Poor Micah, in the Hole again! I think that Micah may hold the record for the most time spent in Coconino County, and maybe even the record for the most time in the hole. The biggest problem is that people tend to think because he is just a kid they can just attack him, with a screw no less.
His celly came after him with a screw, which the guy has a few loose already anyway, and Micah was defending himself. What the heck? As Micah pointed out, in jail you cannot just walk away, there is no place to walk. If someone attacks you you have no choice but to let him beat you to a pulp, or defend yourself.
There will be a hearing on Wednesday to determine whose fault the fight was. There was one witness so Micah is planning on being out of the hole on Wed. The bad news is if he is found guilty he will be there 30 days, which will be until Dec. 26th. And the really bad news? This time in the hole he is not allowed anything. No writing stuff, no reading material, nada!
After we talked this morning when he called me for my birthday he said he was going to go back to sleep. I guess he will be sleeping from now until Wed. Let's all pray he gets out of the hole on Wed. I can't imagine him spending Christmas there, no good for him. He already said he feels like he's going a little crazy there after just four days. Yes it happened on Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving
When I told Micah we were not really doing anything for Thanksgiving this year her got very upset with me. He informed me that we better all go out somewhere and eat enough for us as well as him.
Happy Thanksgiving to all from Micah and family!

Poems
I received the last of Micah's notebook yesterday. It is all his poems that he has written up until last week. He wanted me to enter some of his poetry in some contests, but after reading about them I changed our mind.
Soon Micah will be out and I don't want to give the rights to his poetry to anyone. I am thinking that once he gets out and starts going all over the country giving his motivational talks, he will want the rights to all his writings.
For that reason I am going to put them together in a book and keep the rights to all his writings. I will post some samples here on his site, but not any complete ones, there are people who steal things on the internet.
After talking to Micah yesterday I went and checked airfare. Woo it is high right now. He was telling me that he can't wait to go to prison, in fact it would be the best Christmas present he could receive. He asked me if that was not the weirdest thing I had ever heard, someone that could not wait to go to prison!

Best Day Yet
Today Micah had his best day ever in Coconino County. Actually it wasn't exactly in the jail, but at the police station so maybe it does not count. At any rate they came to get him in the morning and took him outside. Yes you heard that right, outside. He got to walk all the 30 ft. to the police station.
When he got inside they had menus on the table! I am surprised he did not break down and cry, but he was manly about it and just giggled. The biggest problem was he could not decide what to order. His lawyer had to order his grilled chicken pita wrap for him.
The whole six hours he was being cross examined he was able to sit in a chair with a back! Yes even a back on it. He sat comfortably in a chair. And the bathrooms. Now there was true luxury for Micah, a full length mirror. He said he kept taking peeks at his abs the whole time he was in there.
After eating one of the lawyers asked for some of the shitty coffee. Micah piped up and asked if he could have some of the shitty coffee also. He took one drink and said that was the best shitty coffee he had ever tasted.
The frosting on the cake for the day came as they led him back to jail. They exited the police station right as the sun was setting. He said the sky was all pink and purple over the pine trees and he walked as slowly as he possibly could to take it in for a longer time. I thank God for the good day he gave Micah today, he deserved a nice day after 16 months!

Finally
I finally heard from Micah yesterday. I was so relieved to talk to him. He is still in lock down, which I was not happy to hear. That is surely the punishment of choice at Coconino county.

?
Has anyone seen or heard from Micah? I am concerned as I have not heard from him since last Wed. He was supposed to get out of lock down on Sat. and call me in the morning. Still not word. I am sure hoping he is not still in lockdown. If you have any word you can email me or just comment, thanks!
