We’re All Gonna Be OK When This Is Over

May 9

Tyler came back this evening, so all is back to normal.  They’re keeping Rueben for a while cause he tried to hang himself for a cigarette (?!?).  This foolish place … I got myself sunburned back and front, I think that should turn into a tan.  So maybe, I’ll come out of here looking like an Indian … three more weeks and I’m outta here. Yabba-dabba-doo!

Everything was ok today except for church.  They made us watch a god movie which nearly drove me foolish.  I had to get up and ask to leave … Rueben is still in the hole.  The narcs were out here tonight, maybe to talk to him.  He’s got a really big mouth.  I won’t be surprised if he gets himself killed when he gets out of here …

Tyler had an interview for his pre-sentence report today.  I think he’s a good chance of getting a lighter sentence if he plays up his addiction.  I’d like to see him get control of that cause he’s a pretty good guy.  We’re all gonna be ok when this is over.
