the last time you called the cops

not quite, but i did get punched in the back of my head.

short version:

i was taking a walk after work, and some kid walks along side me, and mumbles something i couldn't make out. short skinny guy, probably in his late teens. i figured it's just some kid trying to sell me pot or something, so i ignore him and walk a little faster.

but instead, he was distracting me while his enormous friend snuck up behind me and punched me in the back of my head. i stumbled forward a bit & turned around to see both of them yelling 'give us everything you've got!'

i thought about for a second, weighed my odds, thought 'what's the bravest thing i can do right now?'..& i ran away like a little girl.

& they chased me! in broad daylight! on main street, with cars zipping by and people watching. and the big guy almost caught me...i remember very distinctly looking back to see him reaching for me, only inches away. but he was a heavier guy, & couldn't maintain the pace, and ended up falling on his face while i scooted off.

and then i jogged up to the liquor store up the street & called the cops from there.

one of the two times i've been randomly assaulted here. the other time i actually got put in the hospital by a group of teenage girls. i literally was beaten up by a bunch of little girls! shameful.

Not at the gas station, when I was working at the movie theatre.
