After nearly 20 years, 4 kids, and TONS of frustration on my part, my husband has said that we should divorce.

Was he just having a bad day or did something really big happen? I mean after 20 years you wouldn't think someone would walk away unless they caught you in bed with someone else. Do you have a half dozen credit cards maxed out at $10,000 apiece that he just found out about or at least something like that? Gotta be more to the story than this... hell and I thought I was having a bad week. NA meetings are actually kind of fun, a lot better than a divorce anyway.

so ..

Man is dog's best friend, or something like that. I grew up with a dog in the house, and as soon as I was settled in I started having dogs myself. I have two of them now, they really know how to make you feel loved.

Sometimes keeping control is hard.

I think that's everyone. Anything worth having is usually a lot of work to get. Heck even just making it to the end of the day on a crappy job takes a lot of resolve.

Thanks Sherlock, I'm doing fine. I just like to color outside the lines a little too much.

I'm not going through withdrawal or anything like that, I've been clean for six months and really don't miss it much. I went to meetings for a month and decided it wasn't really helping me, if anything it made me think about dope more.

What really got me was this guy who came in straight from a rehab facility that he had been kicked out of... he was late to the meeting, he was still high AF, and I was sitting there thinking he should be sharing or something. I know everyone else knew he was messed up. He couldn't hold his eyes open and his nose was running the whole nine yards. That's the last time I went.

And really the first meeting I went to I probably looked a lot like him, in fact I know I did because two people came up to me after the meeting and said "you're still using, aren't you"? I guess that's what the place is for, moral support. It's not really their way or the highway, it's pretty much come on in and hang out and listen to people feel sorry for themselves. I'm not really good at that, but I guess that's what I'm doing here... maybe it will be different now that I have to go.

Oh I'll be excellent, it's not that big of a deal I just felt like ranting. I just think the place could improve, I felt like I was at a Baptist church not among friends with similar problems. Maybe I should start my own.

NFL Superbowl Poll II

Want me to send you a Rams jersey? Yeah, the Superbowl is the most watched event on television every year. Families gather around to watch the game and all the advertisers make special commercials just for the event. Even if you hate football it's fun to watch.

It's long story, let's just say I failed a field sobriety test and blew a 0.00% alcohol level. Blood tests ensued and when they came back it was bad. On a brighter note lots of rock stars like Tom Petty and Prince have died recently with not much more of what we doing in their system than I had. So I guess I feel kind of lucky.

But the whole "need to attend" thing is the problem. All this happened back in September and I flushed a couple hundred dollars worth of dope and went to meetings on my own. I've been off the hard stuff since then and really don't want to go back down that path.

The weird part is that going to these meetings and listening to people talk about doing dope kind of makes me miss it, if that makes any sense at all. Plus it doesn't make me feel bad like I guess it's supposed to. Everyone "shares" these horrible things they were doing to support their habits and how they were neglecting everyone in their lives and couldn't keep a job and were homeless etc... Not me. I'm kicking ***ass. I can stay out of my mind most of the time and still deal with reality better than most straight people. I just have a little trouble driving...

Saints are out. They kind of got screwed on a bad call too. It's okay though, because I picked the Rams.
