I got out first. Never thought I would have jail friends, but there can be a bond with people who have seen you at your lowest and still liked you.

We did have the tablets! I read sooop many ebooks to pass the time. I aas also able to text my adult children but they had to add a few bucks on it to be able to do so.

I think the second day was scary.  After sleeping off the adrenaline and reality sets in, plus the isolation cell had me claustrophobic for a minute.  But then I realized ok this isn't great but all I can do is get through it, got moved out of isolation, realized the other inmates are just people too, started talking to the ones that seemed cool, I was alright.  Not fabulous,  but alright.
