Houstonist: Kingwood teens say fake cop fondled them
Houstonist: Kingwood teens say fake cop fondled them: "As if we needed one, here's another reason to steer clear of fake cops: In Kingwood, two teenage girls say a man posing as a policeman conducted, uh, an unwanted search Sunday night.
Tori Wainright and Shelley Genovese, both 17, say they were hanging out in the parking lot of a Kingwood apartment complex when a man approached them and claimed to be a cop looking for stolen bikes. He demanded to see their IDs and then proceeded to look for the bicycles in two highly unlikely places: He fondled the girls' breasts, they say, and used a flashlight to look down their pants.
'He seriously moved my underwear out of the way,' said Genovese.
'He looked down my pants first, and we looked at each other,' said Wainright. 'I was yelling all sorts of stuff and she said this is sexual assault. We just grabbed our keys and left.'
The girls gave police a description of the man: He's white, in his late 20s, around six feet tall and about 200 pounds. He had short brown hair and a goatee, was wearing a blue mesh cap with a police or fire insignia and was driving a two-toned Ford F-350 pickup. Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers at 713.222.TIPS."
I may have had problems because I moved all my sleep times up in order to try and let me get tired before my first 90 minute sleep that I had problems. The day went fine other then being a little tired all day.
90 Minute Nap
Went fine only I moved it to midnight instead of 11:30. I was tired upon waking but I managed to make it until my moved up to 4am 20 minute nap.
20 Minute Nap
Complete failure. Slept through my alarm and woke up when I was suppoed to wake up from my three hour at 11am. A 7 hour sleep in what was suppoed to only be a 20 minute one. I have been having a lot of problems with the 20 minute nap. It is not helping me but seems to be hindering me by it's lenth. I am thinking about changing the time to another 90 minute nap. Will try it tonight.
180 Minute Nap
It merged witht the 20 minute one. I cancilled my math class for today as I slept until I was suppoed to in class.
So what was in my wallet that needed to be talked about? Nothing, lol! I got worked up for nothing. She just wanted to know how to get it back to me. Time to check Joey's blogs to see how he is doing.
It actruly worked after my 3 hour yesterday. I was energetic, more so then I had been in a long time, I wized through all the math I was have tremendous amounts of trouble doing just days ago and understood my new math work without any trouble speeding through it with very little use of my much used calculator. I felt amazing and I did NOT get sleepy as 11 came closer. Unfortunately that's where the good stops.
90 Minute Nap
Work: I got out late again and had just enough time to put my grocery's away before I was due to start my nap. The nap was all together a disaster and my friends were no help whats so ever but they don't know that so shh. I went to bed giving myself plenty of time to fall asleep but have found that perhaps I should wait awhile after work to take this nap as I was still high on adrenalin the last two hours of massive speed cleaning gives me.
After work I am and was last night reared and ready to go. Needless to say it took a LONG time to fall asleep and even then I couldn't have been asleep for more then ten minutes when my phone which is also my alarm clock rang. It was really weird and it disoriented me for a moment because it was: A. Not my ring, B. very soft and C. My phone was on vibrate and should not have rung in the first place. But it did and I was awake again so I picked it up. It was my good friend Laura. And I was serious about the good friend part. She needed to come over a few so I said okay and decided I was not meant for this nap. Looking at the clock I was told it was just twenty minutes until I had to get up anyways. The 90 minute nap was a complete failure and needs to be worked on during the days I work.
20 Minute Nap
I decided that since I have the day off I could lay in bed until I fell asleep and gave myself plenty of time on my alarm to do it. I also decided that since I did not get my 90 minute I would do my naps in the Math class schedule which I think will be a perment occerance as I can't stay awake long enough to still be awake at 6am for my 20. As I set my alarm I noticed the voice mail picture was up so I went ahead and pushed the call button and another good friend of mine who really does not live close came on the machine.
On a recent adventure with her I accidentally forgot my wallet at her house. We have been discussing ways to get it back to me and I have been doing a lot of odd jobs for my friends around here to earn eating money with out my card to use to buy food. When she came on the machine it was normal then she tells me that I need to call her so that we can discuss what she found in my wallet. WHAT THE HELL?!? I don't really care she went through my wallet/planner, but what could she have found that would need to be talked about??? I am completely freaked out and was right as I was supposed to take my second nap as well. Crap. It took forever to make my mind shut down and fall asleep for what turned out to be a little less then 20 minutes.
