Brian from the AZ Daily Star calls me to let me know that the city no longer has an IGA (Inter Governmental Agreement) with the school. This has happened with other schools in the area as well.
So, the city no longer has anything to do with the outdoor basketball courts I have grown so fond of, and the sign stating the hours of public access is old and should be removed.
Ouch…..
But - Brian is going to follow up with the school and the district as this is a community issue that he feels needs to be addressed. (Good!)
However - he may want to do a story and get a picture of me climbing the fence. (Ouch ouch!)
The thought of my picture in the newspaper is unpleasant at best, and terrifying upon further rumination. I can see it now - all the times I’ve mocked local articles, making fun of pictures of idiots in alarming and disgraceful situations/poses is coming back to haunt me. The times I’ve silently sneered at an unseemly, unflattering picture of some unaware samaritan made to look like a mutant loser is bearing down on me like a 16-ton-Diesel of Disrespect.

Brian calls and leaves voicemails on cell and home phone, wants me to call him back. I’m just not into it today.
Some days I’m ready to “bang head against wall”, some days I don’t wanna….
