pandora's box

Went to sleep at around 5:00 AM on Sunday. (Well, Monday morning). I dont remember what I was doing for four hours, but I do remember hanging out with Anisha till 12:30, and then getting home at 1:30 because I had to take surface roads all the way back home from Cerritos. The I-5 South was closed off at Artesia and Shrek III wasn't as good as I had hoped it would be.

My family is in Boston this week. The power was out in my house all day, so I came home to a dark and empty house that's starting to smell a little funky.

Someone calls me at 3:00 AM asking for Miguel. Who the hell is Miguel?

"There's no Miguel here. It's 3:00 AM."
"WHO?"
"You have the wrong number, sir."
"EH?"
"It's 3:00 In the morning..."
"Miguel?!?"
*click*.

I dick around till 5:00, like I said, and finally goto sleep... only to wake up at 7:00, when my uncle finally comes home from San Diego and drops by my place to fix the power in my house. And then there was light. Finally. I drift back to sleep after he goes home, but he calls at 8:00 asking me what I had done last night.

"What do you mean? I went to see a movie, and then I came home."
"Well the cops are looking for you. They came last night and asked Aaron about you."
"Could it be my registration? It's expired and I've had this ticket for two months now. But they dont send cops after you for an unattended ticket."
"Did you hit and run?"
"What the hell are you talking about?"

I scribble down a number that the deputy left my little cousin for me to call. I call but theres no answer, so I leave a message and scratch my head, wondering why the cops would be looking for me. I know my car is registered under my uncle's address because I was living with him back then, which explains why the cops came to his house instead of mine. 

Could it be the tussle I'd gotten in two weeks ago? Nah, I didnt even do much damage to the bitch that was hanging all over my boyfriend all night, then requested some privacy with him when I returned from the restroom. Besides, that was two weeks ago. If she had reported me to the authorities, she would have done it sooner. And she attacked me first anyway.

My dad calls. I explain to him that I didn't do anything, so I dont know why 5-0 would be after me. My mom calls. I dont understand why my dad didnt just relay the information to her. I explain for the second time that I have no idea what's going on.

My brother calls. My sister calls. My uncle calls again. My boyfriend calls... my older cousin told him everything. He wants to make sure I call him if I get arrested.

I call joemar, a little pissed off at this point, and he jokes that I should stop cocaine trafficing and selling my body for weed.

Later in the afernoon, I goto my uncle's for dinner, and while I'm driving back home, I get pulled over. The deputy wants to know about my ex boyfriend. I haven't spoken to him in a year. He violated the terms of his probation and skipped town. Good riddance I say. Even when he's not around me, he's causing me all sorts of stress and anxiety.