180 Minute Nap
I had little to no trouble falling asleep for this one though I had to stop my mind from wondering to my wallet several times before I got there. Being it was the middle of the night I could not really just call and ask. I woke up at the time I was supposed to but was so tired I quickly hit snooze and fell asleep for an extra 30 minutes before dragging myself out of bed and coming out here to do this. I am so tired at the moment, perhaps another quick 90 minute nap should be planned just for today in an attempt to make it through the day. In the mean time I have a friend to call. I got her machine, but her ring was encouraging! “Every thing's going to be alright, rockabye.” I will post the answer in my next posting.
Well I did it! Got my first nap done and have to admit I am exhausted. It has to be normal for the beginning. Your body had been sleeping for a lot of hours straight for a long time and you up and try to change it, you can't expect it to feel outgoing when it's beginning you to please if you know what's good for you, go back to bed!
I was surprised at how easy it was to fall asleep in the first place, as it was a full 4 hours before I normally even get tired enough to go to sleep. But I closed my eyes and the next think I know that blasted alarm is ringing in my ears. All I can say is thank God it was not one of those chocked up horn alarms that is most common. Just hearing one of those on TV makes my skin itch. After so many years of having one it's like nails on a chalk board, and unless I am desperate I won't use one.
My schedule will be off quite a bit twice a week I realized upon waking as during what should normally be my 180 nap time is also the time I have a Math class. Ugg, so I have spent the last ten minutes trying to rework this sleep schedule so that I can get all of my sleep in before math then work. The result is all my sleep schedules will have to be a lot closer together. You are supposed to spread your 90 minute nap and your 20 minute nap six hours apart. But having to move my 180 0ne so that I am getting up an hour before math and not being able to budge my 90 minute one due to work, results in having to have my 20 minute nap only around three hours after my 90 minute one. Is this making any since to anyone but me? Here is my schedules.
On a NORMAL WORK DAY:
6am-6:20am = 20 Minute Nap 11am-2pm = 180 Minute Nap 3pm-11pm = Work 11:30pm-1am = 90 Minute Nap
On a MATH WORK DAY: 3am-3:20am = 20 Minute Nap 7am-10pm = 180 Minute Nap 11am-12:30pm = Math 3pm-11pm = Work 11:30pm-1am = 90 Minute Nap
That should make more since. I don't even know what I am going to do when my next AM or MID shift comes up. Then the entire schedule will have to change completely just for that day. LOL! Oh well, let's just see if I can stay awake in till 3 am as it is a Math day! Really this is probably a good thing as I don't think I would make it to 6am.
20 Minute Nap Day One
Okay so I honestly don't know if I fell asleep or just blinked. I'm afraid I did not feel well rested with this one either but once again it is only the first day. And doing the 20 minute so soon after the 90 minute one could also be a problem. That's why this is an experiment I suppose. I can only hope it get's better and that after my 3 hour nap I wake up refreshed enough to do math as I am having trouble with it as it is.
180 Minute Nap Day One
I did it!!! A full night with only 4 hours and 50 minutes of sleep! WAAHOO!! So how do I feel at the end of it? Surprisingly like would every morning upon waking up. But maybe, just slightly less tired. Weird. Now I suppose the question would be how will I do through out the day? Will a get tired faster as my impending bed time draws much, much closer to when I am at work? Or will this fresh bout of energy spring me through the day until 1130 tonight the time when the cycle starts all over. Furthermore, will I be able to stand trying to stay awake for the much longer amount of time as tomorrow is NOT a math day? Hmmm.... Well this is an experiment, let's see what happens!
Okay I am going to try it! Joey is a friend of mine and I am really want this to work. Watch the video to find out what it is all about. Anyways I am going to post my sleep journal here and on my myspace to track my progress. Want to do it too? Give it a try! Joey would like to know how you do since this is really his sleep system! Here I go!
Please note: you will want to get a full nights sleep the night before you start.
I think most would not have even noticed the date had The Omen not decided to play it for all it's worth. But they did and now the big talk is how today will be the day the devil will walk through the door. I think that if that was going to happen it would have happend in the on the date 6-6-6 Or on the date 6-6-1006. But humans are all still here so no those were not the end of the world days as people seem to fear. (NO Y2K PEOPLE!)
Still the same, it's better to becareful if your leaving the house today. The worl won't end but that wont stop people from acting like it will, in the middle of the road, on the side walk, in the stores... My mom has forbidden me to leave the apartment without the family today to be safe. We don't like the number 666, and try to avoid it as much as possible. SO I will be spending my scary day in the air port's most secure location as I train in the family business.
First however I have to get there, and that's the scary part. Stupid drunks.
It's now officaly hurricane season again. We bring it in with a floor watch. WATCH?? Try flooded! I got to the bottom of my apatment and a duck swam by! The parkinglot is at least half a foot under water, and I am sorronded by a giant swamp! Bring out my rain boots, poncho, and umbrella as I walk to work.
But I love storms! I really do! Well as long as it thunders! Just rain storms are boring. LOL! The clouds are awesome though.
My gosh, I must have thrown up today more times then I have ever have in my life. I threw up until there was litterly not a drop of foor or even water left in my body. I feel so lousy and incridably lucky that this was my day off! LOL! Now I am trying to rehydrate and get something in my body. But most of inbtween throwing up and sleeping I got to work on a haunting project.
A friend of mine is being attacked what can only be discribed as a demon. Since getting involved in the project a few strange things have happened to me but I am not worried, I have my ideas to what is happening amd am going to go stay the night over there probably next week.
June 10th I am going on a group ghost hunt with a bunch of ghost hunters, think it's going to be a lot of fun.
How exactly did my life turn around back to ghost hunting? Next thing you know I am going to be off chasing Tornados! (Which I am still going to do some day. )
Well I ended my night or you could say started my day with a big change for me, I dyed my hair red! MWAHAHA!
Went to the eye doctor today and was told that other then a little bit of dryness my eyes are perfectly fine. That is a relief. Considering everyone it seems on both sides of my family have glasses I had thus far been really lucky. Wahoo! Really did not want glasses. Anyone the lady checking me out as I struggled to see through my safety sunglasses for my dilated eyes did not see my insurance information and I had to check out twice once for $72 then to take that off and to pay my $10 after I asked her if the $72 was with insurance. Man my eyes hurt. Because my eyes are so light, even the smallest light hurts at this point. The doctor pointing his light in my eyes was killer, but for the first time I did not leave a eye doctors office with a headache. LOL!
Yesterday customers came in telling us of an emergency landing at the air port. Curiosity piked I called my mom who was working at air traffic control at the time and heard that is had someting to do about popped tires. Well here is the what happened.
Flight 3161 made an emergency landing on runway 15 after the two back tires of the plane popped at take off. They flew around the airport twice in order for the officials to take a look at the tires. They even used media footage to get a better look.
Then the plane flew around for about 2 hours in all to burn fuel. They do this in case the landing goes bad, they don't want to explode. The landing was smoother then the take off however and everything was fine. Officials are still looking in to why it happened in the first place.
My first marathon is officialy under my belt. Dressed in my company's very plaine uniform my friend and I walked around 6 miles to help babies born to early as my brothers were. I had a lot of fun and look forward to more. Now time to get ready for work, can't beleive they are making us work after that. LOL!
I watch in utter terror once again as the A&E movie Flight 93 reminds the world of that horrible day. A look into a flight few remember on that September 11th morning. I remember the horror, the feeling that I was going to vomit my heart racing, my stomich shaking, and as I watch this I feel it all again as if i is happeing now. Shivers running down my entire body, my hands shaking. It's almost worse this time as I develge into the lives of the passenger on board. As I am near an airport I can hear the almost constent sound of planes coming in and going out and it reassures me that this is not happening now, I am afraid it could again. We are fighting in a war to stop this. This HAS to stop!
