Oh, fuck! I think fucking Mike’s back and his new vehicle to drive is a red pickup. On the other hand, maybe it wasn’t him. It seems I remember seeing a truck like that 3 or 4 times since they moved in and some white guy was in it. Whoever it was pulled up, then took off right after. They were only here for a minute and the music wasn’t very loud. In fact, at first I wasn’t sure what I was hearing, then I went out and looked. I never did see the driver, though, as they were leaving, cuz the hedges were in the way.

I just hope it stays as peaceful over there as it has been. She’s gonna be itching to be outdoors more, though, cuz she loves the heat. She may not have a boyfriend now, but I’m sure she’ll call her friends to come barbecue out in the heat with her at some point. I hope all is quiet here when my folks get here and that includes those fucking dogs.

Bunny’s kind of being trained to go to the door when he wants to go in. It’s pretty neat.

It’s a hot one out there today. Nearly 100º. A couple of days ago I took a dip in the spa and I did today too, as well as got me a little color.

Tom’s still doing the same old thing. Showing no desire for sex while he says he did want it. Sex seems to be his lower priority, but what can I do about it? I just have to accept it and hey, he’s an opposite-doer. He knows how much I want to have fun more often, so knowing that, of course, he’s gonna go the other way. Well, maybe he and Marla are right when they say that if I just relax, things will happen. I’m gonna try my best to do so and to just accept things the way they are, however they are.

Later...

Tom’s still at his ma’s, cuz doing for her is more important than our time together. At least he’s gotten a lot done around here. He still has more to do, so I hope he’ll be ready for me by no later than Wednesday. After he’s done neatening up his stuff in the back room, then I’ll go around and clean.

The John Saul book Black Lightning turned out to be nothing too great. It’s more of a murder mystery than his usual supernatural suspense story type of book. I can’t wait to read the rest of the Blackstone Chronicles, though.

I’m reading the second book out of some of the ones Ma gave me and I’m almost done with it, so I’m gonna go read some more now.
