I know you are making good money playing poker now, but I feel for your situation as far as the job search goes. I know someone who has a prior and is having an incredibly difficult time finding a job for a college grad. The only advice I can offer is concentrate on small companies who might not think to perform a background check.
I can't believe your girlfriend stuck by you through prison, but then broke it off during house arrest. I guess it must have been too difficult seeing you every day, but not being able to enjoy the relationship as it had been.

well, the issue with the girlfriend was that even when I was out and on house arrest, I wasn't back to myself. I'm well adjusted to all of it now, but the whole thing did a real brain [censored] on me at the time. It probably was at least 4 months before I felt somewhat normal again and a year until I was fully normalized. My brain was crushed and I didn't think straight. She was 20 and shouldn't have to put up with [censored] like that. She eventually got tired of middle of the night calls and my weakness. I think she made a poor choice, but I understand it. It took me a long time to become the 'old me.'
