There is a limit to how much conversation two people can sustain when they go out for the first time. The ideal first date should last between two and two <a href="http://www.blinddateuncensored.net/" rel="nofollow">blind date uncensored</a> and a half hours, and should give both of you the opportunity to talk in a pleasant and relatively quiet atmosphere; a walk through a beautiful park followed by a good cup of coffee and dessert is great.

I ask this question often, so many addicts don't get the help they need because of lack of knowldege of addiction....

Wow - small world!! Palmdale is an absolute nightmare. I continue to live in California and Palmdale still isn't too far from me. I have friends and family there and still travel there as well. It's funny, but you didn't grow up too far from where I did! All the things you mentioned, I remember very, very well. Growing up, our house was the local tweaker hangout. And embarrassing as it was, I wouldn't let my little friends come over to our house because our house smelled like cat piss 24/7. Those that did come over, rarely came back. I guess I should state for the record that I never became addicted to speed. Everyone in my life was though. My parents and every last friend I had. I lived the life as one of them - even staying up for days with them and dealing with those that almost died in front of me. I did try it - on my 18th birthday I said I would do it once just to see what it was that everyone loved so much about meth. I think because I hated what it did to everyone I knew so much, I wouldn't let it's effect take hold. I actually fell asleep after doing a line. I woke up the next day and went on a blind date where I began crying for no apparent reason and left the poor guy sitting alone at Sizzler (lol). I guess I got to experience the emotional roller coaster of coming down, but not the actual high. Oh well, it was best that way. I never did it again. I write this blog because even though I was not an addict, I lived the life of one. My life could have easily taken the same road as those around me. I could have let the obstacles of growing up poor as dirt with drugs around every corner overcome me, but I didn't. Thanks for stopping by yankee! Wow – small world!!

I grew up on E Ave Q2 and 22nd St East. Our hometown is an anachronism; full of the broken homes of laid off aerospace workers and parole violators. Half the kids that I grew up with were the offspring of outlaw bikers and felons. 90% of the time their cupboards were bare and their houses reeked of cat piss. One or more parents/step parents were always involved in some stage of the judicial process. Dope is the only constant in an environment like that. It's the only structure that some kids ever have growing up in the windy Antelope Valley. I am really happy for you that you were able to kick the sh1t. I am a veteran of the AV wasteland. I have since been around the world. There is so much more to life than ditching school in the desert, hiding from cops, and drinking coffee at IHOP during school hours. Isn't there?
