LJ Idol season 10, Week 20: Open Topic

Don't do drugs, kids. Yeah, I know that's obvious. But prolonged use really kills your bain cells. My father is a perfect example. How that man is still alive astounds me. How he never ended up in jail boggles my mind. It defies all odds

Wow, that's a lot. If you need to talk or a healthy dose of empathy (we're trying to currently extricate my MiL from a bad situation in DE), I'm here for you.

Thanks. Luckily I don't have to deal with my father much, so once my brother's moved in this weekend and gets his stuff Tuesday, I won't have to talk to him until Christmas.

What a mess. I'm so sorry you're all going through this.

[my_name_is_jenn]

Yeah, life's a bit crazy at the moment. We've kind of just put blinders on and are barreling through the crazy and hoping it settles soon. Luckily, it should.

Jesus. I'm so sorry. I have a friend like this, though I haven't talked to him in years. I just couldn't deal with it. I'm lucky I had that option.

I only talk to my father on holidays and birthdays, and even then only briefly. We really don't talk to each other, and I am happy for it.

Ouch. That's rough for everyone involved :/ I am sorry to know this. *Hugs*

[my_name_is_jenn]

Yeah, it's not easy. Luckily, he lives nearly 1,000 miles from me, so we don't have to talk much. I'm good with that.

Thanks :)

My heart goes out to you.
