Intoxicated (100)


"Did you see the way he stumbled in here?"

"Yeah, why is he here anyway?"

He stopped short of the door on his way out and hit the floor. The necklace fell out of his shirt for everyone to see. A closer look revealed that he was not intoxicated as they had thought.

If he's not intoxicated what's wrong with him? Why do they assume he is drunk, is he falling down or did he merely trip on something? Who's talking? Where is he that everyone would stop to stare?

He is at a party, ate a decadent dessert someone told him was sugar-free, went into diabetic shock and passed out.

I hate ppl who lie about things which are and are not sugar-free. Sweetners put me into a coma.

It's amazing how some people don't think about those little things and how important they could be.

C is for Calm

It's been so long that I'm not sure what it is anymore but I think I'm beginning to find calm. It is the feeling that allows you to find contentment in the smallest things. It does not have to be something major, it can be something as simple as a gentle breeze. There are a number of things that have a calming effect; I look forward to being able to do them. What are they? I'll tell you in no particular order. Walking on the beach. Drinking a beer by a bonfire. Sitting in front of a fireplace. Reading a book. Spending time alone just thinking or writing just to write. Calm is a nice feeling, and one that has been missed the last few years. Slowly it is returning that is why C is for calm.
