Cell Change

10/8/2008

 
Yesterday I was ordered to move to a different cell, but it's in the same building where I've been living for the past several years, which is D-North...
I'm now upstairs on the second floor. My new cell is located in the corner of the tier where I'm sandwiched between two other men, each of them on either side of me. I've known both of them for a long time, and we get along okay.

However, this portion of the tier forms into a "V" shape. As a result, there's not a lot of privacy between us. In fact, as to the man who's on my left side, his door is located about five feet directly in front of mine. This means that our cells, which have open bars in the front of them, face each other. Therefore he and I could see each other whenever we use the toilets. My other neighbor has his door only a few feet to my right. It's definitely not a comfortable arrangement for the three of us.

Furthermore, yesterday's move came as a surprise because the cell I went to had been unoccupied for a few months. Its radiator wasn't working. So the entire unit had to be pulled out from the wall by the maintenance crew and eventually replaced. The cell was dirty, too. Whoever lived there before me didn't make much of an effort to keep his living space clean. Therefore I've been scrubbing the walls and floor. I also disinfected the sink and toilet along with the wall locker that's bolted to one of the walls. Plus I've got to finish unpacking. It's a lot of work.

D.B.
