Long morning. Got a call this morning from my friends sister. He is in jail again and has been for a week. During that time he has apparently signed his dog over to his hated ex for some reason and I have yet to be able to talk to him to figure that out. His house is also in foreclosure now I found after I got into his place to get some info for his sister since she lives out of state. So now we have to move all of his stuff out next weekend. Stressful day so far to say the least. I feel bad for him a little but he has dug this whole with drugs and alcohol on his own. Still going to try and be there for him though.




Whom is this said individual?

We've got an individual in our family whom appears to be doing much worse than your friend.

What would you guys do if your 14 year old daughter was:

1) cutting herself (nssi)
2) stealing leather jackets, shoes, etc from target
3) stealing 6 pack of beers from harris teeter on multiple occasions
4) drinking
5) smoking weed
6) stole a shirt from Sears and got caught
7) not only getting drunk, but getting drunk at 7am before school


?!?!

I told Jeremy and he said he would send her to boot camp.

Yeah it's a shame.

I've been thinking about what I would do if I were her father.


I feel like a 'teen whisperer' because she was telling me all of these things she has been doing. I did some research on the 'cutting' or 'non suicidal self injury'. I asked her if there is anything that she wished she had in her life. After talking with her I've determined that she doesn't feel good about her appearance. I think she wants different hair color and different eye color.

Eric that looks good. The only thing I would change is to work on making the spacing between the other 3 pictures even. In photoshop when I create something like this I will set up movable grid lines first. Then you can snap the image into the size area you want and trim it with the crop too just in that area. If you send me the 3 pics I can take a couple screen shots of what I am talking about.

Oh, I saw a chrome Charger the other day (after the meet). I was going to SouthPark and saw a new Charger that had a chrome wrap on it, along with some G rims . It was hideous.

She's doing all of that just because of her hair and eye color!?!?!?! She can get hair dye and there are colored contacts. I would think there are more deep rooted issues than just those physical things.

She told you those things because she's either desperate for attention, is trying to impress you, or she's asking for help and doesn't know any other way to ask.

Send her to the behavior health place off Randolph rd, my sister ended up going there after she dated this douchebag and messed her life up, she's definitely a different person for the most part.

Anyway, I was driving to work on 485 and I start to hear metal scraping...found out my rusted old muffler fell off. I guess it's for the best and it really doesn't both me but I'm looking into a new full exhaust

haha. we saw a chrome benz at the metropolitan the day after the meet. It looked pretty good. Chrome cars definitely catch peoples attention regardless of what type of car it is.

Yeah there is a lot more going on for sure. But I think if she changes her appearance maybe she will start acting different. Her mother originally told her she isn't allowed to change the color of her hair.

Thanks for the suggestion Bryan. We are going to look it up. I have to pick her up tomorrow and watch her all day. It's really interesting to talk to her and find out how bad these teens are behaving in general haha.

I saw your post earlier about the muffler. Time for an exhaust. Parts must be very inexpensive for that car and would be a dream to buy mods for I bet.

And to be honest she doesnt even really need to be there long. My sister was there for 3 days and then transferred to greensboro for a week. This isnt to punish anyone but its for her own safety.

And yeah where the pipe after the cat comes into the muffler just separated because of a 3 in rust hole and inside the muffler itself and can hear parts just tumbling around

True or False:

There is a strong correlation between Jason's girlfriend living in NC and Jason not driving down to the usual locations for thirsty Thursdays.
