I dont know how I'm gonna tell you, I can't play with you no more

Been feeling unwell the last few days and today woke up with a terrible headache.

Felt in a really low mood today for a while and brief thoughts of drinking entered my head, however there is no way I'm gonna drink and feel I am really starting to win on overcoming using booze as a recreational activity for alleviating boredom etc.

24 days without a drink and feeling strong, in the most part, about drinking not being an option, though I do have moments of sadness that I am not being able to go out and mix with girls/peers/revellers on Friday and saturday in town. Normal I suppose for a 23 year old male.

Anyway I am listening to my favourite band at the moment. The clue is in the title of the thread as I'm sure fellow muso's will no doubt know straight away. One of my favourite songs of theirs and I couldn't help thinking how apt that first line of the song is...

Peace and Love. x

I simply found different playmates and different playgrounds.

Moving on... moving forward in life.

The playground at my elementary school isn't fun anymore either so it all makes sense.

I'm so glad you're doing well, NeoMarxist, and it sounds like you're getting good perspective on your situation.

Hudstar,


Like Neo said "That's the Way"

I was a huge Led Zep fan in my younger years (I'm 43) I still like alot of the songs they put out way back when!
