Yesterday, after dinner, I waited, in line, to enter the homeless shelter. I entered, when they opened the gate. I set my stuff down, on a table, to reserve the space, for myself. I sleep sitting up. I sat there, for a while. It was still early, when I went to the bathroom, and, to smoke a cigarette. I'd left my stuff, on the table, to reserve it. The attack on me, personal, launched a group of terrorists, on dirty systems, onto me. I waited outside, in the courtyard, for a while.
When I went back inside, my stuff was on the table. People were sitting, at that table, again. My blanket, that had been on top of everything, was gone. I went outside, and, told security.
I'm devastated. It was the big, warm blanket that I bought, at Fred Meyer, before Christmas. My other blanket was in my backpack, when it was stolen. It was big enough to throw over my shoulders, and, was warm, and, snuggly. I cried, all night. The attack was painful.
On March 27, my first night at the shelter, I laid it on the floor. When I did, I heard quiet chatter, "That's the blanket I want you to steal...Not tonight..."
Today, the attack is so bad, over-loafed, dirty, painful, crippling, that I don't know when I can go pick up the money transfer.
