wow...just...wow

So..yeah. I found out that over the weekend my father hit someone on a bike while driving..and fled the scene. I don't know the details of the victim nor how badly they were injured..if at all. I'm going to assume that there was some injury because you can't get hit by a car and everything just be fine...and if there was anything serious I'm sure I would have heard about all of the details thus far. So..yeah...he had apparently warrants out for various possession charges including cocaine...my grandmother was told that there was drugs and drug paraphranalia(sp?) throughout the vehicle. I'm sure it was just pot and a few pipes...I'm hoping anyway..anything more serious and that's way no bueno. so apparently he is supposed to be arraigned today..at what time I don't know. I have no clue as to what sentencing might be...everything online says jail time if there is serious bodily injury, impairment or Death..but nothing for minor injuries...assuming that it's minor injuries. Of all the crappy things my dad is capable of..I can't see him leaving someone who is seriously injured on the side of the road. I've been surprised before..but I just can't help but think there is at least that much good and common sense in him.

So my dad's in jail...the major problem for me..is that my dad had aggreed to help me out this semester because I had so little bit in FInancial aid left because of the purchase of my Flute last Spring. So..I am really hoping that the stars will align in such a way that I will not have to drop out this semester and finish next fall(cause the last music class that I need is only offered this semester.....).

So I would greatly appreciate any prayers you could send my families way.
