Thanks Becky.
You know it's strange. I feel like my entire life, truly, my life in its total and complete entirety, has been navigated vis a vis substance abuse. From cradle (or in my case, fetus) to grave.
The only way I could gain some sort of control of, of an out of control violent roller coaster, was to let go of the safety bar and get flung out of the car.
And, If I somehow manage to survive, I'll be the one, the sole survivor, who laid this bastard to rest once and for all.
Hey Cow, you wanna really tick off the old man ? Get sober.
Love u Cow.
PS - ((((Robby))). "Start by admitting, from cradle to tomb, it isn't that long a stay, life is a cabaret old chum, only a cabaret, old chum, and I love a Cabaret !" MWAH.
