Bummed out

I can't stop thinking about this woman I saw at the Blazer game while I was working on Thursday.
No not like that, shut up.

She was being talked to by arena staff and the police, she was very upset. She had a kid with her, a toddler.

I found out eventually what was going on, apparently she was drunk as hell, being aggressive with people, throwing crap around, that sort of thing, the cops eventually arrested her.

It wasn't even halftime yet and I watched her crying as authority figures informed her that she was going to spend at least a couple hours downtown on a work nigh, and behind her, her kid, a boy who couldn't have been more than four and who very well may have been at his first game ever, sat at a table holding an inflatable tube thing they give you to wave around during the game and I wondered what that kids life is like, I want to think this was an isolated incident, but I suspect that most single mothers who don't have a drinking problem don't go out with their kid and get trashed even once. Why does she do it? What happened to her to make even a couple hours at a game with her child something she can't face sober?

It is unbearably depressing, I'm going to bed.
