It was the week after Christmas...

and it snowed 14 inches. This was 2006. I looked out my bedroom window and saw the mess. I couldn't move my car, we are not equipped to deal with that kind of snowfall. So I thought all of Albuquerque looked that bad and the city might as well shut down. My apartment was next to a liquor store. I walked to the store and bought 6 bottles of Jack Daniels. You can guess what I did for the next 7 days. Whenever I would wake up, I would look out the window and see that there were still 14 inches of snow. I would close the drapes and go back to the bottle. I never called anyone or turned on the news. I just drank myself to sleep watching "Friends" box sets.

Turns out, my apartment complex was just too cheap to plow and Albuquerque had been running just fine without me all week. I think that's when I realized. My bottom still took another year, but that is the only vivid memory I have from my drunk years.

Just wanted to share that story. I've been posting a lot today...

Sounds familiar but without the snow.

John,

Everything's cool. It's a beautiful day here and I have work to do in the yard. I guess I'm just getting sick of being unemployed. I have some interviews later this week and it looks like I'm going to be in a national commercial for Obama. Everytime I renounce the arts and acting, something always comes along.

I'm just posting alot today. Support, I guess. Thanks.
