All packed up and ready to go.
Well, I am back. They would not let me take any open food containers so I donated a full bottle of mustard and hot sauce, along with a half jar of peanut butter. Otherwise all my worldly possessions are now in one large white plastic web potato sack.
I do not know where I am going, but between the prison phone number, the
DOCS Web site, and my next letter, you should find out fairly quickly. I forgot to write down my cousin Bill's phone number in Georgia, but hopefully it is listed.
The rulebook says packages are forwarded, but tonight the CO said that they are returned to sender! So please see if you can call and leave a message for my parents to not send food till they get my new address. If by chance you have already found my new address, then I would appreciate you passing that on.
Presumably I will be there by tomorrow evening. I have stamps, pen, and paper so you will get a letter ASAP. So hopefully this time you will know where I am.
Vinnie said he had a typewriter with at least two pages of memory, so this should really put the screws to me in terms of delivering premium, scan-able, well written letters. My plan is to handwrite out some personal stuff, but otherwise the typewriter should be eating up a lot of ribbons.
I packed up all but one of your books, i.e. nine books packed. I am halfway through the one and I hope to finish it tonight. But there is no point in being too wide awake to sit on a bus with handcuffs on.
I did not get any mail today. They said they will forward mail for five days. If you have the chance you could file a change of address at the post office from here to the new place. Just a suggestion, take it or leave it. I did seem to have the fullest bag of about twenty inmates all being transferred. Well, I am going to read for a bit and then will write some more.
