Hello everyone, I just wanted to pop in a give a quick update.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH~!!!!! DAMMIT!!  I posted several paragraphs of this post, hit the wrong button, and my browser went to another page.  When I came back, all my text was gone!  DAMMIT!  

Okay, anyway.. starting over...

To recap, last summer I got arrested.  Spent a few weeks in jail, until my mom was able to bail me out.  I moved out of my apartment and back in with her over in another state.  I eventually plead guilty to a felony charage and my setencing will be February 16th.  I've never specified what exactly I was arrested for, and don't really want to on an open thread, if you're one of my older friends from the board if you msg me I might fill you in.  

Let's just say I feel crappy about it and leave it at that.

Anyway, since my last post several weeks ago, I had to move out of my mothers house and now live at a local inn.  The good news is that for the price I'm paying ($210 a week), it's a not a bad place.  I don't think I could have done better within this price range.  The bad news though is I'm currently living on a deficite.  I only work part time right now.  Luckily, I was able to save up some money before I had to move, but still... it's a bit worring.  

So, not sure what else to tell you.  Been okay, I guess.  I try not to think too heavily about the future, or what might happen one way or another.  I'm hoping to get parole, but gg

NOTE: For soem reason the browser doesn't want to stay with my cursor, it kept "jumping" back and forth between the last sentence I was typingand the top of the post, so I started a new one.)

To continue:  I'm hoping to get parole, but I don't know what will happen. 

Things have been tough at times.  It's difficult being in this place with no one really to talk to or open up with.  I wasn't exactly overflowing with R/L friends before, and now, being in a new place, I feel really alone.  Sometimes I just wish I could pass on, as I get the feeling that even if I don't end up in prison, my life is still never going to improve.

But, like I said, I'm trying to stay positive.  I appreciate the support you guys have giving me, just wish I couldn't gotten to know some of you better.

Anyway, not sure if I'll be able to post before my court date (or after) but I just wante dto say, "Hi!"  Hope everyone is doing okay!

BTM, good luck. I know you made a mistake, and I know I don't know you in real life, but to me you don't seem like the kind of person prisons were built to house. Hopefully you will get parole.

But on a more serious note, best o' luck to ya'.

Best of luck and good fortune. I agree, although I don't personally know you, you don't seem like the type of person who needs to be confined. I'm sending good vibes your way.

Well, try to look on the bright side. If you do end up having to go to jail, it won't be forever and there's a fair chance you'll get parole. Given that you seem to regret whatever it is that you did, well, who knows? You might be let off the hook.

     A wee bit of advice, from someone who's been there....if you wind up going away, never forget that it's not forever; the guys who allow the time to do them are the ones who don't do well upon release, and often come back.

     Trace and I will pray for you.

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

It will all work out.  You'll be surprised what a few years can bring.
