Ending up in jail..
Posted 04-26-2012 at 04:58 PM by txtqueen
So in my last blog maciesmom (hi maciesmom) said that if I were her daughter then the advice she would give me would be to leave the guy because I ended up with a record.
Color me baffled but what in the world have I been doing that would land me in jail with a record and getting into all sorts of trouble. I don't see how TG is a trouble maker and would get me into trouble. That was ONE incident, where no one broke the law, the law is just poorly written. (Did you know that if you are in your passenger seat in the dead of winter, sleeping it off, with the keys in the ignition to keep the heat going, you could get a DUI for that?) You don't have to be driving to get a DUI.
Anyways, I don't get how I am going to end up with a record though, especially when we aren't two people who do illegal things.
I work and he works, we spend all our free time together.
We go play disc golf for a few hours.
We go to the dog park for half the day.
We go over to his parents and spend time with his neice.
We go over to his sisters house.
We stay at home and watch tv, clean, play video games.
We'll take a walk around town with his dog, go get lunch and take it to the park.
Go to his apartments hot tub.
Its getting to be swim suit season and he and I are eating super healthy and talking about working out.
So I don't see how I am going to end up with a record because of him when we don't ever do anything to get in trouble for.
Every thrusday and friday I am off and his dad has his niece that day, those days we spend all day at the dog park and then some disc golf, up early and asleep early.
Monday I have off as well and we'll play disc golf that day or go to the dog park. He usually has off the same days I do.
He teaches me how to cook, shows me how to do things for my car, helps me learn how to budget my money.
Inspires me to be a better person and better myself with school and boosting my confidence level.
Goes grocery shopping with me and shows me how to get more for my money.
Lends me money when I need it, gives me gas for taking him to his parents. Buys me food if I am hungry.
He plans on getting into management and making more money, he one day wants to reopen a business and wants to own a house with some land and have some kids, get things like a trampoline, some 4-wheelers, wants to be able to go fishing and hiking and camping and spend a lot of time with family.
So someone please enlighten me on how I am going to get a record.
Or how he is a bad person.

Clearly you have a history of poor choices. You are now involved with another person who appears to make poor choices. You mentioned several tickets you can't afford, as well as someone potentially charging you with a felony. Just doing the math.Posted 04-26-2012 at 06:30 PM by maciesmom

And it was a crazy friend who was controlling me with the cell phone issue.
Making me pay more and more each month, telling me she would shut my phone off if I didn't pay the day she wanted it, which could be a week after I last paid or 4 days early.
If she got angry with me she'd threaten to shut my phone off. I once didn't want to hang out with her and told her I was busy doing something with TG and all hell broke loose and she threatened to shut my phone off.
I finally sold my phone and told her she and the cell phone plan could burn in hell and told her she was no longer demanding or getting any more money from me for anything.
She tried to have me charged with a felony for selling the phone *I* purchased and then sold and not paying her for the disconnect fee.
That had nothing to do with TG, the tickets have nothing to do with TG. Those are my fault nothing to do with him.
He tells me all the time to stop being a dumbass and speeding.Posted 04-26-2012 at 06:35 PM by txtqueen

Trust me. No one here is getting a felony or into anymore trouble.
Once TG is done with this he told me he wants to look into getting a car and finding an even better job because once he has a car he can look further away from where he lives.Posted 04-26-2012 at 06:49 PM by txtqueen

1. Why do you need someone to tell you "all the time" to "stop being a dumbass and speeding"? Why can't you just be told once?
2. You insist you are an adult - you should by now be able to stop being a dumbass and speeding all by yourself.
3. If you are an adult, please start acting like one. If you can't act like an adult, you won't be treated like one.Posted 04-26-2012 at 07:38 PM by Kobber

1. I don't need some but he tells me all the time to quit doing the stupid stuff I do like speeding, wasting money, he's like the angel/devil sitting on my shoulder, cept he's the angel, sometimes the devil...but I won't mention in what department that is in.Quote:Originally Posted by Kobber

2. **** happens.
Last speeding ticket I got was going 19 over but there was no speed limit sign up yet and I was going with the flow of traffic, then a week later there was a speed limit sign up and if that sign had been up when I got pulled over I would have only been going 9 over.

