My dad is good, we are close. Strange thing, the whole time I was living there in Straight, my dad was shagging, the cocktail waitress at his hotel he stayed at, he is a pilot. My mother knew and Straight had instructed them to not discuss their problems with me, that I needed to just focus on me and my drug problem. So the whole family thing was complete bullshit. I didn't find all this out until, I had left on third phase. A friend of the family said to me, sorry to hear about your folks. I was like, what are you talking about? That's when he told me. I had never felt so betrayed in my life. I flipped my shit out. Needless to say, that being the fourth time I copped out, I didn't have to go back, that was the only plus. The biggest fucking plus in the whole wide world....thanks dad for shagging that waitress.....no really, it caused much pain. It took my poor mother 10 years to get over it.
