Not the exact ones but a couple from the same artists/albums those other ones came from. And yeah, not house party stuff. But then, I never went to a house party. When I was in my mid late teens I was just surfacing from turbulent times at home. My mom had finally stabilized and got a med regime that kept her bipolar in control and both my parents stopped drinking alcohol. Full disclosure -I had severe depression, the bitter angry type as a reaction to my mom’s mental illness and alcoholism and also to my dad seemingly enabling her drinking . I was in therapy weekly for about 6 yrs and bi-weekly for a few more. I had my last visit ironically when I had recently started working at a state psychiatric hospital. After my mom had stabilized and we’d hashed out in family therapy what we needed to, until I moved out I’d sit with my mom in the kitchen while she drank the decaf she loved and probably had juice or soda and talk about our day. Until they moved to Salem, I’d try to come over at least once a week for a quick visit, usually during/after a bike ride while we were still close. I think this’ll end it for now. I do tell people whom I consider at least casual friends something about this but inly when I feel very connected do I detail it out like this. Anyways there you have it, what makes me tick or more appropriately a medium helping of it. Hitting post now before it turns into an entire page.
Today is my Thursday. Welcome to weird schedules cause you work in a hospital