**** happens is when you drop a piece of bread on the floor and it lands butter side down.
Speeding is NOT **** happens. Repeated tickets are NOT **** happens.
(And all the rest about the sign is just your refusal to take responsibility for speeding and racking up tickets.)
And if you get enough tickets they won't hesitate to suspend your license. If you drive on a suspended license and get pulled over for speeding you CAN go to jail.
See how this works?
A little more responsibility and a little less **** happens would be a sign you are becoming an adult.Posted 05-02-2012 at 03:38 PM by DewDropInn

One I only owe $40 on and the other I haven't paid off yet but will start sending in small payments once I get settled and take a look at finances.Posted 05-02-2012 at 04:04 PM by txtqueen

You don't have the money to pay a $40 ticket and you think you have the money to pay $500/mo rent? You've been working this job since December, not paying rent to your mom, not paying a car payment and you had to use your grandmother's gas card. Where the heck does all your money go? How do you figure an "extra" $500 is going to magically appear every month? I'm baffled.Posted 05-02-2012 at 05:40 PM by maciesmom

So you have money for the alcohol you've been posting about drinking but not to pay your traffic tickets? Not a real good sign of your priorities in life.
And since when do people get to decide WHEN they start "making small payments" on their traffic tickets?
Maciesmom is spot on, BTW.Posted 05-02-2012 at 06:48 PM by DewDropInn

I make $663 every two weeks.Quote:Originally Posted by maciesmom

My portion of the rent is $300.Posted 05-02-2012 at 08:07 PM by txtqueen

Omg. $4 for a small pint of something isn't breaking the bank but we haven't even been drinking lately.Quote:Originally Posted by DewDropInn

Last time I drank was a glass of wine at his sisters house last month, which she gave us money to get because she wanted some.Posted 05-02-2012 at 08:09 PM by txtqueen

So you should have had at least $1200 saved up by now. 4 months x $300 "extra"....you keep avoiding answering where all the extra has been going when you basicallyhave no bills.Posted 05-02-2012 at 08:24 PM by maciesmom

I've said before stuff like eating out, ordering food at lunch, it adds up.Quote:Originally Posted by maciesmom

"It adds up."
Lol. So does not paying your speeding tickets. Priorities. Start thinking about them or the next time you get pulled over and they run your license you are going to be a VERY unhappy person.Posted 05-02-2012 at 08:52 PM by DewDropInn

Actually I have a police friend who checks for me.Quote:Originally Posted by DewDropInn

So let me get this straight. You've been working for approximately 4 months. Bringing home approx. $1200/mo. Your bills from what I can tell are your cell phone and car insurance. Let's say $200. You let your grandmother foot the bill for the car payment and the gas because you choose to spend your money on fast food "and stuff"? You have to make payments on speeding tickets because you have no money? Yet you've been whining about how you "can't afford to move out" And why are you giving rent money to a "troll" when you supposedly have to sneak in anyway? I hope you smarten up before your "trust fund" kicks in.Posted 05-02-2012 at 09:24 PM by maciesmom

The car is paid off.......and has been since day one. The money was from some bonds of mine that were sold.Quote:Originally Posted by maciesmom

And no she doesn't foot the bill for all the gas, I pay for my own gas majority of the time.Posted 05-02-2012 at 10:07 PM by txtqueen

So without Grandma you would be car-less and frequently gas-less.
Good thing ol' Granny's got a few coins or you would be warming a seat on the bus.
(And the bonds are because someone else did something. You didn't earn the money to buy them so that's another "thank you" to someone else for what you've been given.)Posted 05-03-2012 at 08:58 AM by DewDropInn
