Waiting

Today is Thursday here at Lake Butler. My roommate who came from Lancaster C.I. with me (and who’s also going to work release) left this morning. From what he said, he’s going to a work release somewhere way down south. He left on his third day here. I hope the work release I go to will come and get me soon.

There’s one more person here from Lancaster that I know and he arrived here a week before me. If he doesn’t leave tomorrow, he’ll have been here two weeks. I hope it doesn’t take me that long to go. I know two weeks isn’t that long, but in here it feels like forever.

Now I’m in a two-man cell all by myself with people walking bay my cell who have life sentences. Of course, I talk to some of them, but when you talk to somebody with so much time, you’re never really sure what to say.

Well hopefully I’ll leave soon. At least everybody seems to get along with me.