Did another weeked running the camps. With one camp having over 900 girls plus staff, we needlessly said; had plumming problems. But it had to happen in the worst possible location, the kitchen!! There is something about walking hungrily into a kitchen only to find it three inches deep in...yuck. The the sewer overflowed coming up through toilets, drains pipes...ewww! I turned right around and radioed the ranger on call. I am a vollunteer and the ranger get's paid. Need I say more? Anyway in the end from what little we got out of the plumming we have evidence to beleive that someone somehow flushed a sleeping bag!
My friend Ducky was there lifeguarding, haven't seen her in a year and she is suddenly SKINNY!!! She was bigger then me last I saw her, now she is a tiny little thing! I did not even requinize her! Now I know it it possible.
Pi and I seemed to grate against each other all weekend. She seemed really tired and all she wanted to do was go off with her buddies instead of doing what we came to do. I really enjoy riding the Mule through the trails day and night going from camp to camp migling, picking up a smore here and there. I had to fight here to do it and then we only went to one or two. Let's just say that there are at least 12 units, each with two groups in them. I got 0 smores and the places we did not get to gave us a lower rating.
I look forward to RRing these days the only thing I think Pi looks forward to is going home. I will still look forward to it though. If we keep with the way we have been doing it for a long time my next RR with her will be in December. I have a few friends however I might take to the next big RR meeting to get signed up then I can go more often and with other people.
So I went to the blood center to give blood and become a marrow doner volunteer. I was just fine give the blood and right after. Well I was about to get up to leave when my stomach turned and the room wobbled violently. I felt like I was going to vomit before everything went black. I remember what I was dreaming when I passed out. I was floating rocking side to side in a wave of colors feeling sea sick then I felt like I was being pulled then the next thing I knew I was awake, my nose was burning and there were tears running down my face. They had used an amonia stick, it was so strong you could smell it across the room. They lifted me up and placed a bucket on my chest in which I promtly vomited.
From Laura's point of view I was sitting there then suddenly went limp. The nurses began to call my name, then I began to shake. They layed me down so that my head was lower then my body and pulled out the amonia stick.
When I went in my pulse was 98, when they took my vitals right after I woke up it was down to 60 when I left it was 70. My beginning BP was 112/68 my ending was 110/60.
Wow, that was intresting. Now about the giant brusing and red marks all over the inside of my arms, I look like a user! If I get a chance I will take a picture.
Yes I went into work and we did not get out until 11:30pm.
No bones about it, you're a good-hearted, people-loving Bernese Mountain Dog. Down-to-earth and loyal, no one works or plays harder than you do. You put your nose to the grindstone when it really counts, but you never neglect your social calendar. Simultaneously strong and sweet, you're very tuned-in to the feelings and needs of the other dogs you run with. Without having to be asked, you always have a helping paw to lend and a sympathetic shoulder to lean on. "Communication" is your middle name, and when that's paired with your unswerving devotion, you get a breed that everyone respects and trusts. Woof!
Laura and I have been working on working out as much as we can. Inbetween kids, work and life in general we are trying and have been trying for an hour each day. For the most part we have been successful! Today was spent unpacking, and watching Laura's boys, an hour in the gym and an hour in the pool/hot tub. Tomarrow is promiced to be an extreamly long one as well. :) But I think it will be fun as well. Well tell you all about it tomarrow night.
Someone else is reading this! Wahoo! :) Hey Pi! I had a list of things I wanted to write for today but in typical Lauren fashion I lost the list and can't remember anything that was on it. :) I was asked what my favorite quote was, it is the following:
Ascendare astris iterum atque iterum. it means: To rise to the stars once more and again.
Jessie and I rented a movie and she is going to stay with me tonight. James left back for training, (still can't beleive he is a Marine now) (But I am really happy for him!) and we don't know when he will be back. So like she did during boot camp she is going to stay with friends at night. I would more then likly do the same. She really misses him. I have popcorn and a bunch of drinks, so put on the comedy!
AM shift seemed longer then normal, but hey I was fully awake for the whole thing! :) I managed to stay awake even after work and hauled my laundry to the laundry mat and spent two hour waiting for them to be clean and dried. Over all a boring day. I ate dinner at Laura's an played with Kiana and Kaden. Tonight when the babies have gone home I will go back and we will work out. :)
I was walking around the apartment complex and found ducks in the pool and some really wonderful sights. As soon as I find my card for my camera and the cord to move the pictures to my computer, I will take pictures of it and post them here.
