I was wrong. I'm not going to get gouged on the taillight.
I'm going to lose entire fucking body PARTS.

Yeah. I've come up recently with what I call the 5-year plan. I'm 35. If, by the time I'm 40, I have not managed to attain a state with which I am reasonably satisfied - that is, solvent independence - that's it, I'm done. I'm checking out. Permanently. I know exactly how I'll do it, too. I've fucking had enough of this shit. It just keeps cycling back, over and over and I've had it. EVERY goddamn time I make a little headway, something hits me in the face and puts me even further behind than I was. Enough's enough. The older I get, the more of a burden I'm going to be, and I don't care to sink that low. I'm tired of this failure. I'm just tired.
(And no, I'm not going to do anything right away. I've got 5 years.)
i fail at life,
