Cast of Characters

If you run across a name in my blog, and can't figure out who I'm talking about, this list (a work in progress) might help. It should also help me keep track of what aliases I've given to which person.

Annie -- That's me. Actually my real name is...wait, I'm still into this whole anonymity thing...so, never mind.

Sheldon -- my husband

Randy -- my therapist. Yeah, he's one of those more casual and down to earth types who goes by his first name.

The two guys -- usually refers to my rapists. If not, the context should make that clear.

The old guy -- the older of the two rapists. I was raped by two neighbors, a 63 year old serial rapist and his nephew, who I'm sure had also raped multiple times. The old guy was staying with his son and nephew, who shared an apartment across from mine, for the summer. After my rape, I found out they had attempted to rape several other women in our building. I strongly believe they did rape one, if not two, other young women they met that summer.

Actually, I do know the rapists' names...but the weird thing is that I'm not entirely positive which name belonged to whom. Right now, I don't think either of them deserve names.

Damien -- my older brother and longterm sexual abuser
