		<description>@ Jessie:

Lol, thankies via the character remark. :) I don&#039;t try to be interesting, really- sometimes I think life would be much simpler if I were boring and led an eaqually boring life but not only is that not nearly as much fun... I doubt I&#039;d have the happiness I do if certain things didn&#039;t happen. I&#039;ll have to remember to ask you what your story was about, you&#039;ve got me curious.

Foster care is flawed. I&#039;ve been in it for years in several different departments in a handful of states at different stages in my life. I&#039;ve seen the good, the bad, and the unwritable. Alas, foster homes and foster care are no longer different these days. It&#039;s a long story/explanation, but in some ways it has greatly improved and in others... it&#039;s almost self defeating. You hear people talk of &#039;falling through the cracks&#039; when referring to kids who have a hell of a time in there but I believe those that fall through the cracks are actually the ones who don&#039;t have a single bad experience with the system. Alas, I&#039;m babbling. Anyways, thankies for all your lovely comments, they keeping me going when I need it the most.</description>

		<description>Get it all out!
You sound a lot like the character I tried to write in NaNoWriMo a couple of years ago but you are FAR more interesting.

Foster care seems to be such a flawed system.  Makes me think foster homes would be a MUCH better idea but maybe not?</description>
