My boyfriend got high, roughed me up, stole my car and passed out while driving over to Magic 7 liquor store. Luckily, he pulled over in front of a red curb at V.O.E. school and fell asleep with the engine running and didn’t run over anybody.
Not so lucky for me, the cops arrested him and towed my Mustang. Now I have to come up with some 200 bucks to get my car back. My mom is done helping me, my baby-daddy is AWOL and my boyfriend is broke, of course.
I’m going to lose my job because I can’t get DTH. The baby needs food and diapers and my check is not coming until the 15th. What can I do to turn this mess around?
Messed Up in V.O.E.
Dear Messed Up,
Before I give you heck and what for, I want to salute you for choosing to experience the miracle of life. God bless you both.
But by “my check,” I presume you’re referring to your child’s government assistance check, which, apparently, you take pretty much for granted as an entitlement for not having planned parenthood very well, if at all. I just finished reading this month’s Sheriff’s Log here in the Alpine Mountaineer and I can’t help but realize that you and your boyfriend have starring roles in the cast of characters. According to the log, no one driving around high in Crestline has a driver’s license and everybody has drug paraphernalia somewhere. (Day No. 91 of sobriety, I’m in bed by 9 o’clock and missing all the fun.)
I’m speculating, but one less snake tattoo on your thighs and you might have some cash available. Start today by getting your priorities straightened up. You’ve got a little one that loves you blindly and unconditionally. Don’t let that little person down.
By the time you read this, hopefully you’ve gotten some help; your Mustang is again at your service, and the boyfriend got held up on warrants as long as my arm and is locked up in county jail, never to be seen again.
Sidney
