Opie gone

Well, my time with Opie in the dorm has come to an end, at least temporarily. His move to cell block (segregation) today was pretty unexpected. He had a disciplinary case about a week ago for having a dry erase marker (we used it to draw maps for role playing games) and he received a fifteen days commissary and recreation restriction. Under the old warden, all rec restrictions were housed in cell block, but I haven't seen any get moved back there since the new warden arrived in January. Supposedly, the rule changed to only cell or property restrictions being moved. With only rec and commissary, Opie shouldn't have been moved.

The strange thing is that we have two other people in the dorm who have restrictions who weren't moved. One of them even has cell restriction. The way things are run here makes little sense at all. Sometimes I think they try different ways of doing things just to assert power, even if it makes things confusing for them and especially if it makes things harder on us.

Now Opie will be in cell block for two weeks before he gets moved again. Maybe he'll be back in here, but probably not.
