Bosom Buddies

When I was away at rehab I just happened to make several friends. Now I was told by many of the staff there that this was not a place to make friends but, seriously, who can you depend on when you are in this situation and even more who can you relate to. Yeah, I get the whole birds of a feather stick together. However, that does not mean that their actions will have me strung out if they should happen to slip up. I have slipped up one time since then and I paid for it. My mother found out. But, since then I have done nothing.

So my friends Kelly and Travis will be moving in with my parents and I until they can get on their feet. Since they have left they have been clean but have been hit with many cases of bad luck. Their car getting totaled, Kelly's mother not paying their rent while they were in rehab (little side note, Kelly gave her mother the rent money), and just not being able to make it financially. So I say to hell with the preconceived notion that former junkies cannot be friends. I think it is all a mind game.

So within the next two weeks I will have a full grown sister and brother who just happen to be boyfriend and girlfriend living with me. Yeah they really aren't sister and brother but I thought it was funny. After all I do reside in West Virginia so why not make jokes.
