Think again.

I was thinking I would update this blog more, but that obviously isn't happening at the moment. A little update on my life, I have decided that searching for a job this week wouldn't lead anywhere because I'm leaving next week for Florida. I don't want to get a call for an interview and be on the other side of the country. Maybe that's my way of procrastinating, but that's what I do.

I have my first story today. It is not a happy one. I'm not going to give any names, obviously. If you think you've got it bad, check this out.

A friend of mine does drugs and smokes weed. This friend has a girlfriend. This girlfriend is pregnant. This girlfriend STILL smokes weed, even with the baby. This girlfriend STILL does drugs, even with the baby. This girlfriend DOES NOT have a job. This friend DOES have a job (minimum wage). This girlfriend takes all of this friend's money and spends it on drugs and weed. This friend and his girlfriend are being evicted from their home due to lack of payments, which they would have if it weren't for their addictions. This friend steals food from his job in order to feed his girlfriend. This friend's dad, who has been in jail for some time, can only be released on parole if he stays with family. This friend is the only family he has in this area. This friend's dad cannot be around children. So this friend's baby (and by default, his girlfriend) would not be able to stay with him. He now has to choose between his father and his unborn child. This baby will not have a normal life.

If you think you've got it bad...

Think again.
