Post subject:  The other night I had an epiphany.
Sorry guys but this has fuck all to do with horror or movies whatsoever, it is about me.

The other night I was laying in bed, next to my beautiful wife as she slept and I realised, out of the blue, that my life is actually pretty fucking awesome. I am not rich, if anything I earn alot less than the national average, but I am happy and that is, after all, what really counts. I have a family that love and support me, and I return the favour. I have a low paid job, but I work with a fucking brilliant fella and I love the work.

The reason I came to this conclusion is because lately I have spent a lot of time deep in thought trying to correct certain character flaws I have, some selfishness, problems with becoming hooked on whatever form of 'relaxation' I choose (drugs) and a real problem with obsessing on negative things in my life. I had a real inability to actually express what I was feeling, and this was just leading to frustration that was being released as anger, not good at all. TBH it almost forced a split between my wife and I, and I did not even see it coming and she just assumed I was bored with her and had no time, a bad situation.

My two youngest spawn, of all people, pointed this situation out to me and told me it was also making them unhappy. This made me feel like an absolute piece of shit and I became determined to change before I lost all that I had.

The upshot of this was I packed some clothes, grabbed my car keys, kissed my wife on the forehead and said I would be back in a couple of days. I fucked off and did my thinking, something I am very good at, and returned once the shit was sorted in my head. When I returned she said I was like the Ant she first met, I was so relieved.

Since then we have had some real deep conversations, something we had not done for years, and now my life is perfect. She says she feels like she is connected to me again, and I must concur with her.

Shit like this is what really counts and that is the reason I feel rejuvenated. Like I said, I have no money but I have the really valuable stuff already in my possession.

Sorry for the crap but I needed to tell someone.

Cheers guys and girls for listening.

Normal service will resume next time I post. :twisted:

I am happy to hear this. Drugs are wrong. Money is necessary but does not really make you happy. Good points there! :D

Cheers guys.

@Slayer, I knew you would get it, super smart.

@verm, no hookers my friend, just sheep.

@RedVeil, I am now on a schedule for drugs. I am using only weed, and only at the week ends. I get in this trap where it starts with the best intentions and somehow manages to creep into an all day and every day thing, like so many other people. The biggest problem is that for some really fucked up and unknown reason I started taking coke, pills, pretty much anything I could get my hands on, only for a few weeks but it was enough. That was something I was adamant I would never do again.

TBH it scares me now how close I came to destroying my own life in a few short weeks, and I never even saw it coming.

What a prick I was.

I must admit that at this point in time I feel most calm indeed. Hard to describe really, I suppose it is like being at peace with myself, cheesy as it sounds.

That is so true my friend. I am the first to admit I am a cunt to live with, mood sings is an understatement.

marriage isn't so bad, when done in moderation. I used to like sluttly girls, now i like nice ones. does that mean i'm getting old?
There was this girl i reaaly liked, and she liked me, and in a rare moment of unselfishness, I didn't do the mommy/daddy dance with her because i thought she'd be better off having nothing to with me (You may not have noticed, I may come of somewhat shady on occasion)......and she ended up becoming NUN.

how fucked up is that?
if i could go back and do it all over again, I coulda fucked a nun.

so when I die, one thing I'd like people to say about me
(Besides 'that bastard owed me a lot of money!')
'He could have fucked a nun!'

I haven't been online for a while. My kids have jumped on a few times to check stuff for me but not alot else. Unfortunately real life needed my attention, it got complicated, then it got really messy. I wish people would listen, but no, they always choose the more 'complex' route.

All sorted now chaps.

Normal service should resume shortly. :rock:
