I stole her a/c & threw it in the water
My therapist said that as area of our recovery I need to atone for our past sins, and don’t worry this isn’t a religious spiel, it’s a normal aspect of most recovery programs; The theory behind it is that by examining our past & owning up to our awful behavior, I can move on in life & be a better woman.
This little wander down memory lane has been tricky, because I was so drunk & stoned for so several years I lost a lot of memories, and one of the things I entirely know badly about was the time I stole an a/c from a single of our neighbors, and at the time Jim & I did not get along, partially because of the old junky a/c she used, but jim’s apartment was right next door to me, our home office windows were only 20 feet apart, & she used the oldest & most depleted looking A/C unit I’ve ever seen.
This a/c must have been 20 years old, & when it ran it made the most horrible noises. That a/c would keep me awake all night long, & I finally snapped. After Jimmy went to labor a single afternoon I ripped the a/c right out of her window sill, i dragged it across the street & through the vacant lot to the edge of a canal, where I threw the a/c in the water. I didn’t want to use it, I just wanted to shut it up forever, but so now I need to find Jimmy & tell him it was me that stole her AC unit years ago.
