TSH's Totally Random Rambling Spot
Yeah, I gotta start that diet too... as soon as I finish off this ice cream
What a pain. My sister's computer is getting senile so she's had to borrow mine. Not really a big deal except she and the 'rents don't know about my little field trip through the hell that is drug addiction. So... every time I leave my computer I have to clear the browsing history so she doesn't trip over SR. And since I'm here, like, all the time it's about the first thing that comes up when you start typing in the address bar.
I know, I know. If only all my problems were so complicated.
I've considered telling them, and come to the conclusion that it's not a good idea. Any time my parents hear drug/alcohol stories on the TV or whatever, they make an immediate negative comment about the user. Geez... I mean, if they only knew, right? But then the comments would be directed at me instead and I can't handle it. At least not yet. Maybe one day when it's behind me and I'm more comfortable in my sobriety I will tell them. And if that never happens... ok.

Except for the fact that I hate having to hide things, I'm fine with that
It's strange that you mention this because my mother is a christian hardliner and one of her children is an active drug user (my brother) and she knows (he's told her) that he has no issues regarding her knowledge of him using his dope. Parents NEED to understand that drug use is much different than it was when they confronted (if they even did) it in their youth. They're adults, they can handle it, especially when the child in question is pursuing recovery. With that said, you're not my brother, and I you've told us how weird your parents are.

Ah, Whittier. Whittier College is a Quaker school; I thought about going there. Glad I didn't though. I don't think L.A. is my style... no large city is.
Yeah LA really isn't my style, I hate the smog, traffic, crime, etc. The only benefit to living here, imo, is the weather. I tend to like small big cities, if that makes any sense; spent 6 years in San Francisco and 2 in Barcelona.
