I need to do laundry but some asshole is on the fire escape doing some kind of work and I don’t want to leave the apartment because I don’t trust strangers being outside of the bedroom window like that. I feel guilty when I waste a day like this but I really don’t have anywhere I have to be until 5 or so. Shari wants me to play badminton with her and then we’re going to Sandy’s to have jerk chicken. Part of me hopes we’ll run into our father. Shari has seen him around where she lives. I want him to know about my mom. That probably wouldn’t be a good thing though. I think I need to get a job in the neighborhood until things get rolling with the temp agency. If they don’t send me on any interviews by thursday and depending on how my mom is doing I might try for a bakery or something for the time being.
