Insanity: My life, My country, My own head.

madush69's willingness to eat lunch and drive me around, I was able to apply for that job at the pack and ship place by where Whole Foods used to be. Apparently, there is a Trader Joe's there now. The guy didn't seem too keen on talking with me, but I'm going to call back tomorrow and follow up with him. I also went to my first therapy session at this new place. We mostly talked about confidentiality and how this place isn't going to be nearly as terrible as i thought. Just a lot of crap to deal with and a lot of hoops to jump thru. My therapist is the lady who runs the program aparently and she seems pretty on the level. I do have to start going to the meetings with addicts once a week. I don't really know how I'm going to swing that transportation-wise. I certainly don't want to be taking the bus to these crappy meetings and back home, but maybe there'll be chicks there I can bum rides from. Anyway, I can go back on the 10th of Feb to talk about meds. They say I don't have to take any meds I don't want to, and that there policy precludes them from giving me anything physically addictive. So at least I won't be trading in my weed habit for some kind of addictive pill habit.
As for the other sadness in the world, I am wearing black today out of sadness and protest. For those who havent' heard yet, Bush said (among other things): "All who live in tyranny and hopelessness can know: The United States will not ignore your oppression or excuse your oppressors. When you stand for your liberty, we will stand with you." I find that rather odd, since I live in the United States. Someone should tell that W that I don't have a job or any income at all and it's making me feel very oppressed. Please also tell him that his drug policies are oppressive and ineffective. I dont' think he fully understands the irony of what he actually said. Plus, I hate him and all he stands for. And the fact that he goes on and on about liberty and freedom while supporting the biggest rollback in civil rights we've ever expereinced is just appalling and awful. And of course, government and religion don't go together...I just can't say that often enough.
On to more pleasant topics, LOST was great last night. I was so satisfied with the story between Michael and Walt. How sad though...and I'm really nervous about this whole dynamic with Locke and Boone. I was just saying last night, it's gonna be fucking Lord of the Flies 'round ther come sweeps! Lord of the Flies with fucking Polar Bears, I mean. Although, it is possible that we only think they are polar bears because they are white. Perhaps this adorable Michigan black bear pic will shed some light on that issue. Black bears are my favorite of all bears, and are the only bears that you might actually survive a close encounter with in the wild. Neat, eh?

I really like the pic
Re: I really like the pic
I just realized, I haven't seen you in forever. You need to come by some Saturday when I'm having guests. We have such fun, you know.
Re: I really like the pic
Let me know when a fun Saturday is approaching and I'll see if I can participate in the good times.:)
Have a great Friday.

I'm with ya. The drug policy project is one of the few people who get a yearly membership from me because they actually are trying to get the damned laws changed.
