Can I ask you more about this tomorrow?
That's fine. Unscrew the top of your head, put your brain in a jar full of brandy. It'll be waiting for you tomorrow. Rest your weary head, sweet Cass. Lay your weary head down in the Hive-lap, and we'll pet your hair and you can rest.
PCPCPCPCPCPCPCPCPCPC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm so glad you're home!
ETA: You didn't bring a wife home, right?
That would be the theory. And the methadone isn't all that great for you either.
I wrote a short story about 15 years ago where the relationship/morphine metaphor was there. Crappy story but there were a few good passages. I should find it. God knows I could make them work now.
Random weirdness before I shut down for the night... Watched some edutainment show on crime the other day. Might have been the Masterminds series. And they had Arizona bank robbers. I spent the whole show waiting to see my exGF's dad on the tapes. This relates only in that he robbed many many banks to pay for a heroin habit before being caught and then dying soon after of lung cancer. He wasn't on the show, it was a gang from a few years earlier. But it was surreal to watch. And reminded me of a very strange time in my life.

Yeah, I'm going to do this.
I think my last post was TMOtherPeople'sI but I am leaving it for tonight at least.
P-C! Welcome back!
Hugs and ~ma to all that need it.
In a quiet sort of way, I had a very nice evening. We went to Target to spend a couple of stray gift cards, and enjoyed being out of the house with the three of us together--it happens suprisingly rarely. When we got home I had one of those rare effortless writing sessions and whipped out five pages in an hour and a half. And I think they're pretty decent pages, too.
Bedtime now. Choir tomorrow, which means waking up Too Darn Early.

I love your tag, by the way. I read that book years ago, and that line has always stuck with me.

Well, funny stor--
Just kidding.
Also, who wants to explain the letter tags?
You must be patient, little one, and all will be clear.
Some day.
((((Cass))))
I'm sorry I wasn't here earlier, but I add my part to the hive-mind's wish for your getting through this, and recovery. Never feel you can't bring us a need to be understood, or listened to.
P-C!! Welcome home!
I'm a little concerned. My Early Show is scheduled from 8-10AM on Monday. They're showing a local morning show from 7-8. Is it a 2 hour show and I'll get the whole thing? Or are they chopping the first hour, in which case I might miss Deb? Arghh. Stoopid local station.