Got my vcr hooked up to my tv and dvd player so that I can start recording my tv shows like Grays Anatomy. I love that show but have not seen it in forever.
Went to church today, it been SO long! I promiced God that if He helped me with the move I would start going back to church. I wasn't going to go today as I don't know where any are, but as I was going to sleep I had a feeling I would anyways, and this morning I got dressed in a dress and just began to walk. There is a church 20 minutes walking distance from here and that was where I ended up. It was a good survice. Stopped at the donut shop on the way back. Think I will make that part of my Sunday tridition. Sounds good to me!
Have morning shift tomarrow, need to do laundry when I get home. Gosh I can't wait until my day(s) off.
Anyone know how to change the link section to the left?
Another normal day with the exception of closing. Somehow (and I really don't know how) we managed to finish at ten pm! Normaly we are doing really good if we get out at 11pm! Huh, go figure! So in my extra time I bagged. That was a fun change.
The day was a normal day on Ass the Cafe Runs. I got my badge to work at the air port! Wahoo! Now to find another job that pays more and has insurance. We will see, I am going for TSA, but they sure are taking there time posting the job up. I am told soon.
Anyways I am going to become more active in chariy events and the like. I have joined the March of Dimes five mile walk downtown.
Every year, half a million babies in the U.S. are born prematurely. Premature birth is the leading cause of newborn death and many life long disabilities. The funds we raise in WalkAmerica support research that saves babies' lives.
Our mission is to improve the health of babies by preventing birth defects, premature birth, and infant mortality.
The walk is on the 30th of April. On the 29th, I am going to go to a meeting with Team in Training which is part of the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
All TNT participants are involved in a lifesaving mission: to help the Society cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and to improve the quality of life of patients and their families. They will train me to walk the really BIG walks, the 20 something mile walks. :) Then once I raise enough money they will pay for flight and hotel stays where ever I decide to walk.
Which brings me to my idea. I am going to ask the apt complex wo writes the news letter and if I could contribute articals. Then at some point I can talk about TNT and ask for donations through that as well. Also talk to HEB about donating and maybe matching donations or something.
So I will back date this in order to keep it with the day I am writing it for, but the time right now is 2am April 7th. Anyways, work was normal with the exception of really being very dizzy later in the night. Maybe my single really small hotdog was not enough for dinner but that's all I was hungry for. I made it through then got to Walmart with Monica at around midnight since we did not get out of work until 11:30pm. FINALLY got my cheap microwave and am happy with it, even if it does use a knob instead of buttons.
Checked my blood pressure
BP: 109/62 Pulse: 86
BP is a little lower then normal, cause of dizzyness maybe? Will Look up. Pulse was impressive for me. Last time I checked that was my resting pulse, not my running around Walmart after running around work pulse. (I am a little big, and am trying despretly to loose weight. I would post my weight but my scale does not seem to work it is always at least 20 pounds off and I never know what to think when my weight jumps 23 pounds in an hour or so from going to the doctors office, or stepping on a friends scale. So I think my next big purches will be a nice one. I want something that I can trust.
Well i'm getting back into a routine, today I started back at work full time, after around of week to move and nothing really unpacked I am back at it. Well not the unpacking part, but that will get done...eventualy. :) Bought Narnia today, still a great movie. Also my morning was spent watching one of Laura's boy's. He is still sick, my stomach is a little tender still, but I am good to go. Let's hope I can stay well, I am SO sick of being sick! LOL! And no, no one in that picture is me.
Uhhhh! I was right, I'm still sick! After being up and down all night running to the bathroom. I got a call from Laura, who's two boy's are also sick. Sicne they could not go to school they were dropped off here. So after creating a giant pile of blankets and pillows we mush have watched more then half a dozen movies and at least four different cartoons. The Chronicles of Narnia came out today and Laura rented it. It was just as good as the first time. In return Laura took my shift for the night. Gosh I am tired of throwing up.
Monica asked me to come watch Kaden for her while Vincin goes to work until she comes home. We had a fun couple of hours before I was relived and went home. Got some furnerture moved everything is in the proper place. Well sort of, the couch is on the right wall at least but still blocked by boxes. I think my stomach is still a little queezy.
