It's been a couple years since I have been into adding friends on here and I see it hasn't gotten any easier! Maybe you have to confirm my request. I got one from you but can't. Not a big deal when I see its worked out ill hit you up.

You need to protect your cheddar, kick the scripts (just weed man, why is that so hard), and find a good woman. And stop feeling so damn sorry for yourself with all them poor bastards starving over in Somalia.

Sorry excuse for a degenerate if you ask me

invested 150,000.00 of it. right away pretty much.

fell off the wagon.

28. credit card. dirty hustling abilities. drinking. went to vegas twice. drugs. perc 30's. cocaine. drinking. drinking. drugs. gambling.

not wise.

now ... i'm 30. i do not like the lifestyle that i have created. i liked it a lot better when it was simple. after a high like that there is obv a depression price to pay when you crash. sucks. i hate the way i feel. i hate the things i do. it makes me hate the person that i am.

only answer.

is the worst answer for a guy like me. NO NOTHING.no gambling, no drinking, no drugs, no booking, no dealing, no fucking nothing. get your fucking headout of your ass. be a man. be honest. go to aa. get sober.

 

 

Whoa Whoa Whoa i dont see the need to give up fucking

I drank 4 cans of beer during the football game last night and I puked 2 hours after my 4th beer was gone. Normal? I'd pretty much call myself a box. How the fuck does your liver handle all that shit? Fellas want to come over for beer and pizza all the time and I'm the only Melvin who's drinking a Coca Cola with my Pizza.....tastes good. Skoal feels even better on a full belly.....relaxing.  In any event, best wishes to you

Dropping the perc 30s should be your top priority IMO.

I was a very heavy drinker for 20 years.  I don't miss the booze but I will often dream that I have pockets filled with xanaxes and percs.  I haven't taken pills in years but the little fuckers are SOOO addictive that I still dream about taking them, weird.
