Oh, Life Ain't Easy...

...but it sure is easier when you have three-quarters of a bottle of 1999 98-point shiraz. I will regret posting this tomorrow; I am never too drunk to be unaware of my own shame and dignity, but I refuse to delete it, in the interest of those things.

Ah, the grape, it embraces me warmly, dragging me down, down, down, into swimming, murky numbness. It is quiet here, with nothing but the sound of the blood rushing through the vessels in my ears, reminding me that I am alive, and I will live to fight another day.

Just not right now. For now, we embrace, and spin together, in the burgundy black. I can almost forget all that ails me, ignoring their proximity, assuring myself that they will wait until tomorrow.

Almost.

For now, we embrace.

you can't be terribly drunk... you still type legibly.

but yes, the troubles will still be there tomorrow, just as life is always at once everywhere, just as surely you will be there tomorrow to embrace it anew.

Embrace? I prefer grope.

Hey, hon. Sorry we couldn't be there for you more last night, but [info]sculplady really needed her sponge bath. [hugs] I'll call you tonight. We'll wallow together. It'll be fun.

Sponge bath sounds far more fun than it probably was.

Why anyone would want to embroil themselves in this situation that the three of us have made for ourselves is beyond me, but it's appreciated.

Everyone's more goth when they're drunk.

I thought it was kind of emo, but okay.

I thought the same thing after I posted it, but I'm not real sure what the difference is. Is it the desire to be a vampire and wear black lipstick? Or the impulse to hate everything that's popular and pay too much money for clothes that look used?

I don't know. I pay too much money for clothes that look like they cost too much money. Go figure.

It would have had to have been absinthe to be goth.
