Wednesday, December 4: Arrival in Philly


Hi! What a day in the world that I live in. Checking up on Mike in the morning talking to Bob about the furniture that I’m gonna get for Mike’s Apartment 



getting the furniture there and yoga in the afternoon. Also, I have an appointment

 at 2 o’clock, I can’t miss. For some reason, my bladder has been very 

active this evening or this morning whatever it is I can’t tell what time it is. Well right now it’s 25° in Philadelphia. It 
is 5:26 AM. We just landed at Philly International Airport. I’m gonna try to put on a sweater cause it’s going 

to be a shock to the system. We got an airport we’re in terminal and we did have to walk a bit to get to the ground transportation. We found the Uber stopped pretty quickly so we first called Lyft and
that was $33 an Uber was $13 less than $20 so I obviously called Uber we got in and front door. The door chest was jammed open and we walked inthe space heater was left on so it 

kind of smells part of the apartment it’s now 6:30 AM. Well, we got to Mary’s and she cooked up some veggie burgers and we had two of them with 🍅 and avocadosThey were delicious. Turns out Mary left on her space heater on the entire trip. Well, I kept going on and off, but it definitely smell like burnt filament, but there’s no damage. That’s really good. 

After that impromptu breakfast, we took a nap and I got up around 10 o’clock got myself together and headed out towards home to drop off 
all my stuff and to get 

a little organized. Well, I got home pretty quickly on the train dumped 

my stuff off grab some food too bring to Mike’s and then went to Mike’s and turned on 



the heat because the place was frigid and the window was wide open 

threw away some garbage made sure the Mom’s Meals was taken care of which it 

was and then I spoke to Mike. They’re sending them to Rehab today 

approximately 1 PM today. It’s the same place at the block from his house. He asked me to 

bring shorts and a pair of glasses.I talked to Bob and looks 

like our mission is gonna be spread out into next Monday to Tuesday. He’s not sleeping

 over tonight he will be calling me and then picking me up and 

we’re going to a storage unit up in the great Northeast to take a look at stuff he has to 

get a van etc.. It’s at 12:36. I’m walking to the hospital to check up 

on Mike. I got the Mike’s hospital room, which was room 510. I got there and 

almost immediately when I arrived with his stuff guy with the gurney 

came over and the lunch came over at the same time so the guy in the gurney waited

 for my detail of his lunch And they were on time. They got

 there about 5️⃣ after one and they took Mike on the gurney and put him in the ambulance they were very nice and efficient guys there. I wrote in the

 ambulance with Mike. Last time I wrote an ambulance when I was beaten up by the crazy friend of Carl’s had a party

 in 2007 in June. Good times

 indeed.😬 anyway, we got to the rehab place and he was placed into room 520. It was really good that they were so efficient because I really
 had to be 



on time for this appointment or lose $150. Turns out the appointment was scheduled for tomorrow at 2 PM, but I had to cancel it because I 


have no idea what’s gonna be happening with Bob picking me up and drive me 
up to the great Northeast for Mike’s bed so I 

just canceled it till next Wednesday by that time, Bob will be gone and Mike will be out of rehab and think she’ll be normalHe was understanding but a little miffed anyway.

Anyway, I left and Philly traffic was being weird and I got that on video. Anyhow, I decided since I wasn’t gonna be in add an appointment I’m.
going to 

Get a slice of pizza to eat since I really haven’t eaten anything since my veggie burgers early this morning it’s now 2:15 PM. The pizza was really delicious. I really
needed it to eat since I had eaten since seven in the morning. So I have to eat the pizza I went to Mike’s and called the 17th district for 
to file a 

police report and they told me to contact 911 and then a police officer will be dispatched. Well, I called 911 and the operator was really polite patient and we Took care of that call and the officer 

showed up pretty promptly. I thought maybe wouldn’t show up for hours since it was such a minor case. The officer was very professional, took down the information and told us the reality that could take a long time to process. The officer then called 

Greg the VP of Citadel and they question Mike’s dates of when this happened well, the bank has it 

information clearing on the 29th but Mike was in the hospital on the 29th. It happened on the 27th which was the day before 

Thanksgiving. Obviously the banks aren’t processing anything on Thanksgiving and the day after 

Thanksgiving is the 20 nice. Anyway, Mike was not pleased by all that but he said he’d sleep on it. It’s  now 4:49 PM. I went to Mike’s Apartment

 went back and picked up. The thermos did a little bit of cleaning and replacing trash bags, 
etc. I then went to the 5:30 PM Hot class. There’s a new woman at the front desk is very nice. I was definitely off my rhythm, but I went to the classroom. It was humid and very packed all kinds of new people

 join in the eight days that I was gone. It was very packed like old dazed packed. I made it through and Dan was good as usual and then took a quick shower and then went to Linda Yin class. That 
was very mellow and she played that song that I’ve loved. It’s very earthy and ethereal at the same time. Mike wrote back to me in text and wanted a couple things to bring to his rehab room. 

Things like diet Pepsi and I don’t know what he doesn’t like his room. He saw a mouse and he said the food taste bad there. And now getting some Indian food and hopefully some iced tea and right now the wind’s kicking like chicken it’s now 9:13 PM time to get some Indian and eat and then I’m just gonna take Uber home because it is windy and they’ll charge me for it too.
