Here is my dilenna: I am writing a true story about a situation that involves a person who contacted me recently for a visit. This person very much likes a person in my story who turns out to be not the hero we saw him as. I don't believe in putting MY feelings about a person onto another person. Ya know? But the basis of my story involves the great depth of villainous deception that existed and I can't pretend I don't know the truth. (The truth in HIS words via court documents. I MYSELF was fooled until I paid for the court copies.)
**For those of you wondering what I am talking about, I have written often about the book I am working on. It is about the social workplace dynamics of a sexual harassment suit at my job with the city of Seattle.**
My way of dealing with this so far has been to avoid the person, though that person was/is a friend of mine...a "C" list friend, haven't seen each other in over a decade. Now, I must explain that this person has made NO attempt to call or visit me in over a decade either, never returned my calls---I pretty much wrote the person off. Now...what do I do? This person is an innocent as far as the story, clueless about any of it. In fact, I was writing about "him" when the person called out of the blue, and brought "him" up! Coincidence? (Side note: Right after the call, I discussed it with partner then we watched Gunsmoke and its lead character had same unusual name as my friend!) (No, Diane is not stoned. Yes, this is the post.)
While I'm writing this I'm watching the Green Bay Packers beating by a touchdown, New Orleans. Maybe I multi-task too much...wait you guys have already told me that. I may have ATM syndrome. Addiction to Multitasking.
I meant to, and should be writing about my adventure going to get new glasses today!! Gawd, my sentences are horrible. The Packers won. To bed I go. Been a long day.
