Shift Work

There was a huge stomp or heavy dropped object just above me as I signed in to Blogger just now. It must have awakened Kootch, as she made a potty visit soon after. I take it this sort of thing indicates extreme rage on the part of the stalkers. They often do this in response to things I do or things I say down here. These outbursts appear to be spontaneous and uncontrollable. They don't appear to understand that I don't give a shit about their rage. I suppose their behavior serves the purpose of 'communication.' They want to communicate their emotional state to me. Bizarre.

Stomping as a form of communication began in the early '90s after I had revealed in my drog that I knew the identity of the head stalker. They would stomp the floor above me when acts of violence were being shown on tv. A favorite tactic was to do this while I replayed my daily tape of the Today Show. This went on for years. I called this behavior 'Very Subtle Death Threats,' or VSDTs. They were the kind of death threats a lawyer would issue: you get the message but you can't prove it. This form of VSDT stopped with the gassing attacks. The gassing attack was more than a threat, it was an actual assault. Stomping during violence on tv gave way to wall-banging when I coughed during a gassing attack. Even clearing my throat would and still does produce a 'demonstration' of some sort from above.

So there has been a progression, an evolution, in their behavior. 'Escalation' might be a better word. They have moved beyond imagination into action. And I should mention that this is a 24-7 behavior. Somebody is always awake up there to do gassing, stomping, etc. I think they work in shifts.
