You could also call the utilities and tell them you're her, and you're moving, and need all your services cut off on a certain day.

Aliantha · 11-13-2006, 03:11 PM

She'd have to take the curtains off the rail to piss on them...being a girl and all...

Well, I called the police today and made a formal, written complaint against Princess. Its going to be rather complicated since Princess and I reside in one county and the incident happened in the next county over. Also, Princess's family is wealthy, and I'm poorer than a mouse living in the basement of Focus on the Family. I tried talking to Princess before I made the complaint, but she still wouldn't come up with a dime, and made veiled threats about how vindictive she can be if someone messes with her. She can be, too, so I'm a litle worried about that, and who knows if the police will do a damn thing, seeing as how its Princess and all.

I'd have let it go, but she stole every dollar I had to live on for the rest of the month. I had to call social services for an emergency food basket today. Meanwhile, Princess is down at her restaurant eating filet mignon.

If I suddenly disappear, its most likely because Princess took out a hit man on me.

you will undoubtedly think i'm just being cruel, but i'm not trying to be...

but seriously, WTF were you doing going anywhere at all if $60 is all you had left for the month. it seems to me that anything more expensive than a bike ride would have been pushing the limits of sensibility.

xoxoxoBruce · 11-13-2006, 08:40 PM

She'll probably charge you with kidnapping.

Aliantha · 11-13-2006, 09:48 PM

Well if she ends up with a fine or community service, you'll feel vindicticated, and that's all that counts!

The shared gas to T-ride and back would have been $5.00 each. Mancos is a teensy town of maybe 1,000 people, and there's not much to do here. I don't have a bike and can't afford to buy one.

Plus, T-ride has something called a "free box" which is a structure that takes up about half a block and the wealthy people from T-ride and Mountain Village just drop off all kinds of stuff there for whoever wants it. I've found some beautiful things in that box - designer wool sweators, hardly worn, etc. Once I found 100 brand new stuffed animals at Christmas time that I grabbed up and donated to the local food pantry to be given out with the food boxes for December. You should have seen the look in those little kids' eyes when they got their free animal!

So, for a $5.00 investment, I was hoping to find some warm winter clothes, have a cup of coffee, window shop and go home. Oh, well.

PS On an income of $671.00/month plus $10.00 in food stamps, just breathing is pushing the limits of sensibility. My one extravagance is $19.95 for the Internet. Its cheaper than driving around, as you pointed out, and allows me to make contacts I might not otherwise make, and gives me some sort of window on the world - cyber tho the view may be.

don't misunderstand - princess is a POS and screwed you over so she should fry. but for a couple of years now i've heard how you flat ass broke and yet you always manage to go out, do things, and then get hosed. i'm thinking you'd be better off if you spent $3 of the $60 over at Half-Price Books and didn't leave the house.

11-13-2006, 11:35 PM

I'm tired tonight, but I can't really think of many things I've done in the past few years. At the beginning I had my disability back pay before the ex-monster managed to siphon a bunch of that off. I used most of the rest to pay a year's advance rent on a small cottage, hoping that a housing voucher would come through by the end of the year. I also, put in for every housing assistance available. Nothing came through. Katrina really restrained resources everywhere for the poor. The other thing I did with my remaining back pay was buy a second hand car, hoping it will last as long as possible. I took some camping trips in the mountains. Since I live about 5 minutes from the mountains and camped on BLM land, all that cost was food and gas. I woulda had to eat, anyway. Remind me of my extravagant trips. I can't remember. I did make two trips out here looking for housing because I knew it was more readily available, and I was right. I camped the whole time and I finally got this litle apartment in Mancos. What else?

morethanpretty · 11-13-2006, 11:58 PM

Hold Princess for ransom...that'll pay you back some and then some. And while you have her in your clutches you can torture her! You know like make her eat food from a can (mmmm spam), dress herself, clean up after herself, forego her manicure ect ect.

11-15-2006, 07:35 PM

Update: Princess got arrested yesterday. She claims it was for unpaid traffic tickets and her BF bailed her out. She was being suspicious nice, during this conversation and said she was leaving some stuff at my door for me. When I opened the door later, their was a single pack odf Lean Cuisinen and a pack of cigarettes. That ought to get me through until DEc 3rd, right.

11-15-2006, 08:06 PM

I think you got off cheap... I would never speak to her again for any reason.
Chaos junkies are always expensive in the end, no matter what they say/do today.
Best to pretend she does not exist.
I would not eat something she left at my door.

11-16-2006, 10:35 AM

I wouldn't feed Princess's pack of lean cuisine to a dog. I think she's trying to be nicey-nice to me, so I'll drop the charges. I've already told her that I will never speak to her again, and that I had also ratted her out to her older sister who runs the family. I didn't mention my sworn statement to the police. As my father always used to stay, "Don't threaten. Just do it." I'll let you all know if she goes to trial for her "traffic tickets."

yesman065 · 11-16-2006, 11:07 AM

You go girl - let 'er have it.

Iggy · 11-18-2006, 09:27 PM

Wow. She sounds like a royal bitch. I would definitely follow through with the charges and if something like that ever happens again, warn the person in hysterics that if they call for assitance, they are paying for it. Then guard your purse on your life. Good luck!
