December 7th, 2005:
I am disillusioned and chagrined because the gate is once again locked.
Mere words cannot express my deep rooted sadness that all faith in humanity is leaving my body like the blood being squeezed from some giant, hellish turnip.
Plus - I have to climb the fence again.
This becomes problematic, as I leave after sunset and misjudge the distance from the top of the fence to the street. Once the back of my head has securely found the curb, I am again properly oriented and continue home.
I call Joni again - this time getting her voicemail. I leave a message and hope for a return call, forgetting that the black hole of xmas break will render all attempts at communication useless for a month. Curse you, TUSD holiday calendar!@!#!
(Note: the posted sign states that this facility is for public use from 5PM-10PM on schooldays, and 6AM-10PM on weekends and school holidays - so its not inherently stupid that I was there after dark, although arguably a questionable call.....)
