No news is not necessarily good news. Especially when you're waiting for the other shoe to drop. Where do we find the Ignorant Slut, Queen of Unreality, today? Has she docilely agreed to enter an in-patient drug rehab facility, the best her insurance - thoughtfully provided by her ex, no doubt - will allow? Does that mean she'll get to swap lies with Lindsay Lohan and Rob Lowe? Next step, mentions by Perez Hilton! Wouldn't that be fun?
Not really. Whatever else we want or don't want, everyone wants to see the IS coping again. So, much rides on what happens right now. Maybe. Maybe only if you're a linear thinker, as I am. She is a fabulist. Always has been. It is entirely possible she will convince all the medical/psych personnel that she's got the thing knocked, that those four ODs were only an accident and absolutely will never happen again. That of course she's capable of detoxing by herself, while taking care of the boys. And it'll all be downhill from there.
The kids have been protecting her for quite awhile, it now appears. There is no doubt that they know how to do that and will continue, if that's their situation. The IS has her family so buffaloed that they would probably sink back into their fearful lassitude. Court proceedings are probably the only answer, but not a good one.
Sigh.
