Sorry that you're going through all that, FT - but I'm with ssbledsoe on this one.
I told him to bail a couple of years ago.

Getting ready to head off for the afternoon. My friend wants to drive her new car today, so as much as I don’t like it, I’m letting her drive.

She’s a bad driver, huh? If not, relax and enjoy!

I’m a very lucky man in a very strong marriage. The difficulties that come with stepkids(especially dope fiends)I couldn’t imagine.

FT, I hope you and your son are able to heal from all of this. It is difficult to have someone in the family in active addiction. Watching someone self implode in real time is one of the saddest things ever. Your wife has been trying to find a way to save her for a long time now but the only person that can pull her out of this is herself. She is searching for something and simultaneously running from something. She is a lost soul in a world that doesnt give a #@#@#@#@. Your wife is probably so afraid the next call is the one telling her that her daughter is dead. Its really hard to think of anything else. Its paralyzing. As someone who has lived this with a close family member and them ultimately succumbing to their addiction, I deeply feel for you and your family. You are stuck in a storm that never seems to end. We are here to support you.

We order out on Saturdays. The first place we picked is closed due their family vacation. I hope they are having tbe best time. The 2nd place we decided in couldn't take our order because they got an influx of orders. I love that for them. 3rd place was able to take our order. Very excired to try my chicken bacon ranch sandwich.

Moldy's Millions coming soon - a reality TV show where we observe a guy sorting out a closet full of cards for an hour a day over the span of six years, eight months, and seventeen days.

Can it be worse than the old picture of (I think it was) Boo's closet?

I wish it was only a closet. Then I could stick it back in and shut the door.

The show was a bit better today, though far from great. Through 2 days, I am at about the sales of last weekend's show, which was a disaster. I understand that I come up here to buy, but even that has been underwhelming in terms of finding reasonably priced unopened stuff. At this point I am trying (somewhat unsuccessfully) to buy my way to profits. I am planning to leave my stuff in my body bag for a while tomorrow to see if I can find some deals.

We happened unknowingly into a mall show. 95% Pokemon. I didn’t look at much, we were there for dress shirts.

Smurfs was a cute movie. We went to Chili’s after the movie and then her daughter had a free item from Sweet Frog so we stopped there. Chili’s was ok, they were packed but we still had great service. It took a long time to get our food, but it gave the three of us time to talk.

Have had it for years. It is almost 10 feet long. Big enough for most squatches.

No NN, he’s talking about the picture I took of my one closest. P77 made a “Hoarding buried alive” pic of it. I think I gave Glen some free Poopnini points after he saw them.
