First -

I have decided to fight for my rights instead of laying down and playing dead. With the current legal matter I don't even feel the prosecutor has a leg to stand on. I found out after my initial post that the offer came only after they received the copy of the motion that my lawyer is about to file on Thursday. The fact that they offered me a plea and said that if I go through with the motion the next plea will include jail time made me think they were trying to bully me. That and they keep saying about pending charges and on going investigations over stuff they found on my computers. They've had the computers for almost 5 months now and I have the feeling that they didn't find anything. If they did or if they file charges in the future, I will cross that bridge when I get to it. I think they just want to scare me. I mean, why go further on a failure to register an email charge when they could arrest me for child pornography and throw the email stuff on top of it. It doesn't make sense logically. My thought is, if they are going to charge me they will do it one way or another despite the outcome of this case. Since I didn't put child porn on my computer, I doubt any is there. The real issue was that other people have had access to my computer, but I am trusting that they weren't morons and would hate to think someone would download that shit on someones computer that wasn't their own (they shouldn't download it period, but my point is it is something people should keep to themselves).

My lawyer agreed about trial. I think his initial reaction to the plea was because I noted some hesitancy about going to trial in the first place. Part of me feels that the jury will hear that I am a registered sex offender and not care what followed it. But part of me thinks that at least one person on the jury would be honest and just and that's really all I need. Big Closet is not an email system. It is not an instant message service. Everything is pretty much out in the open. My email account tied to this website has been registered so I am covered.

Now onto new updates.

I just started taking Spironolact 100mg. Last night I took 2 dosages (6 hours apart) and was fine. This afternoon I took a dose and I am feeling very queasy. Any suggestions on how to combat that. I didn't eat before I took the pill, but did afterward. I am trying to keep all the food down. Does this side effect go away at all?

Also in case of something horrible... anyone near Tampa FL that wouldn't mind looking after a house if I go to prison. Erin has said that she will deal with the financial side of life (I plan to rent out house to pay recurring bills) but it would be nice to have some eyes on the place periodically (once a month or two).

I want to write a story. I write 1500 words a day and hope to have something August 19th. It is a sequel to The Wishing Blanket. I got 4500 words and haven't even scratched the surface.
