I won't say they're pigs, because that's an insult to pigs.

I like wine, and beer, and alcohol, but I really have never understood the appeal of getting trashed. Have been maybe three times in my life, but actually the third time it was such good vodka that while I drank damn near 3/4 of a liter I had no hangover. I was in St. Petersburg, Russia, and was with friends; we went for a walk afterward so maybe the combination of good vodka, coldish weather (it was October) and exercise helped.

Anyway, I digress.

How are you, gray?

I'm in awe of my sister, her family and her community. It's been a month today since Joel's boat capsized, yet people keep coming with cooked meals and support. The last of the five had a memorial service today.

if people who actually see themselves when they're drunk ever feel shame, you know?

Enough shame to think to themselves, "Geez...I wonder if I have a problem?"

My second husband was an alcoholic. He died in 1987. I wish smartphones had been around then so I could have filmed him acting like an asshole instead of him hearing about it secondhand.

It's just not the same as seeing oneself being a drunken shit.

Maybe someone will do this girl a favor and show her how utterly disgusting she was acting.



Sad, sad, sad...

What the hell.
Urination is a natural function.
Public 'elimination' is perfectly acceptable in many cultures.


P.S. Always nice to see cute butt.
