Short but sweet... and sober.
Hello everyone!
I haven't posted in quite a while. I've been living the heck out of life.
I'm EIGHT months sober
I bought a new car!
I got the love of my life back <3
I've lost 70 lbs!
and I am the happiest I've been in my entire life.
I never in a million years thought that I could be sober.. But here I am.
Life is amazing.
I'm scattered lol
I don't have much to say right now but I'll post later.
LOVE you GUYS.

So nice to hear from you!
I have a story to share, happy ending don't worry. I was going to link to the original at Nature, but can't find it. I need to share this with someone else here who has an employment problem.
There are these two guys in uniform arguing, only they aren't really guys--more like large insects. They are arguing about a woman (human).
"She just can't do it. I'm not putting my career on the line for a specimen, and that's final!" said the Captain, Fozz.
Nerk, the other, was responsible for the situation: a split second decision, one of those times you just do it and figure it out later. Man, this had turned into a mess.
Their spaceship was visiting earth to collect marine species, and of course according to the Prime Directive, not interfere with the humans. They were dropping towards the middle of the ocean at night, far from any inhabited island.
But Zerk, who was operating the specimen collector, detected two humans in a primitive flying machine about to crash. His only thought was that this would be a good way to get some fresh human specimens--they were going to die anyway. But only one of them died...
Zerk looked towards the human woman with the equivalent of a sad expression. "I really tried. You know, I hear they have an excellent basket weaving program on Mars--it's overseen by religious spiritualists from Uranus."
The human burst into tears, but managed to choke out between sobs: "You are all so stupid! You know I can be such a better pilot than any of you, with my real brain and opposable thumbs!"
Zerk replied, with a soothing tone: "I'll continue searching the employment data base. I love you and will never give up trying, Miss Earhart."

This is what I sought. Things like cars can come and go. Relationships are difficult to deal with and sometimes they come and go.
Peace of mind: Priceless!
