Delaney @>+-+--
2009.06.22
I'm very tired. I worked 76 hours on this job, about three times what I estimated; my right hands hurts in a whole new way. Someone wants me to work tomorrow, too.
The good news is that Delaney is back. He was detained unfairly and illegaly, and the federal court will hear his case this week. He sat in jail for a year, and he spent that whole time in the library. His vocabulary has really increased and I believe he is going to win his case. A lot of things went wrong while he was in jail, though, and those things are going to be tough to fix.
We went down to Redwood City Sunday to take my mom to a wedding. It's great to have a change to hang out with my people sometimes. I'd like to do it a lot more but it's hard to get my head around the badness of the Old Testament and the goodness of the folks who more or less believe in it. E worked this out for himself somehow, but the New Testament is a LITTLE easier.
I saw my cousin Gene on Sunday morning, first time in 40 years we had had to hang out. That was nice. There was some bad news, though: his kids don't speak to each other. That's pretty sad. Siblings are such a great opportunity. I hope things improve for them.
And Barry and I said goodbye to friends at Enssaro in Oakland. I thought I didn't like Ethiopian food, but I was wrong. http://www.yelp.com/biz/enssaro-oakland
