"Well yeah, this sucks!"

Written December 21, 2008

Well it is now probably about halfway through my second day here in the Main Jail facility and I have FULLY realized how very very good I had it at Musick. I have basically fought to stay asleep today for as long as I could. I only get up to eat breakfast and lunch.

I spoke briefly with my parents yesterday during the two hour period in which we are allowed to use the phones, and they said they were coming to visit me today. Naturally when I was called for my visit I thought I would find my old parents waiting for me. But instead I had the pleasant surprise of a visit from my longtime friend Krystle. So very nice.

She and I have been friends for a number of years and have been writing each other for awhile. She was planning on visiting me awhile back but her work schedule made it hard. So when she saw the address change on the blog and realized I had been moved she took the day off from work to come here and see me. She is like a really cool sister close in age. It was so good to see her. I told here in detail about the chain of events that brought me here to Main. And what it's like here as opposed to the farm. We talked about my family and friends that miss me. It was great. Plus it got me out of the cell for a little bit, since I slept through dayroom today. It was cool.

I only have about 29 days left here. Here with Rico, my detoxing cellmate, who is coming down off of Meth. I will talk about him more in later entries.

I am going to lay down now and read my book until last count, then go back to sleep. Tomorrow, if Rico goes to court, I will attempt a workout in the cell. If not, I will just do it on Tuesday.

Thank you Krystle for the visit, and if you put money on my books, thank you for that too. I am now going to check today off on my little calendar I made and go read.

Bye everyone.
