The Beat Goes On in Packrat

Asylum Cemetery Project. The drama just goes on. and. on. Last week I sent an email stating that my nation will not take part in the project and cited the reasons why - no permits, no permission, where will our money go?, we are not part of what she named the United Tribes, she has no official recognition, she doesn’t speak for us, and in my dealings with her she has been rude and dismissive.
…After that I heard from a couple of tribes that 1) one gave her the benefit of the doubt but thought the project “hokey” to begin with and “fishy” when Crazy asked for funds and wanted them right away, and 2) another tribe is doing its own investigation on her.
…Crazy’s rambling blame missive says the official group started emailing us and turned “three THPOs and two tribes” against her. I don’t know who the others are, but I’m sure she was the reason; further, I tracked down the group, they didn’t reach out to us to throw a wrench in her plans as she insanely claims. She claims to be protecting the cemetery on her own, but frankly I don’t want her near my family (I have a relative buried there). She further claims that the city, county, and golf course want the cemetery removed, which is not the case.
…She claims she was threatened when someone told her she “doesn’t know what she’s getting into” - as a traditional person, I understand this; it’s not a threat as she sees it but more a warning regarding the spirit world. Although she touts personal spirituality, she has no clue about this.
…She’s so off the mark in her email, but for anything to be done there she needs all of us plus the permits and permission she doesn’t have nor is she seeking it even now. I could argue and set straight what she says, but that’ll just keep her delusions going. I think she really does have a mental problem.
Play. I’m not feeling it. I’m not going to Yale - I hate to give up going to Yale and seeing my old friend, but the only reason I’ll be there is for the play, and when I don’t go I keep some of its credibility away (unless the chief or our tribal attorney attend, but they’re not). If I were to use tribal funds for this, I couldn’t justify the trip, and I’m thinking that maybe I should instead take a trip to inspect the asylum cemetery for myself or head to the Land of the Wordsmith to see how much room our exhibit will have in the new Fish and Wildlife Visitors’ Center.
S. Last Friday everyone at S’s law firm took off early; in the late afternoon S called and said he was scared and lonely there all by himself! lol

Timesheet day! Per my usual, I almost forgot - someone just called to remind me. After nearly 20 years you’d think I’d reach a point where I could remember on my own. As much as I may need a break right now, I still marvel that I get paid for doing this!
