So about a month ago, while I was dating this guy for like 3 weeks (just long enough for me to figure out he was a manipulative asshole), we went out one night to Walmart and I asked if I could drive just for kicks since I hadn't driven in forever (due to my license being revoked). He said sure, we pull out, leave, and are literally driving down Lake Mead for the 45 seconds it takes to get from my place to the grocery store when BAM....flashing lights behind us.
Long story short, I got fucking lucky that night because they didn't arrest me, but I did get a traffic citation. The original court date for this to be handled was on Monday. However, I went down to the Regional Justice Center on Monday and at the traffic citation help window the teller looked up my case and informed me that due to the nature of the offense (driving on a revoked license), it requires a mandatory hearing before a judge. So I'm kind of freaking out right now and getting more nervous by the second because I just have this image in my head that they're gonna arrest me on the spot for something or if I'm not able to pay the full fine fee right on the spot. The last 2 times I went to jail I was on G or high and just wanted to lay down so I didn't really give a shit where I was. If I go to jail while in recovery....something is VERY wrong with this whole picture.
Other than that, stuff has continued to be quiet in all other areas, social life included. Now that I've figured out that I'd rather be alone than be surrounded by or associating with people I can't trust, it's been very quiet around here. Calm, peaceful....but at the same time boring. On the plus side, it's giving me ample time to spend hour after hour in front of my computer screens piecing together this new business and what I'm trying to build. I still have no fucking clue what the "right" way to do this is, so I'm just learning as I go. That's how I learn best anyways....hands on kinda thing.
Anyway, got a bunch of shit to do before it's time to leave for court.
Stay tuned.....
