Back In the House

Posted by James K on July 11, 2006, at 12:58:16

So I'd been out of the bin for several weeks. Economics plus modern America equals Me back here. Where I started.

Like always, I started making plans to cut back the meds. Have some drinks. See if the feel good part was back yet.

There was a place I could go and talk to people. People like me. Where people like me. A place where people like me like me. I got scared to go. They knew too much. When the room got rearranged and the cable was too short, the computer never got put back together.

Got a job. Just cutting the grass here at the complex. Didn't think you'd need too much qualifications to push a lawnmower. I like to do things the hard way. I figure I can get away doing things the hard way if I'm cheap and work hard.

Someone didn't like it. It's hard having secrets when you live in a gated community and ambulances show up at your door. I guess she figured it's okay to have me live here, but pushing a lawnmower in the Texas summer was just the last straw.

So I'm back in the house. Plugged in the computer. See the old place I used to go.

I wonder what happens next.

Maybe you'll see a rerun. Maybe you'll decide to go back on medications and stop drinking for good. Maybe you'll change the outcome by changing what you do...
There are lots of possibilities.

I do want to change up the script this time. I've taken the hurt of being attacked in a way out of line way better than I could have predicted. tomorrow I don't have to drink - nothing in the house right now. Had one self injury lapse, bad result, came out of the blue, but I'm not in that total state of mind.

I wanted someone perhaps to say what you said. Thank you ClearSkies.
