anyone want to help me?


i need to return to pensacola to spend a night in jail, unless someone wants to post the $10,000 bond. ah, heck. i guess i should suck it up, spend the night, and chalk it up to another experience for the "bank of life."

becasuse i had heard no word for three months, i called the pensacola sheriff's office today to find out the status of my citation against pensacola christian college. apparently, there is a warrant out for my arrest.

so, after a night in jail, i will plead my case to the judge, maybe get a fine for trespassing, ask him to make the school give me back my $500, take the money down to west palm beach, pay off the tsa agents who fined me that amount for my airport escapade. then everything will be fine.

on second thought, don't help me. i know there are those who are saying this is what i deserve. i suppose it is. yes...i suppose it is.

"deserving it" is simply a matter of law, i guess, and although i don't think pcc should ever be able to call on the forces of justice to do their bidding, the black-and-white of the state code is another matter. i do know that my boyfriend once spent a night in jail because he and a guy he worked with at wal-mart back then played a phone prank on a co-worker, and the cops decided to treat it as a matter of national security. eeek!

whatever you decide to do, you'll get through it a-ok, i'm sure. you're patrick! i'm sure the p'cola cops have their own ideas about pcc and won't think you're a freak.

Don't deserve it? No responsibility for you actions, that's right.

agreed. I'm pretty sure its just another one of those douchebags from the pccboard.

I look forward to reading your blog on a regular basis, it is a breath of fresh air from a bubble that I will call fundamentalism. I think that you should write a memoir about your many experiences. I would definitely endorse it and I would make sure that Barnes and Noble does too.

i hope after this, Patrick, that you can put PCC behind you ... all of its scandal, legalism, nightmares.

Everytime someone finds out that i graduated from there, they're shocked ... and i have to check myself. they want to know about the rules, the demerits, the floor leaders, the Campus Church ... and with an extreme amount of effort I tell them about all the good memories i had there: my friends, my classes, some of my teachers, nights at the CA, dramatic productions, etc.

Otherwise, i find myself sinking into bitterness.

you're out of there. it's behind you. move on to the bigger and better things that lie before you. Hollywood?

and i've been praying for you. Praying that the Lord would quicken your heart to being sensitive to His calling on your life.

Live for Him ... not for yourself or for the moment. With Him ... it's eternal. Living by faith is so exciting. The places I've been, the people I've met, the things I've been able to do ... all because of God and His leading. amazing! I hope that whenever I leave those places that they don't remember "the tall girl from Germany" but that people get a sense that "Christ was there."

If you're ever in Louisville ... come find me. But leave your Vespa at home ... i might steal it and ride it out to Seattle.
