Our house could have been framed with a white pickett fence - and people that knew us would have thought "how appropriate"...<br /><br />I think the violence was just my way of getting back at the bullies that had plagued my childhood.Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08293544549577530857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129448121269394251.post-10520719108028873282009-04-23T16:42:00.000-05:002009-04-23T16:42:00.000-05:00I agree with Hal.

I'm not sure it flows well.<br /><br />Anyway, there were a couple of small turning points for me. I found myself on the receiving end one night when I was sober. I was almost raped in a pub toilet by two very drunk guys. I also had my stomach pumped in Spain on vacation - forgetting a whole day due to the juice.<br /><br />I think it's something that I grew out of really. Seeing an old school bully driving a beater and as miserable as sin also helped. I still have nightmares about him tho.Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08293544549577530857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6129448121269394251.post-59298086359800709492009-04-18T20:04:00.000-05:002009-04-18T20:04:00.000-05:00Speechless here.

There must have been one, because you don't strike me as that sort of person now. <br /><br />*waits patiently, chin in hand*Debbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09531125606268748793noreply@blogger.com
