Frankie and I got moved to the centre unit today.  They say they’re painting the left unit, so they moved us all out.  So, we’ve got a pretty good unit together now:  me, Frankie, Jason, [Terrence], Jimmy and Monte.  I’m getting to like Frankies sense of humor.  It’s sort of like mine.

… the French tapes didn’t arrive today, maybe tomorrow.  I’ll be able to get advice from Jim now that we’re in the same unit …John Bradley said to Frankie today that I have “brains coming out my ass” … I guess that’s a compliment …

I kinda enjoyed church tonight.  Frankie has a rash on his dick, and I asked them to pray for him in church.  That was funny.  I got a letter from Jolene, and I was talking to her in church.  She expects to get nine months so maybe she’ll be out around the same time as me.

… it was John’s last night in church, the last time I’ll really get to see him.  I’m going to miss that guy.  We had a lot of good times here.  I’m glad I met him …

Ian was avoiding me today.  I’m getting pissed off about that.  He is going to pay one way or another.  And Larry and Dave still haven’t picked up the package that’s been ready for 3 days now.  I expected more from Larry.  Who can you trust … [Terrence], Frankie, Jason and I emptied out our toilets tonight after lockup.  We can all talk and hear each other clearly.  Jason had the radio on, and we could all hear it loud and clear.  This silly stuff makes it fun in here.  I wish we had the girls in on the line too.  Some nights before we had about ten of us on the line.

It’s a pretty good unit we got together here.  I like it.  It’s sorta fun here.  The guys had a water fight today.  [Terrence] got soaked.

My French lessons came but [Supervisor] won’t let me have them in the unit – only in the library.  He’s such a dickhead.  It would be a lot easier for me if I could work on it with Jim, but I think I am going to catch on to it fairly quick …

This morning [Terrence] messed up my tray and bijous[?] freaked out.  He’s an idiot.  A whiner.  I got hold of Larry tonight and he says he’ll do a favor for me this evening.  I hope he comes through but I’m doubtful.  I’ll know tomorrow … I’m trying to get Ian on my visiting list to get things worked out with him … I’m tired of all this bullshit that people outside put me through …

[Supervisor] and [Guard1] grilled me today about 2 of my phone calls that were monitored.  In the calls I only asked for money but they jumped to the conclusion that I was asking for drugs.  Fucking boneheads.  Infidels.  Also Boujois ratted me out for pissing in dirty trays so I was worried about that … and they will let me bring the French stuff back to the unit but only on the weekends.  I guess that’s ok.  I like to get out to the library during the week anyway …

There was a big drug bust in town today.  They got Whip.  I haven’t seen him yet cause he’s still in lockup.  Tomorrow, I’ll get more information …

Frankie and [Terrence] had a water and shaving cream fight this morning.  It was quite a mess.  And Jim emptied out Frankie’s toothpaste and filled it with lotion, but Frankie caught on …

I saw the doctor about my pills.  They’ve been reduced.  I find that I’m shaky a lot but we’re going to try it for a few weeks and see what happens.

I’ve been working on my French the past few days.  I think I’m coming along well.  I should have a good grasp on it by the time that I get out … Frankie pissed in a really messy tray at dinner and again Boujois ratted us out to the guards … neither Ian nor Ann not Winston showed up to visit today.  And Larry didn’t do anything for us either … Whip is in max now.  Some of these French guys they got are pretty big.  Sounds like Whip was making a lot of money.  Hope there’s some out there for me … looks like it’s going to rain all weekend, so we won’t be getting out.  Guess I’ll work on my French …

My French is coming along well, oui, oui, oui.  I’ve got the tapes in the unit for the weekend.  Jim is a pretty good help to me … Jim got good news from Montreal today.  Things will be good for us when we get out … Larry still never came through.  We’re going to get someone else to take care of it.  That seems to be the only way to get it done.  I hope we don’t have to go through this all over again … I got a letter our to Tyler today.  I haven’t heard from him in a while … the weekend is upon us again, the past few days really went by fast.

September 18

A rainy day.  We didn’t get outside all day.  So, we stayed inside and watched Frankie light his farts, “blue angels” … I spent about three hours working on my French.  Making progress …  John gets out tomorrow, so it looks like I won’t see him again.  John and I got along well.  Guess that’s all I have to say …
