    Me, myself and getting sober

    Whatever happened to meeting someone and being overcome by an irresistible need to touch her? To everything that follows being just a matter of course, because every part of her is a joy to behold, and every sharp intake of her breath sends little bubbles of warmth up from your fingers straight to wherever in your brain it is that feels so fucking good?

    Yeah... sorry, off topic. Dogging=not bad.
    Its a very big park:H

        Is it me or is this getting a bit odd around here? I can't follow anything this morning and I am pretty sure I am sober. Maybe a bit too much caffeine.

        I am away on business next week so if you don't hear from me I did not drop off the earth.
        Thx!

Then I met a couple of people here (Billp, and all his other names, is bipolar) and I read up on what it really meant and I was/am pretty clear I've never experienced anything close to that.

          That is so lovely and wonderful about your birthday dinner. I'm so glad for you. And so, so, so thankful you have worked so hard and come so far. Rock on, birthday girl.

          What're you this time around? 29 again?
          Good idea.

          A friend or two tried to diagnose me as bipolar, or even schizophrenic. They used it as an excuse to deny the fact it was alcohol that was turning me into a different person - which also affected me on days when I didn't drink.

          I just decided it was primarily the booze, although there is some depression coming out a bit now but I've headed off to my old counsellor so we can nip it in the bud.
          I used the Sinclair Method to beat my alcoholic drinking.

          Drank within safe limits for almost 2 years

              Hi UK how are you, I do know a fair bit about mental illness from my own family and growing up with a schitzophrenic cousin who was a year younger than me and followed me around everywhere (god I hated her at times) until she got taken away at 13. I know my head shit was there before the drink, during the drink and after the drink. I also know Im not schitzophrenic, but do have some bipolar symptoms. Counselling is not going to sort this, even the wrong meds that Im on now are better than no meds.

              You will know yourself UK whats up with you and if it has been the booze doing it or not. I think a lot of people probably get some type of depression from drinking but I have seen peeps being ok after time off the drink and therapy, and it sounds like your one of them. I dont see you on here very often but from what I can make out you have been doing really well with nal, is that right.

                          Happy birthday, Space!! Sounds like you had a wonderful day. Even without any "dogging". Goodness, that phrase makes me giggle. Doesn't it make you happy when the weather cooperates with your plans?
                          Sorry I haven't been around. I have been and still am at home for my sister's wedding which was Saturday. And it went well. Depsite God's best efforts. When I arrived Friday, my family's house (where they were having the wedding) had no electricity and no water. And it was 100 degrees. I walked in to find my poor dad in tears. But it all worked out. Be back later....
                          Love ya, Space!
                          "Yet someday this will have an end
                          All choices made or choice resigned,
                          And in your face the literal eye
                          Trace little of your history,
                          Nor ever piece the tale entire
                          Of villages that had to burn
                          And playgrounds of the will destroyed
                          Before you could be safe from time
                          And gather in your brow and air
                          The stillness of antiquity."

                            hmmm. Something's out of place.
                            A whole day without Space?

                            I'd continue the poem, but I'm really quite lousy at that. Maybe LA can help.

                            What's going on? Where are you? Whatcha doing?

                              Something's out of place,
                              A whole day without Space?
                              I'd continue this poem,
                              But that wouldn't drag you from home.
                              So we'll just have to wait,
                              For a decline in the exchange rate,
                              And we can afford to take a plane
                              Then probably a train,
                              To come knocking on Space's door.

                              Where she can tell me face to face
                              That this poem was a bore.
                              But it's either this, or
                              Just waiting and wondering what happened to Space.

                                Not much to say really, nothing much is happening here with me today, unfortunately I drank too much on Sunday and spent monday in bad all day with a horrible hangover then yesterday just dont think I wanted to chat. But I have got a shiney new laptop so now Ive got to make lots of use of it.
