Had a good successful spider hunt out on the balcony last night. Went out after dark and found 3 pretty good sized ones.

Kilt 'em dead.

Won't be seeing those 3 spiders again.

almost decided to give sober living a try... almost
idea lasted 7 days, decent attempt for a rookie just getting called up from the minors
last mondays meeting the holy rollers told me, " keep coming back!!!"
just might go back tomorrow evening and let them know Jesus' will was a sunday drunk, who am I to defy faith

recovery through religion isnt a method I think I can buy into.
recovery through tripping balls and touching god or extreme terrifying loss of ego I feel might be statistically equivalent

This is unarguably the greatest photo of all time. John Cusack, Johnny Depp, and Hunter S. Thompson with a blow up doll.

: Doesn't count as a celebrity sausagefest if there's a blow-up doll involved.

Person who played In the Air Tonight at bar last night - also fucking awesome. Old man who bought Cami a drink and that I had one of the most retardedly profound conversations I can recently remember with - also awesome. You know who I like a lot and would do anything for - that guy. He should be posting here.

When I first got clean and sober in 1990, I went to 12 step meetings. I was able to make it work because I was just that desperate and I decided I had to make it work. They were staying sober, I had failed every way imaginable - I couldn't see any other chance to have a life. I didn't focus on ways they needed to change; I needed to look at myself.

And I did. I made it work. I compromised and tolerated and forgave. I started a life.



Now when I relapsed and tried to get back on track in the late 90's, I found the 12 step meetings very difficult to take. The reasons are complex but anyway, I feel very fortunate that a secular group had started up in my area. They are out there. Lifering, Rational Recovery, SOS. But they're not absolutely everywhere by any stretch. I don't understand why they aren't more popular and growing.

Anyway, I got lucky with that.
