Hearing Beethoven And I keep passing by the liquor stores
Well, I did it yet one more time. I passed A-1 Liquors on route 4 in Fair Lawn, NJ without stopping and getting a shot-bottle of scotch and a diet coke. And as long as I'm able to do so, I don't think I'll go back to AA. I don't have much untreated alcoholism in my life after years of "recovery." The only thing that really makes me angry these days is the narrow-mindedness of AA and other religious organizations. I tried it out last night, going to a meeting, and didn't even make it through the reading of How It Works.
Someone did call and say that he was glad to see me, but wished I would have stayed. Meetings make me want to drink, so I shouldn't go. I shouldn't go to places that make me angry and after 18 years of AA I feel as thought it's time again to change playmates a playgounds. Thanks for the last post, we can have our own meetings. I want this site to be more of a help to those who are irritated, just as I am, and we can stay sober together. You don't have to go to meetings. Sure, meetings work for the majority of sober people, but they're not for everyone. I choose a different route today. I'm not saying that someday I won't go to a meeting, but today I want to stay sober my way and I'm sober right now. My family gives me support and my friends outside of AA. And I try really hard to make a step toward sobriety and not engage in activities that cause me set backs.
I think you have to generate a feeling of magnanimity in your heart to stay sober; that's what saves us. That's why I passed the liquor store today, I feel good in the center of my chest. And even if I don't feel good, I can return there in time by staying sober and trying to do what if right, and just relaxing and letting go of problems.
I went to Carol's home after I left the meeting last night and she said, "you use me for support don't you?" I know she won't let me down and will always be there if I need her and guess what, I'll can be there for her too.
I really did some thinking last night and thought about AA's 12th step and how you hear people in the rooms talk about it like they actually work it. Huh! When I went out all of my friend dumped me like a bad habit. When I got sick I found out who my real friend were. Kate, Joan, Carol and my family and that was it. Nobody from my homegroup even gave a shit enough to call. So tell me again why I need AA. There is this one guy who call though, maybe we can become friends.

Its is me there veiled of return, and to help Julie has to be motivated in continue this blog decided to take part in it has L helps of chronicles. Cd. while returning, I falls on an escape ds our apartment; And I do not know if you have already preter attention with the outward journeys and come from the plumbers in your sacrosainte bathroom but those Ci have a propensity very surprising to be delirious on their predecessseurs. I want for example the last visit that was likely to receive this same day. After an attentive observation of the some pipes curving between the taps, this plumber S is finally expressed: "is Oh it but qu what is that y did there you those quizont done front Ca, is N imports what" And I also allow myself to quote you the famous one "And have you there to test resserer the ecrous?" Brutally a decharge adrenergic S carries out in you, of the beads of sweats start has to bead on your face and in the back. And you say yourselves "Makes shit, made a connery; no matter what I answer, etait L different trick qu it was necessary to then make "stupidly you answer him: "euuuh, yes, a little but not extremely and as it did not go, I called you" Seeing his glance you under hasten to add: "But J, hein, I did not wait called you immediately" And there, the sentence falls a such chopper frozen on your nape of the neck already cooled by the sweat (which S is etendue has all your body A present)"bah was not necessary" in short whatever the way in which you proceeded, etait the bad one but, God thank you, the culpability is sent especially on his "colleagues". And most extraordinary, cest that the next time; because there will be forthcoming once, criticism will be identical... And if all occurred all the time like Ca, I explain: Imagine seul(e), victim since qq month or years of a sentimental and sexual embargo, and then suddenly quelqu one which still plait you and more incredible, you it meets like you. I know is hypothetic, but is my heading then have the right ecrire N imports what. Thus once last all the obstacles of the life veiled you with it or him in its bed; and this person to tell you "Oh it, but qu is what Z did those there (or those, is according to your tastes.) which passed in your front heart, is N imports what, one does not have idea to leave a similar building site etc, etc." Hold can be that the life is always as with the plumber finally...

BLOCKBUSTERS

What a blockbuster?

A blockbuster is clearly an entertainment of masses. It is a film with large means designed to like a maximum of people and generally it is a film of action with much of special humour and effect. It is initiated by a producer. The producer specialist: Jerry Bruckheimer ("Armaggédon")

How to define a good blockbuster of bad?
Obviously subjective question since tastes and colors...

