Good to see the gang’s all here. Finally got my startin’ fluid going, so that’s a good thing.

Went out for a very nice dinner last night. I’ve been feeling a little sorry for myself lately, and last night was no better. You know - the whole why can’t I enjoy a nice glass of wine with dinner, etc. type of crap. I’m better this morning. The truth is I just have to cowboy up and do what I know is best and right. It’s good for me and, honestly, every one around me that I care about and that cares about me.

Have a great day Marcheros!!

These are not to be confused with space zombies from planet X delta 9, who will attempt to suck out your brains with an eco friendly straw.
This must be it. Either space aliens or space zombies. Is there a space alien dance I should do? Do I need a straw?

Hello everyone, it is good to see everyone. I spent some time catching up....and smiled when I saw this thread is at number 72. That has to be some sort of record. I wish I were as expressive as you all are...might stop me from my natural inclination to seek alcohol’s best wingman....Isolation. I’m sorry to have been away.


Today’s mood:

Water washes over me
Pushing me further down
I keep trying to stay afloat
Afraid one day I’ll drown.
~~Mary Nagy
The writer was likely a functional alcoholic too.

I was promoted into management earlier this year and I think that’s when opportunistic addiction kicked in full gear. It’s like I’m trying to fail. WTH?

So today’s positive steps.....playing the Grateful Dead. Smile engaged. Slept well last night for the first time in a really long time. I’m here opening up. All alcohol out of house. Told everyone I quit and please leave me alone about it.

And seeing you guys is great. Thanks for leaving the lights on!

Now about these space zombies.....They can have my brain but I get a ride across the galaxy first! And I have questions...

Good to read your post LG. I know any sort of changes, even the positive ones (like my biggie- studying art, not insomuch as the art- but the hopes I have, eggs in one basket. My alcoholic dysfunctional default- to isolate, avoid life and anything to do with humans....


or space aliens. Is it not interesting that these technologically advanced aliens, only seem to appear to humans that live in very isolated places??? Helluva a long ways to come...and not at least get a nice coffee.

MITA- good perceptive thinking..see above. Aliens dancing?? Mulder never mentioned that in the very good expose documentary on the FBI- the X files. I had a thing for Scully when I was a silly young man.

a more even keel today....once I would have self medicated to stop crap feelings, whereas now I know just to sit with them and let time do it's oh-so-slow work.

Thinking.....our new story.....communicating with the space aliens.....striking a bargain.....they don't need our whole brains, they can just have the AVs. It will be awesome fun for them....a battle worthy of their alien skills....and while they happily play with the crazy bits, we shall be free I tell you, free....Av-less....forever.

But it won't be the end: it will be the beginning.

Good morning.

Hey, Lillian and Pelagic! Glad you guys are here.

My daughter is safely tucked away in her incredibly awesome apartment for the school year. It's her 3rd year, she's the baby, shouldn't it be easier....

Space aliens can have my AV and depression. And my procrastination. And my sugar addiction. And all of my fat cells. I think that's it for now.

Have a great day, guys!
