I think I need to play the lottery. Just got a call from Richmond PD to schedule my background interview.
Whatever you do, be honest. They'll ask you if you've ever done drugs or anything like that before and if you have, tell them you have. Now if you were a full on meth head, you might want to rethink that, but I think for the most part, they expect most people to have "tried things out" so-to-speak. Heavy drinking is an issue as well. I'm sure you know most of that though, but just thought I'd throw that out there.
