They were divorced like within a year after having me and my brother.

Um, then my mother had a series of different boyfriends and then married this guy from Alabama who was much younger than her.

So it wasn't, wasn't much older than me.

I mean, he was obviously he was older.

He was an adult, but he was like completely immature.

And they were like, he beat the shit out of me all the time.

she, they got married when I was eight.

So I was eight to 18.

And then he was gone for a couple of years when he went to prison, but he went to prison for like stealing credit cards and like, you know, using stolen credit cards, like, like complete, like nincompoop behavior, like knucklehead.

And, um, it's, it's, it's crazy.

It took him as long as it did to get caught.

It took as long as it did for him to get caught.

And then, uh, so then he, he went to this prison called Billerica house of corrections.

And, um,

Slapped the shit out of me, yeah.

Like hit us with a belt.

Yeah, it was crazy.

And then I had a date.

He has a son with my mother.

So I have a stepbrother who's eight years younger.
