Well, last night was a new ... night. The illegal night club started setting up at 2AM, their usual time. They had cones out and were thus keeping the noise and crowds out of "my" half of the parking lot. But of course they've built up such a bad record that the police came around anyway and shut 'em down. After the police cars had left, some guys hung around outside the place, some of the people who run the operation, as they're the guys who always hang around afterward.
At 5:30AM one of them pounded on my door and yelling at them to identify themselves and saying that I'm calling the police didn't help. The guy just stopped because I didn't open the thing. I called the police, naturally, and the operator didn't seem to think it was anything serious, so the police never came around and the guys, 3-4 of them, just sat in their car in front of my door here, talking and sounding drunk, until they got bored and took off. I eventually got a call back from the police, and I tried to explain what was really going on, and that was that.
After this I got a good flute practice session in because if I lose my situation here, or get smart and leave, busking is the one thing I'll have going for me.
(This is not true in a strict sense, since I could just set up to do buying and selling on my own, by renting a small office or at least a storage unit and doing Ebay on my own, but it would be a ton of work. As much or more work than simply going home and going through the work of getting "situated" back there.)
Tonight they will probably open the illegal night club again and the police will do their thing, the only difference being that since it's Sunday night, if anything happens the cops will have a lot less else on their plates.
So now I'm up to page 26 in the Wye beginning book 1, and have learned a new note, F-sharp. This can get confusing because I can get the same note by pressing down the right hand middle finger instead of the proper way, the right hand ring finger. Flute's got things like that where you can do things a lazy way instead of the right way.
I woke up around 4 this afternoon because I didn't go to bed until about 10AM. It's a crazy schedule but if I have to be watchful while the no-goods are outside doing their thing, then so be it. The whole idea is for things to go back to normal around here. I may not be able to follow a normal daytime schedule until I'm back in Hawaii or at least away from here.

Are you going to repudiate your heritage just because of Trump derangement syndrome?
They probably *will* wind up closing that brothel down for good after...someone...gets shot...
Of course they were going to try to bribe you first, and failing that, whack you somewhere not near the "illegal" business that you just*had* to rat on; either for a pat on the back from the cops, or just to project self loathing, and lash out at the heterosexuals...
