00:00 I don't know why you're doing this, but it's not because you love me.
00:06 By the time I really started having memories as a kid, my mom was working at the Red Dog.
00:13 Bare bones, man, that place was a sin.
00:16 God bless it.
00:17 How much has your mom told you, really?
00:20 I don't know.
00:22 Paisies and bottoms came off at the same time, and I thought, "What a money-making machine."
00:34 That's what you call business.
00:39 She turned me on when she danced to that.
00:41 Every time I hear that song, all I can see is...
00:44 Don't get me wrong.
00:45 I tried everything.
00:46 I mean, you know, you partied back then, you know?
00:49 Dancing all the time.
00:52 Literally.
00:53 There was a whole lot of power in dancing, but I can't imagine doing it sober.

01:08 alcohol, et cetera, that I did.
01:10 We were using Dilaudid and heroin and all this stuff that I couldn't kick.
01:14 Got pregnant, didn't care.
01:16 Did all that through the whole pregnancy.
01:18 I thought, "I will make a way.
01:22 I will make a way."
01:24 Everybody gets raised differently, and some people still turn out all right, some people
01:27 don't.
01:28 So you can't really blame your parents too much, right?
