DAVID'S PROGRESS (Beer, Beer & More Beer)

May 14th 2009 14:26
I asked Mum how much longer David would be here. She says he'll be gone in 3 weeks. Got some work, apparently. About time! This house just isn't big enough to contain his degenerate ways.
Our recycling bin is crammed with beer cans. Beer, beer and more beer! I've seen him getting a can from the fridge first thing in the morning. More than once. I mean, I like a beer, don't get me wrong. But for breakfast?
He says that beer contains all the breakfast nutrients because it's made from grain. He calls it 'liquid muesli'. Whatever.
Dinner's a bit late tonight. I'm starving. He really is an excellent cook. I'm going to miss the meals. Mum says she's over cooking ...
Well, that was last night. But I couldn't post. Some problem with passwords ...
David wasn't here tonight so Mum managed to boil some water and cook pasta. Maybe next time she'll get enthusiastic enough to make a sauce to go with it.
Even though he drinks a lot, at least you can have a conversation with David. Mum just passes out.

Wow, Jimmy, I can relate to this litany of faults.

I am one hell of a cook!

I am a great drinker, but a crappy drunk.

I never pass out like regular folks, oh nooooooo, I've got to black out for three before I pass out.

I still have people come up to me with outrageous story about the antics of Rowdy, a persona that I adopted when blacked out, 20 years after I quite drinking.

Thankfully I have no recollection of those events, but many scars.

Families have their quirks and that's interesting, except for when they wind up on the front page or the 5 o'clock news special.

Yup, ya got it all ~ but I'd suggest you learn to cook and seek mental health help straight away; you may be able to salvage some of your youth if you do. . . it's a shot.

Hi Nevar,
My mum's example has put me off excess of any kind. I should say 'past' example because it has been years since I saw her incoherent from alcohol. But the crying, screaming and slamming doors till the handles broke - that went on for much longer so I think my youth has already been imprinted but, hey, it gives me a reason to blame my parent(s) for my problems.
And I'm as pretty good cook too.

Odd, my kids blame me for their troubles and send me their psyche bills as well.

They're more take out folks than cooks.

Hehe Nevar - Rowdy is my cats name. He's a nutter.

oops - meant to say, one of my favourite characters, Misato Katsuragi, has beer for breakfast everyday. She sculls, and screams, "WOOO! What a way to start the morning!"
