Christians *have* to sin.

I don't drink to drown my problems, because those fuckers are really good swimmers.

Amazing, isn't it?

I drink to create problems :evil:

I drink twice a year.  When I do, I drink a LOT.  It unwinds the spring in my head and makes me extra Holy™, and then I'm sick for a day or two.  Problems are still there, but that isn't why I was drinking.  I was drinking to let all the mad dog's shit out of my head.

Booze is tricky. You might have a blast, or at least be able to tune out the ugly for a little while and focus on stuff you actually like.
Or it might make you think about all the wrong stuff until you want to go "down the road, not across the street".
It's fun sometimes, but actually kind of a shitty drug.

Yeah. Sometimes you have to just do that and get the shit out.

Ah well. It's a learning experience, no matter HOW fucking much I think I fucking know.

I use it when I need to be able to walk outside and look like I'm not stark raving mad. Appointments, grocery shopping, visiting the few people I dare call "friends" in this godforsaken mudhole. I use other things too, but booze is legal and a drug that I can dose myself on quite accurately. It's always going to ruin my thinking, but it tends to scramble it in such a way as to short circuit, before anything else, my raving-monologue program which usually kicks in the second I'm away from a computer or a pen and paper for more than 5 minutes.

They made me paranoid once. I moved into low-income housing on the bad side of Tucson for 6 months, and then I fled the state for 10 years. Now that I'm back in AZ, I find myself avoiding TV like the plague. They mix the airwaves here with something terrible.

When you really want to just cut loose and fuck shit up a shortcut to annihilating every last molecule of common sense and inhibition is handy. The reduction in motor skills and dulling of pain receptors also serves to increase the hilarity. Using any chemical to escape from or forget about problems which you know you should really just be manning up and dealing with seems to be nowhere near as effective.

Yep.  And now the police have Gone Bad again.

My, that cliff is getting steep.

There is no low-income housing on the bad side of Tucson.  The bad side of Tucson is Oro Valley.

Bad according to the Right People.

Although to be fair to them, some guys did steal a tire from my car while it was parked outside my apartment. They left it on a big rock with a note that said "thanks," though. I didn't blame them. Probably needed it more than I did.

Fixed for accuracy.

In any case, you're lucky that's all they took.

When I was ten and people still got vacations and went on road trips, we got a room in Laredo one night so we could go across the border the next day and shop.

During the night, all four new tires were stolen off my dad's car but whoever did it replaced all of them with bald ones.
