I suppose i might as well be "out" about it on here, since it's relatively non-public (i'm in the closet about this on Facebook)--
I had a bit of a drug problem, i got arrested for possession, and now i'm in Drug Court. (if you don't know what drug court is, it's basically a deferment program: if you satisfy all the requirements (going to so many 12-step meetings, attending various classes, not getting in any more trouble, etc, then the charges are dismissed.)
The judge, because he knows i want to write and because they think i have some talent or something to say or... something... --and i'm the first person ever he's ever required this of, as far as i know-- decided to require me to keep a journal, to get and keep me writing, which i have to hand up to him every time i have to go check in. Sometimes he'll read a page or two; sometimes he'll flip a little further than i thought or hoped he would....
