i've slept in a hotel the last three nights. that's it. i'm evicted.
i talked to the new case management judge on friday and he seemed perplexed. he didn't like what he was learning about the case and seemed to want to undo it but there's no precedent for this. if the court in the end rules a mistake was made, as one clearly was, i am not going to get the apartment back. rather, i'm going to get a giant payout for damages, which are now substantive.
there is some tentative preliminary evidence that the gross freaks followed me here, but i need to be careful before i start accusing anybody of anything, in context. i don't have a lease here.
i've seen a few apartments over the last few days and will see a few more this week. i need to get in some where immediately.
i've also finally converted my agptek mp4 player (running android 8) into a wifi phone using voip. it's basically a cell phone without a sim card so i have no network access but i'm able to make voip calls over wifi, if i'm in coverage. chances are pretty high nowadays that you're going to be close enough to a bank or fast food restaurant at almost all times, but i actually bought it because i wanted to be able to do things like scan qr codes. i am going to, for the first time, find myself carrying a cell-like device, even if it's actually a mp4 player running voip over wifi and not actually a cell phone.
i've been busy and i'm going to remain busy but the first order of business when i get this lease signed is redesigning computer setups and network paths.
this is all the more frustrating because i was and am still right and the court has to this point been wrong. it will work itself out in the end, but i've already suffered an extreme injustice, and the only solution at this point is monetary. it's something to look forward to, but the situation right now is pretty awful.
i don't know right now, in the end, if i'd rather go through the bullshit for a bigger payout or if i would have preferred to avoid all of this and not get compensated for the subsequent hardship. if i do end up with 20-30K in total damages, that is going to buy me a house and that will solve this problem of housing once and for all. i'll certainly be better off, at the cost of 2-3 years of torment and hell. it sort of doesn't matter; there's no longer a choice. this can't be undone, all they can do is pay me for it.
