Wow, aurelia. Glad it's secure I guess. How scary!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I've heard of that working the other way, where for some reason a 30yr decides to enroll as a high school student.
I thought that was just 21 Jump Street.
Timelies all!
Yay for kitties, Laura!
Haven't had a chance to post, but fingers crossed all day, Laura.
Yes Laura, been thinking of you all today.
OMG, Steph, you're right. Also Twilight, I suppose.
Home. The hearing was about 5 hours, felt more like 5 years. Nephew had been 18 for an entire 1-1/2 hours when the incident occured. He pled guilty to the various awful charges. Judge would not consider him being considered a juvenile offender or reducing required minimums for any of the various possible legal reasons. Potential sentence was 12.5 to 52 years. He gave him 15. Lawyer says with great behavior and time served about 10-1/2 years. He's been in prison the past couple years so he will be 30 when he gets out. It was a very hard day.
My bottom line. No matter what he will be a different man at 30 when he gets out of prison then he was on his 18th birthday. What kind of man that will be is really up to him. His parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends were there to support him and will be in the next decade. This chapter over. On to the next.
I do appreciate your kind support and love.

Sorry, Laura. What a hard day.
