Gm fk.

Guess what day it is?
Yesterday plus 1 for us,
Welcome Saturday.

And this one is a little better than the one before.

For me, I need to put on rose-colored rear-view glasses to catch a glimpse of the little jr back in the mists of time who maybe kinda sorta used to do only a little.

It ebbed and flowed over the years, but even during the occasional brief period of drought, for jr there is no denying the sea level was rising, rising.

If so, Mister Dee, you are King of the Musical U-Name-It game.

I could google it, but I'll just wait and see for now.

I just watched a link someone posted with Duff talking about when his pancreas exploded.
Most people look at guys like that and say man they have it all.
When in reality a lot of them die alone.
That to me is the saddest thing ever.

All the money in the world and could be out doing anything they want and choose to just stay wasted and secluded.

I did try to turn it into a haiku to post in your thread but poetry is completely lost on me.

Ok, what earworm turns when you read the last two words above?

[Keep on] rising, rising.

Never say never.
A little concentration
and fishkiller sings.

V. cool you started this thread, but said haiku thread welcomes all wordsmiths, however many or few syllables their (recovery-related) sentiment may call for.

Fantastic album. One of the best of all time. Unfortunately music is a major trigger for me so I haven't heard it in a long time.

Sorry to hear that, I love music.
I know what you nean though there are certain songs that take me back to a bad time in my life.

On the flip side, I watched a show on KISS the other day and they played a bunch of their old stuff from when I was a kid. Before I was a drunk.
It really took me back to a good place in my life.

I'm currently 52 years old and I remember listening to KISS Destroyer on my "record player" in 8th grade. Some of the best times of my life.

I'd listen to it and then go check my traps.

Yep 50yo and those young care free days were the best.

Think I might get a few old KISS cds and take myself back to those days when needed.
