For Gary

I read Moby’s memoir yesterday, and put some of his songs on to go to sleep to last night. In My Heart was playing as I feel asleep, and I dream-heard it throughout the night, thinking about the person who is finding my heart.

“Lord, I want to be up in my heart
Lord, I want to be up in my heart
Lord, I want to be up in my heart
Lord, I want to be up in my heart

Be, ohh, just in my heart, oh Lord
Just in my heart, oh Lord
Be, ohh, just in my heart, oh Lord
Just in my heart, oh Lord”

A short stocky confident man, yes please! Charles is the host of maybe my favorite TV show (Mystery Diners). Normally I am not of fan of facial hair, but I am realizing Charles is a dead ringer for the father of this girl April who I thought I loved in high school (hi Paul). Turned out I was secretly in love err lust with the idea of Paul more than her, ha! John Jernigan-Stiles

When I was younger, and cuter, and more optimistic, I would sometimes sing Somebody’s Baby and picture myself as the person/girl Jackson was singing about…I still believe that I’m somebody’s baby, and that I will meet him soon, right?

Well, just look at that girl
With the lights comin’ up in her eyes
She’s got to be somebody’s baby
She must be somebody’s baby
All the guys on the corner stand back
And let her walk on by
She’s got to be somebody’s baby
She must be somebody’s baby
She’s got to be somebody’s baby
She’s so fine
She’s probably somebody’s only light
Gonna shine tonight
Yeah, she’s probably somebody’s baby, all right
I heard her talkin’ with her friend
When she thought nobody else was around
She said she’s got to be somebody’s baby
She must be somebody’s baby
‘Cause when the cars and the signs and the streetlights
Light up the town
She’s got to be somebody’s baby
She must be somebody’s baby
She’s got to be somebody’s baby
She’s so fine

I drove to Ocala to place nine and one year old siblings in their forever adoptive home this evening. I feel really good about this case. It’s especially rewarding because we battled with the Guardian ad Litem program, who were advocating to split the boys up, because they didn’t feel the nine year old was adoptable. The brothers are laughing and playing and singing songs. I’m taking them to their forever home, with their new mommy and daddy, and I’m Feeling Good!

Grady Judd is the Sheriff of Polk County Florida. As sheriff, backed by a like-minded State Attorney’s Office, Judd has made the signature of his administration child porn stings, Craigslist prostitution stings and so-called cyberstings modeled after NBC’s To Catch a Predator. He has a reputation for being kind of asshole, but he is a cute, stern daddy type.

Grady Judd quotes:

On how many times one of his deputies shot a suspect to kill him:

“Enough.”

On why a man who allegedly had killed a deputy got shot 68 times when he was found:

“Because that’s all the ammunition we had.”

On why he ordered the basketball hoops removed from the county jail:

“I was tired of people driving by the jail and it looking like we were holding recreation for a bunch of criminals.”

On why he took away from the jail corn bread, chocolate milk, boiled eggs and peanut butter:

“If you don’t like the bill of fare at the county jail, behave. Quit violating the law and stay out of the county jail. You can eat anything you want when you’re at home.”

“I don’t care whether they’re guilty or not. That’s of no concern to me. What is of concern to me is that there’s probable cause to believe that they’re guilty. And if there’s probable cause, we’re probably going feed them exactly as if they were convicted.”

On a man who killed most of his family and then killed himself:

“He’ll have the opportunity to burn in hell for it, which is a good thing.”

On Internet predators:

“We’re going to get you. We’re going to catch you. We’re going to chase you to the ends of the Earth if that’s what it takes.”

On pedophile book author Phillip Greaves:

“He is a very sick guy, I mean, I mean, deranged – I mean, he’s just, like, yuck.”

Stealing From Cracker Barrel and Walmart

On Sunday, I had a breakfast date with a nice engineer who works at Lockheed Martin, at the Cracker Barrel in Oldsmar. In addition to devouring my country fried steak with white gravy, pancakes and eggs, when my date excused himself to the bathroom I put the salt and pepper shakers in my pocket, all sneaky-like. Full disclosure, I walked out of the Creighton Walmart with a rack of baby back ribs last month as well…but that was basically due to the stupid worker in charge of self checkout ignoring me for way way too long…but what’s going on here, what’s the real, do I need a DSM diagnosis or sumthin’?

When his girlfriend had to put down her beloved 10-year-old beagle, this thoughtful guy knew just what to do to help cure her broken heart. It’s a rainy Thursday night in St. Pete, and I am feeling kind of sad and lonely. I had a good cry watching this video.

The Gay Road Less Traveled

A friend of mine who used to be one of the hard working under appreciated social workers for the State here in Pensacola has written a book now available on Kindle, John Jernigan’s “The Gay Road Less Traveled.” I purchased it tonight to start it, couldn’t out it down, it was so funny. Graphic, real, and hysterical, John’s writing is endearing, funny, smart and if you happen to be drinking coffee, it may shoot out of your nose at some point during one of his vignettes. You can read it on Kindle.
