Nice Brandon. I know what inspired this educational lj entry.....your last AA meeting huh? I wonder what your addiction is? Hmmmm, I wonder who mine is?

truehrtdtxan April 4 2005, 19:34:42 UTC

it better be me baby.... nice entry brandon....deep thinker much?

byronic_thought April 5 2005, 05:10:08 UTC

yup. there should be more of me's in the world and i would be intellectually and philosophically satisfied. you'd think i'd be smart enough not to let my hoodlum cousin get me into so much shit.

AA is for people who want to quit or have been forced to attend. I don't fall into either category. Did you read my entry? it isn't who you are addicted to. it is emotion.

Did you copy paste that from something?
Stop drinking, it makes you feel shit. Alcohol also hightens emotions yah know. so it might just be your body is addicted to alcohol and you like how you feel when your drunk aka the sappiest human alive or the meanest depends on the mood your in b4. im about to call you.

byronic_thought April 5 2005, 05:12:33 UTC

and i'm sorry that the mood i am in before i drink rests entirely on your shoulders.

and i did not copy and paste.

you should have posted this last tuesday before my exam on higher order functions and the brain stem.
p.s. olfactory neurons terminate in the hypothalamus toooo which is why the sense of smell is the fastest way to generate an emotional response.

byronic_thought April 5 2005, 05:15:12 UTC

please show me up on my own journal by spelling hypothalamus right and expanding. we're so smart it kills us. thanks. haha. last tuesday it wouldn't have been as relevant. for me anyway, ms. 'i'm so smart i take exams on higher order functions.' ;p.

yourbestbetx April 5 2005, 14:56:37 UTC

shut up, you've been addicted for much more than a year. last tuesday, this monday, no difference! i only added that because you talked about it before, it was related, and i knew it. bam! you know i correct spelling at all costs too.

byronic_thought April 5 2005, 22:36:18 UTC

true, but there is a special relevance i'll tell you later. maybe i should talk about all this on joe's radio show. maybe i'm too scared. what you think?
