okay, i have to rant about something that really doesn't matter, and isn't positive, but its not something i've often let myself rant about.

there's this girl. and i hate her. i didn't used to hate her; we used to be good friends and i thought i liked her a lot. but she became a sort of half-ass clone of me. and there is nothing more frustrating ( Read more... )

1. i brush my teeth for a very long time. i think there's probably some sort of psychological connection there that i don't quite understand... once i get started, i just want to brush, and brush, and brush ( Read more... )

1) i had my court date yesterday. it went about as i expected. everything ended up costing a total of $820. a lot cheaper than my husband's, but still expensive. i have my provisional license now, which allows me to drive from 6 a.m. - 8 p.m. on monday - wednesday, 6 a.m. - 9 p.m. thursday - friday, and 9 a.m. - 9 p.m. saturday and sunday. and i ( Read more... )

i guess i'm a little frustrated tonight. we had a non-productive day; we often do, when C doesn't work. the weather didn't permit him to today. after being completely bored for awhile, he caved and decided to get drunk.

he hasn't been getting really DRUNK drunk a lot lately; he says he wants to drink only "socially" and not at home, and he's been ( Read more... )

so i had my first therapy session today. i like the therapist i chose; she's got a sense of humor and she's very perceptive. even though it was only my first session, she was quick to pick up on certain ways i put things - certain words i used - things i don't notice myself, very often ( Read more... )

this post will be a short one because i need to go get ready for my first therapy appointment. i'm nervous about it, but i also am excited. i think i could get more out of therapy at this point in my life than ever before.

we had company last night for dinner - italian food. and the hubby bought a few bottles of red wine to go with dinner. now, the couple we had over is pregnant. so she didn't drink. but he ( Read more... )

One man I know talks in meetings about returning to drinking after three years of continuous sobriety. He decided to "conduct a little experiment with controlled drinking" and bought a bottle of Scotch. He had a drink. Nothing "bad" happened - he didn't die right then and there or fly into a rage or go mad - so he had another. And then another. At ( Read more... )

He has three arrows at his disposal. He shoots the first one and misses by a yard. He aims better with the second arrow but still misses by a foot. With full concentration ( Read more... )

sorry to post like crazy today. i'm feeling an urge to drink at the moment and my husband is napping - i figured posting is a good thing to do. it's silly where the urge came from - we had snow today, and a friend on facebook made a comment about how she's snowed in and has 4 bottles of wine and snack food and is having a movie marathon with a ( Read more... )