Kaden was dropped off at my apt when Monica had to go to work and Laura was still at work. I took him to the pond to see the baby ducks then we went on a little walk before letting him play around my place until Laura called saying she was back. After dropping Kaden off I went out with Jessica, her newly graduated from the Marine Core Private First Class Cole. And his sister Lily. Are goal: Ikea, but we would never make it. A call from James ex-wife asking him to come grab their two kids for a haircut. So fitting in two more people into the tiny car without an air conditioner.
Another call and a cusin of Jess who is without a car and needed a car part brought us to a very full trailer. Not wanting to try and fit yet another person into the car we decided to all get out and sit in the driveway while James and the other guy went to get the part. We were there for hours and I will tell you for a fact that it was HOT!
We left for half a dozen clothes stores, HEB and the post office not getting back until dark. As I was going by Laura's place she asked me to come over for dinner. So I did, all I got down that day was the one turkey burger and I had trouble finishing that. Smells like trouble to me! Well I stayed there until almost midnight. Time for bed!
They called me in...why????? I just HAD to find my check book and go into the store! They grabbed me and dispite the stomach cramps, I agreed to come in at 6. At least I have energy. But of course this means invintory night, and I am once again going to miss Gray's Anatomy. Darn. But by this time next week I will have Tivo and won't miss it again hopefully. Think I am going to go lay in the pool to try to settle my stomach a little. I have a feeling it's going to be cold. (The water that is.)
12:30pm I am so sick! Gosh darn it! Well I guess I won't be getting much unpacking done today! But gosh I hate the boxes. It is noon and I just woke up. I have a migrain and I think that is due to the stress, sickness and other stuff. Uhhh...my stomach! But I need grocery's my debt card is not in yet, I have not found my checks, so I am going to need to run by the bank. But gosh my stomach is cramping, think I will just sit down for an hour before I go.
2:00pm I am angry and really seriosly feeling horrible. The beank so closed at 1pm. I got there sweating and dizzy at 1:30. So then I had to walk all the way back home. Think I am going to lay down.
8:00pm Just woke up. So my day consisted of being away for 3 hours, wow. Still feel nasty.
WELCOME HOME! LOL! And I did not even get to play an April Fools Day joke!!!
Was up all night, well until 5am. Then I woke up again at 7am, still need to finish packing. Instead I sat down on my bed and fell back asleep. It did not matter, when I woke at 10, with movers coming at 1, I did a rush job leaving my room pretty much trashed, trash wise, and my closet still full of boxes, I was ready by 1, dead tired, but ready. It did not matter however, the movers were lowed down when a high speed car chase went by them and they did not make it until 3:30pm. I think dad should have gotten a discount, especialy when they decided they needed gas while on our clock.
But everything got to the apartment. A medium one bedroom in the building next door to Laura's and Jessi's. Monica lives on the other side of the complex and now officialy half the cafe lives here.
It's weird, dad got sick and only got one load up the stairs to my apt. Mom brought in groceries and several things I still need.
Thank you mom and dad, for helping me out so much. I know for a fact I could not have done it without you.
Thank you God for helping me out in this. I made a promice and I intend to keep it.
We went to Wendys for an after moving party. But it was cut short as dad really was sick. So here I am my first night in my new apartment...alone for the first time.
No I did not leave it all to one day, but hell, you would think I did! I don't know if I want to scream, cry or jump off a building. Every time I turn around there is more...just when I think I am done there is more, more, MORE! Breath, just breath...I can do this. I CAN DO THIS! God would not give me more then I can handle.
After living with my parents for what my entire life??? I am 23 years old and I NEED to get out! I feel like the walls are closing in on me and my brothers are driving me insane. I feel like my parents are pusing me to leave soon, though they would never admit it. As said before I am 23 and I should have gotten out before. Well a month ago while helping a friend move I picked up a pamphlet and application for an apartment complex right across the street from work. (With no car that is a must at the moment.) Well I was approved, my application fee, deposit and first months rent is paid. I am freaking out now, this is actruly going to happen, with my lease signed for seven months I am in, and there is no turning back. Today is my last day at work for almost a week, tomarrow I finish packing. Not looking forward to tomarrow.
