Are you my long lost cousin?
I shudder at the thought...

...we shall till the soil together then m'dear.....
Perhaps he took it as a compliment? After all, dolphins are smart animals.......!Yeah imagine my surprise when I’m hearing this story 3rd hand that next Monday morning. Civilian analysts didn’t say that sort of thing about ranked Captains....I walked around on eggshells for a few days waiting for my career to end but apparently what everyone said was true. The next time I was face to face with that Captain he was friendly as he could be.....damn devil moonshine and crawfish....
Have a great sleep, Kurben.
I got to try to sleep a little. Tomorrow is, sad but true, another day.
Hello, everybody.
Ahhhhhh, the monkeys on ones back, the ever present monkeys on your back.
Today is exactly 13 months since I quit drinking, but in the last few weeks I developed another addiction - pills.
My back was acting up really bad, for a few days I couldn`t get out of bed without Milla helping me, it really hurt like a MF.
So, I went to the doctor, he examined me, said it`s some old injuries flaring up, yada-yada-yada and prescribed me percocet, 4 times a day. Yeah, it helped the pain, after a week I was almost completely Ok ( I am now ), but man, that shmitt is unbelievable addictive.
I didn`t think nothing of it popping 2 or 3 pills a day even when it didn`t hurt, I was like " what the hell, good prevention" and then I noticed sudden weight gain, even though I was doing my work out like I always do and didn`t change my diet and I also caught myself a few times thinking about if enough time has passed between two pills. Almost longing for them.
So, feck, I knew I was hooked.
I`m off them now, I had to do another cold turkey thingy, but man, for a week I was pretty messed up...can`t sleep properly, can`t eat, the shakes, the sweating...oh my God, that was a week from hell, I don`t think I had alcohol withdrawals as strong as this one.
I won in the end, but eff me if I`m gonna be taking anything stronger than Advil ever again. Maybe not even that, I have such an addictive personality that I would get hooked even on that.
If you are really not in any serious pain...don`t take the MF-in painkillers, it`s not worth it and it`s really hard to get off of them.
Other than that, we are good, as I hope you are as well, I`m working on my novel, it`s also a very harsh winter, minus 20 C almost all the time and it`s snowing every day, but I like that. Feels awesome to be writing while the weather is that bad, I feel like Paul Sheldon, minus his number 1 fan, of course.
Wishing you all super magical days, I`ll be dropping in here and there, I`m still around and love you all, as always.
Salute!

Sorry you had to go through that withdrawal but thankful you recognized what was happening and made the decision to stop taking the pills and didn't become another statistic of the addiction cycle. Be well!Hello, everybody.

I find it amazing that the doctor would prescribe oxycodone like that - people around Winnipeg (meaning the doctors) are very conservative when it comes to that stuff.Sorry you had to go through that withdrawal but thankful you recognized what was happening and made the decision to stop taking the pills and didn't become another statistic of the addiction cycle. Be well!
