“I fine how about yourself?” Mr. Standfield replied.
“Great, thank you for asking. Please can you describe to me the events that occurred on November 21, 2012 and any events that lead up to that day please?”
“Sure doc but I can only remember certain things about that day, I mean it is all fuzzy and all.”
“Just tell me what ever you remember.”
“You mind if I lay on that long couch there and talk?”
“No Mr. Standfield, what ever makes you more comfortable. I am advised to tell you that what ever you tell me in here, will be confidential and will not be shared with any other person without your consent. So feel free to say anything that …show more content…
I would ask my dad if I could go play with the other kids and he would just say, “One day this old house is going to be yours and you should take care of it now rather than later.” Looking back on it now I realized it kind of taught me things like responsibility, dependability and knowing how to fix things.

If I am going to potentially go home with one of these guys, then I might as well leave with the best prospect don’t you think.” As she looks at me with those big blue eyes and smiles. I guess what she is saying is true but that would mean she wants to go home with me. How would she have determined that when she just walked in the door? I guess this is her hangout after work, makes sense how everyone including the bartender knows her. She asks if I have any other family or friends here?