But we can point:

Charisma of the actor (good Bruce Willis will be of office higher than Steven Seagal)
the talent of the realizer who adapts the subject (Spielberg is a specialist in this field)
a scenario which holds surprises or is well rythmé ("The rock"avec Connery and Cage)
special effects décoiffants (seldom equalized "Terminator II")
A bomb (that is to explode as in "Die Hard III or one sexual bomb as Angelina pretty which gives again savour with a nullity like" Tombraider "or more recently Scarlett Johansson in" The Island") The quality of the movie theater which makes us profit from the good large sound on giant screen or not more mood of the spectator...

Spielberg is in form. With through a dishevelling sequence shot (discussion in the car); through the first scene of attack of the extraterrestrial ones; it puts full the sight of it to us. And yet it remains with breast height in particular by making of Tom Cruise an irresponsible father and anti-hero with possible (able even of a villainous act). Spielby does not sacrifice all to the higher bid of scene of action which ends up wearying (as in Van Helssing by ex) and retranscribed plausible human reactions where the man only seeks to survive by any means including the detriment of the others.

Christophe Nolan is not afraid of blackness. That falls well one is in Batman.

Very good beginning for a frankness which had fallen quite low. Malicious rather the faiblards even if not weak. Katie Holmes does not have any charisma, but she has some awesome tits. Special mention for the p' tite Dakota Fannings: excellent. The five last minutes which fall flatly in spite of an excellent idea at the base. History of the car (I do not say any to you more)

Charlie and the Chocolate factory
More
Johnhy Depp excel
Songs and music of Dany Elfman to the signal
It is a family comedy step cretin

Tim burton is him also forms and carries out hand of Master of it this tale rythmé with ideas gravos (parody of "2001 of space" - the scene with the squirrels...)

It is sometimes limiting too kitsch (even if wanted by the realizer) It is sometimes limiting moralizer (even if it is a family tale ) The character of Batman has finally consistency with the cinema. He has a past and especially he makes fear (impressionant Christian Basle).

Lost
I believe that today, I carried myself....
With force of lack of news... of very short lack... of anger... of desire of a true serieuse history....
"I will have liked that you return to me happy as I will like to return to you happy..."
It is a part of what I have to him ecris in my letter....
Cold, full with reproaches.... I imagine the evil that it will make him when it will read it...
But I am divided between my feelings and my suffering... I need all to say to him....
And so much worse, if Ca implies that I eloigne of him....
Such an amount of worse [... ] ouais....
I do not only want it a little, nor much, just all the time....
Overdoses of half-measures....
All or nothing....

Letter with my other....

If you knew as I like it.... A continuous love which does not disappear with the months which pass... and me which only thought.... Bah not....
I feel me only with him... I feel liked only by him....
He.....
He.... three years and then not, none arrived to you at ankle.... Right of the illusions to attenuate my sorrow....
Us two it is stronger than it, than the time which passes, that the hard tests that one has of passing, which the distance, which the absence, which all.... More extremely than our sufferings, our adventures which separées us more than one once....
Nothing made there, it is always one towards the other which one finds, that one seeks.... and today I believe to have made you enough wait... Then I am less afraid and I want to finally open a new page with you.... My Raphaël.... The only one which included/understood.... "one has vecu so much things which I know that you are that which I need.... and only today I think of knowing you..." Yes... three years... and you is only to have taken time to include/understand... to include/understand me... to forgive me.... what enables me today to grant this still timid confidence to you that I never grant....

I love you..... more extremely, more intensely than I did not like any other.... Their importances seem to me so remote today... it is sad nevertheless....

Today, you are my only Raphaël importance....

Congratulate me.
What I'm ReadingThe Essential of MarketingHuman EvolutionI am now the proud owner (ok, renter - but that doesn't sound nearly as nice) of a 1200 sq ft office space. I'm moving in on November 1st. Excited, yes! (crossing my fingers that nothing happens between now and then that'll change things... *Hm*) This is so neat. Now, All I need is an intern. But, yes, I'm excited - Let me tell you a little more about the space (because I know you're just as excited about it as I am). It's seventeen feet wide and about seventy-two feet long (whoo-ha!). It has two windows, one is a regular dormer-size window on the right side, but at the opposite side (from the entrance) wall there is a arc-window that is sixteen and a half feet wide, and about ten feet tall in the center. It's so fabulous.Ok, I promise this will be the last description I write of my new office space (so fun to write, that), but I'll keep you updated as I spend and purge at the ol' IKEA (sigh) for desks, chairs, a conference table, yadda yadda yadda. Did I tell you that it will have a kitchenette? And it's own lobby? and it's mine?I'm so excited.But - now I have to get back to work. :D (to pay my rent - funny, I don't like saying that nearly as much... heck, yes I do).
