I admit I’m currently doing a piss poor not great job at winding the clocks & pulling the chains. You probably know I missed my first Court Date with Mr. Mantle bc I got messed up by the clocks. The Judge was Very Upset & that mistake is On Me! Although Mom & Dad I think Total Honesty will create a superior relationship for us & so I’ll tell you I was Using at the time & would’ve slept through the clocks anyway. Mom please don’t cry I know Using is Very Bad but it helps with my headaches & I know people don’t believe me bc of my Stupid History but the headaches are terrible & sometimes I can’t see & can’t talk & swear I can feel my brains melt down my throat. It tastes like burnt pancakes.

If I get clean Mom & Dad will you come back? Mom I’m cutting down on my swear words as you can see. Dad I told you I’m learning to fix Pieces. You don’t have to answer right away just think about it ok?

I was going through your closets bc I don’t have shit all much else to do & I found the old Scrapbook Mom made of me. I don’t know why it was buried so deep but don’t worry I wiped off the dust & grime. It has my baby pictures & a piece of my Blankie & report cards that say I’m Kind & a Peacemaker & all the stars I got for spelling words right & a picture of me as the Cowardly Lion & then So Many football stories. I felt Very Proud. There was also the article about how I saved the Fullerton kid which is another reminder I’m Kind & a Peacemaker. I’d text you photos of the Scrapbook except my contacts got wiped when the cops confiscated my phone & that is On Me. But if you want I can mail the Scrapbook so you can remember how Proud you were of me in the past.

You’re probably thinking hey if Robbie can write a letter this long why didn’t he write better papers for school but let me remind you it’s Very Different when you’re writing an essay for Mr. Toppen about The Man Who Corrupted Hadleyburg vs. when you’re writing a Personal Letter from your Heart. I know I should stop but I want to tell you although it made me Very Sad to be LEFT BEHIND I understand why you did it.
