Snookie Lumps
Just Needed a Friend

1

Snooky Lumps, left hand girl, with a bend in it, the nutsiest part of every woman you've ever known.

2

She met Lotta Gue in prison when she got sentenced for stealing physicians' scripts.

Lotta Gue and Snookie Lumps were not Lesbians when they met, but spending time together in jail and developing a strong bond and safety with each other gave them the comfort to reveal their inner selves to each other. Eventually they would become carpet munchers. They called themselves the Donut Bumpers in prison.

3

Snookie Lumps' real name was Debbie DuBras. She was a very small-breasted woman who had had to endure two alcoholic step-fathers and an alcoholic mother. Her mother also had a history of severe depression. So Snookie Lumps wasn?t coming from the best gene pool.

4

He father was successful, but had developed a new life and a new family.

When she was fourteen, she started to run away from home - staying out all night, taking speed. Speed was her main drug of choice, and she chain smoked and was constantly drinking black coffee. Her nerves were on fire.

5

She had a brother named Gene, who started to get involved in selling drugs early and moved away from home.

6

At sixteen Snookie Lumps was put in a foster home with a family named McHenry. They had three children of their own, and three other foster children.

7

That's where Snookie Lumps met her husband Larry. She got pregnant. They got married. He was always robbing places. He got caught and went to jail.

8

After a while she started to hang out on the streets again, leaving her child Larry Jr. at home with her foster parents, who eventually would bring up Larry Jr.

9

Snookie was so wired and so rebellious and so uncontrollable, she never came home. She got arrested buying some coke. She had become a streetwalker, and now was shooting cocaine. This is where she met Lotta. They both needed somebody to trust.

10

Lotta Gue got out of jail after six months and went home to live with her parents. Her father had really hit rock bottom. He had been taking the anti-depressant Haldol, and a pill called Cogentin to make the side effects from the Haldol wear off. He wasn't taking the Haldol, he was just taking the Cogentin

11

He took Cogentin - three times the dosage, which made him feel that he was racing at four hundred miles an hour inside, but feeling motionless. A psychiatric zombie of his own making. This drove Lotta's mother to drink.

12

Now Lotta was living back at home. Her parents never mentioned the incident that put her in jail. As fucked up as they were, they still tried to be supportive and optimistic.

13

They were, until Snookie Lumps got out of jail and moved in with Lotta.

14

Lotta and Snookie would go out for a loaf of bread and come back eight hours later. They would hang around the streets of Lowell and hook. The main pick-up line they used standing on the corner was: "Goin' out? Wanna date?" Cars would drive around the loop until they finally stopped.

15

Twenty bucks for upstairs, forty bucks for downstairs. They'd work a couple of tricks, get up forty or fifty dollars, and cop some brain oil. (Brain oil is any drug that makes you feel better - of course all drugs make you feel better, or you wouldn't take them.)

16

The customers were called dates. Sometimes the customers would fall in love with Lotta, who had a more feminine side. Snookie was a bull dyke. She didn't pull the strings, but she had her fingers in the pie.

17

Sometimes they would talk about their dream date - a man who would let them live with him - he would buy their drugs, and they would occasionally service him. Like a sugar daddy. But most of the men fell in love with Lotta, and Snookie Lumps was always in the picture. They would never let on that they were lovers - this would threaten the date's security.

18

Now they were getting out of control. They never went home. They crashed at other people's houses. Sometimes they were really coke whores, living on the edge, a razor's edge, a fine line between insanity and sanity, no stops at the border. Just a clear clean run into oblivion. That way they could forget about their pain.

19

Snookie Lumps would think of her son, and want to be with him, but she was always fucked up, and her son made Lotta feel a little insecure.

20

One night they were crashing at a dealer's apartment. They had been up for over four days. They took some ludes and they were out like a light. A friend of the dealer's was there too. He slit his wrists vertically and horizontally up both arms three times. He would have died, but the neighbors heard him banging his head against the wall. The cops kicked the door open, saw the suicide attempt, and called an ambulance. Nobody in the house had heard him. The first person who woke up when the cops broke down the door was the dealer, who dumped his stash of coke into a bucket of acid.

21

The cops knew what was going on. They woke up Lotta and Snookie and ran them for warrants. Snookie had a warrant issued by her parole officer for skipping a probation appointment. Snookie Lumps went to jail, and you know where Lotta went? To heroin and crime.

22

Lotta Gue would soon end up in Framingham Women's Prison too.
