyond my reachThere's someone reaching back for meRacing on the thunder end rising with the heatIt's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feetUp where the mountains meet the heavens aboveOut where the lightning splits the seaI would swear that there's someone somewhereWatching meThrough the wind end the chill and the rainAnd the storm and the floodI can feel his approachLike the fire in my blood

Other events will be posted shortly, perhaps later though.

In other more recent events,  it's 4:28 a.m. now, but you'll never guess that I'm wide frickin awake for one of the craziest reasons. Tonights festivities include a local bum I've had problems with trespassing and possibly breaking into apartments, harassing tenants, caught crawling through my dumpsters, etc. the same black guy nicki had problems with.
well Tonight at approx 3:37 A.M. my good friend, Ruben, our buildings neighbor, saw the bum break into my building, he woke me up and he watched the downstairs as I made my way up floor by floor throughout the building, checking hallways, doors, community bathrooms. I found the guy on the floor outside 201&202! laying there with his head next to the underside of one of the doorjambs, I almost pounced on him right then, but I didn't want to wake anyone up and scare them to, so I snuck up on the guy and tapped him on the leg and told him he needed to get the fuck up and get out, I followed him down the stairs and out the side door and he stopped, just stood there. I told him he needed to keep going, he said he was waiting on someone, I told him he could go wait somewhere else. he took the hint and wandered off I think.
I came back inside and dialed 311 which is almost like 911 but it's non-emergency police, don't ever dial it, you'll never get anyone to actually respond to it in a timely manner. just call 911 and act like a dying sorority girl, then you might get some response. It's been about 30 min since I've called them and still no response.
So that's my night and now I can't sleep. because this bum got in one time tonight and I don't know how. Ruben says he saw him just walk right up to the door and go in, maybe he's got a key, maybe the door didn't shut all the way. who knows. he got in once and I don't know how.
Guess what dear reader, as I was closing this up, Austin's Finest showed up, took them long enough though the bum is long gone though I know what he looks like, so perhaps 311 does work, you just have to mention that there are females in danger and they'll be on their way.

I still won't be able to sleep tonight though...
