The Kid and I spent our Friday afternoon in the office of child protective services thanks to the lovely stalker.
After long individual interviews with each of us, the social worker called me back in to say that the Kid is an awesome kid and that she is closing the case as it was completely unfounded. We joked about how CPS should really stand for “Creates Panic Syndrome”. We also discussed the strain that the stalker is putting on the Kid by putting him in the middle of this shit, but of course the stalker would never see it that way. It would totally fuck with the stalker’s world view that zie is not the awesome heroic savior to acknowledge that zie causes damage.
But case closed, completely unfounded, Kid is an awesome kid.
Afterwards we met up with the amazing Amanda Panda who took us out for the best tacos in the city (Barracuda in Queen Anne). I had 2 sangrias with dinner, which is enough to send me straight to bed. Kid had a coke with real sugar. And now we are back to our end the crappy campaign.
