Looking for a leftist opinion/critique

Fuck, it's been so long since I've updated on here, and the last few months I think I've been looking for something of note to write about. Well, I know I got something now ( Read more... )

I can't believe you. Posting about how much alcohol you can consume with a user pic that says "The liver is evil, it must be punish", writing comments on MY journal whilst probably intoxicated about I posted that I'm not supposed consumer liquor and have a liver disease? AND, I can only get a rating of lush? Umm... sarcastic emoticon here!

Yeah, I still drink. I tried stopping, but I simply couldn't fall asleep. Now that I know that it's a pretty harmless syndrome/disease, I'll keep up with the alcohol, but maybe at lesser rate.

Because I'm lazy, especially with writing, I'll try to respond to all four of your comments at once.

About the liver crap, I've been diagnosed so many other things that I mostly find them interesting rather than concerning. Yeah, it could be a conversation point, because I'll lightly talk about all of my silly to odd disorders.

It is nicer to have some that doc CAN actually test for and give answers to, rather than the usual the "Gee, we'll try a bunch of very powerful drugs, just case one of them might have beneficial side effects", and giving vague recommendations, like more sleep or something, while you can't sleep at all.

The business thing would be cool, but the money aspect, all I can say is fuck! I've gotten a crash course in economics and see that you really can't so shit unless you've already have lots of money at your disposal. The whole 'money makes money' is way too true here.

The thing is, if by some miracle I was somehow presented with the option of being a mental health counsellor or owning the fish store right now, I really don't know what I'd pick.

Thanks for all the comments. It's funny how you you've never met the person, and only know them through internet text, but actually care about them as if they were a friend who lived just down the street.

I've got more time now, so I should post more. If I don't, feel free to kick my ass in gear!

Well, what can I say, Im from alabama, the state that excels in the whole "do as i say, not as i do" thing. but i actually drink a lot less than i used to nowadays. i guess it seems like a drink a lot because i always like telling stories of the unseemly predicaments i tend to get myself in when i do. XD and in my defense, i was actually sober while commenting. ive learned my lesson (several times over actually) on drunk eljaying.

I do the same things with using silly remarks about my health issues for conversation. it tends to put people a little more at ease about it, especially if its something they have no experience dealing with.

the statement about needing money to make money is too true, unfortunately. bleh.

being a mental health consellour would be great. the field really needs people who understand it and are patient enough to deal with it and who really actually care. its hard to find people like that. i could never do it. i just aint cut out for it.

it is weird when you meet (through the inet) people like that. it makes me smile though. a simple pleasure in life indeed.

consider your ass kicked in gear good sir. it has been far too long since you updated.

i hope you have a great christmas (or whatever it is you celebrate) and a good new year as well.

Ok, I just updated/ranted. My ass is a little tender, but should be ready for another kicking in the near future.

Merry christmas/seasons greetings/family ritual/whatever you want to call it!!
