Anyway, I bonded myself out of jail, and I, you know, my parents had taken my car because I got pulled over going like 120 miles an hour. With dope and guns in the car, too. Never got caught for that. I just remember that. Had that girl from Florida in the car with me, though. Anyway, they'd taken my car and sold it.

After I get arrested for that, you know, I'm banned from going to my parents' house. I've got an order of no contact with my parents, my brother, and my brother's friend. And I somehow convinced a car dealership to sell me a vehicle and finance it. A truck. It was a 98 GMC 4x4. And I convinced an apartment complex to lease me an apartment, a nice one. I had no income at all.

21 years old. And of course, I had no way of paying for this apartment, so the clock was ticking. And I'm still drinking like a fish. I end up meeting this guy named Rod, I think was his name, who did gutter cleaning in the apartments, and he offered me a job. Then he tried to pay me in meth, which was weird, but I took it anyway.

And so now I'm addicted to meth, squatting in an apartment with a vehicle I'm not paying for. You know, a year prior, I had been at Fort Benning trying to become an infantryman, and a year prior to that, I was in college kicking ass. And now I'm squatting and addicted to meth and a raging alcohol. Oh, and I'm Adam Bond. It went south so fast, or it felt like it did.

It's going south much faster as we get more into this. Somehow I even had internet in this apartment, and I somehow had a computer in this apartment. I don't remember how I got these things, but I had them, and I logged into, you remember AOL Instant Messenger?

No, same time frame, but it was a different girl. Okay. Me and this girl, her name's Erin. You know, we've known each other since we were 12. I went to the same church. She actually wrote me letters when I was locked up in rehab in California, in Utah. She'd stayed in touch with my mom and had just been kind of like a constant positive influence over the years.
