So I look at the problem directly in front of me and focus more on methodology. What needs to be done, rather than what I can't do.

That’s my folly.
Control. I’m certain that I’m somehow in control when I act impulsively but “I” don’t feel “I” when I buy $300 shirts and find that I’m $800-1,500 overdrawn each month.
Sometimes I come here and I think that I’m really just too ****** up to relate to people who have their **** together so well.
******* it. That last sentence makes no sense.
I was flying so high for so long and then I became so much less than superfluous in such a short period of time.
<—me. An adult. Oh, I don’t know. Why, yes, I DO use adult language. I learned to pepper my conversations with adult language. You can be a skinny little kid and you’ll only get in trouble if one of the Sister’s hear you.
