Monster day!
Today I was very productive - got through two memos for private hearings which both had a folder of brief material. Yeah! Then at the end of the day after Mob left, I stayed back to study for my exam next week, and got through three topics. Then I went to the gym afterwards - yeah!
However, the day wasn't without its struggles. I found myself thinking about Jin's situation. My mind came up with more and more absurd ideas. It all began with the (reasonable?) thought of providing the police with the number which I suspect belongs to the guy who lends her money.
Then I started thinking, maybe I should contact the guy and try to arrange for her debt to be waived, base don the threat of reporting him to the police. Then I started thinking, fuck that, maybe I should try to negotiate for him to return my $25,000 and have him add it back onto her debt.
But then for a second, common sense kicked in - she's so rude to me and doesn't like me anyway, why am I trying to save her?
After that, the paranoia kicked in again. The idea had now changed to telling Jin that I would help her, but only if she provided me with the details of who to send the money to so I could send it. But then instead of sending the money, I would just pass that information onto the police.
So I had to try to shake those thoughts off all day.
After gym, whilst waiting for the bus, I called Victoria. She picked up after two rings, much faster than I expected. I called her Charmander lol. I asked her how she was and if she was better now. She said she wasn't, which surprised me. She said she woke up last Friday morning unable to move her left knee. She said she couldn't really move it and was in pain on the weekend, and it was really red.
She said she went to see the doctor today and had an x-ray, but it still remained a mystery. She said she will have to go to the hospital tomorrow for an MRI at 8am. I offered to drive her but, as expected, she said no. I tried to insist but she said no.
She then asked me how I was, and I told her how I had been studying after work and had just finished at the gym. Also told her that the guy at work also taking the bar exams went home sick today and thinks I gave him something.
I told her I haven't listened to all the music she gave me yet, but I have listened to some and really like it. She said she would give me more hip hop next time from the 90's to early 2000's. What I didn't tell her was that I dropped her usb on the street today and nearly lost it. It must've been tangled with my work lanyard which I stuffed into my bag, and when I grabbed my lanyard out today, the usb fell out with it.
I told her I'd let her rest and ended the call.
When I got home, I went to my garage and dug out my phone. Biscuit had messaged me a few days ago asking me if I missed her. I think she is short on money. I messaged back saying I couldn't go to her place anymore, but would do lunch if she ever needed to talk. I do feel a bit sorry for her and hope she can find a good path, but I won't be giving her any money.
Oh, and the Spurs won today! Woohoo!
