| Well, it's over Just had court today. Got sentenced to probation, 40 hours of community service, and a drug education class. Got a deferred judgement, though, so no record. The alternative was a short jail sentence, a small fine, a 6 month driver's liscense suspension and a criminal record. Jail and a fine don't bother me too much, but the suspension and the record would be a huge pain in the ass, far more so than quitting weed for a few months and finding someone to fake my community service for me. Court sucked. The judge gave me a lecture on how smoking weed isn't a victimless crime, because the weed could have come from violent criminals, and could have passed through the hands of a ten year old. Took alot of effort not to shout at the guy that even if what he was saying was true, this is a direct result OF THE FACT THAT POT IS ILLEGAL. The only good thing is that when I called the probation office I was assigned to, their first available meeting was no less than three weeks from today! Since I haven't smoked for a few weeks anyway, that's plenty of time to clean out. Than I'll just tell them that weed is the devil and I haven't touched it since I got arrested, and I could be off probation in as little as two months. Overall, a huge pain in the ass. But if I didn't have nice parents willing to help out, it could have been alot worse.

| Man, it sounds like you didn't make out too bad afterall. Community Service is a joke, at least it was whenever I had it. I was mandated 8 hours when I was 11 for stealing a cell phone, heh. All I did was sit at a recycling plant and seperate plastic. Good thing you got away without a record. How badly will this reflect on school as opposed to the alternative?

But only if you're serious about adopting the vulture. |
