Wow, that is just horrible. For both, but especially for the child. I hope she manages to stay away from him. Glad that Addy doesn't have to be around that!
Laurie, the fact that she is being so proactive. That is a good sign for her. Hopefully the courts take care of this.
Hi people!![]()
Andrea, that looks yummy!
Just watched the shuttle launch on ustream. I'm such a nerd, it gets to me everytime, and the tears well up! I just find it so awesomely-mind-blowingly-amazing.
Got tons to do today. We head down south on Sunday for the Firefighter Olympics, can you say beach and DLR???!!! So exciting.Then tomorrow I have this thing called the Great Urban Race in San Francisco - it's like the Amazing Race! Teams of 2, but my girlfriend and I are partnering up with 2 other teams. I have butterflies! It's way out of my normal comfort zone.
Ah! I just glanced down at my ticker...23 days till I leave for DLR??!?! What in the world happened to all that time? I feel like the last time I looked it said 50+ days!
Wow. I am super excited but kinda sad....it's my last fun thing I have planned for the summer. After this I get serious with my job search.![]()
I just submitted my job application for my first 'grown up' job. It's a merchandising coordinator position with Live Nation. The requirements and stuff sound perfect for me right now, so I thought I would give it a shot! Not going to stress over it though, I really am not expecting anything yet. But it would be nice to get a call back![]()
I just found out that Addy's bio mom was assaulted by her boyfriend last night!!! I'm just sick about it. He's the father to Addy's half sister, who's 3. He came home drunk (and he's on probation & no supposed to be doing that), started a fight with her & then while she was laying on the bed with the sleeping 3 yr old......punched her in the face. Luckily the neighbor heard the screaming & called the police. The 3 yr old woke up & was freaking out, as was Addy's mom...........makes me so mad that he did that. He's in jail with no bail, as he had an outstanding warrant from his last county of residence.
I advised her to get legal help in obtaining a restraining order & full custody. She just got cleared with children's services & I'm afraid this will bring them back into the picture.....so sad! She's really straightened out her life, but was having a hard time letting the 3yr old's dad go......now she seems to be looking at things differently.
Would appreciate prayers for her & the 3 yr old!!
That is horrible Laurie. I will definitely keep them in my prayers.
Sometimes I really don't understand how some people can be so awful. Especially when there is a child involved.
Hi All!!
Laurie, that is horrible. They are in my prayers. What a sad, sad situation.
That's just horribleI'll be keeping them in my thoughts.
Sorry I missed these while I was replying to Andreas......(at least I think that's what happened) Thank you both......alcohol can make some people very ugly....and that's the case here. He should NEVER drink.....just a bad situation all the way around.
Thank you.....I hope she's getting on the right track & can stick with it.....she needs to do so, otherwise she could jeopardize losing her daughter.
The one day I didnt log on and everyone blows up the thread.

Laurie.....hope everything is okay. That is so terrible to hear. I dont understand why people do such awful things sometimes.
I am busy packing away...I leave Monday!

Hey!!
Just got back from seeing Horrible Bosses! Such a funny movie! One of the funnier ones I've seen in a while. Probably comparable to the first Hangover for me. Kevin Spacey plays an awesome "horrible boss"! I recommend this movie to anyone who likes comedies!![]()
I love him too. He played an awesome Lex Luthor in Superman Returns as well. And he is great in Seven. He is good in everything.
Yes! Usual Suspects was good! Haven't seen that other one though. Now I want to do a Kevin Spacey marathon! We've had Tom Cruise and Nicolas Cage marathons recently. Every now and then we like to pick an actor we love and watch a few of their movies. It's fun.
