Not to mention, depending where you live there might not be other options.

Well, the former doesn't concern me, but doesn't 7-11 sell premade sandwiches?
And I have one a ten~fifteen minute bus ride away, but the nearest Wally-Mart is over half an hour, or something~
I have no fucking clue where the hell it is~ :\

I have to think that you sailed miles past the point on purpose.  The sandwich was because I was hungry and to demonstrate the range of items I'd like to be able to buy at one store.  When I coming home from work in the middle of the night, I don't want to make a lot of stops, especially when the footpads are the reason I'm "shopping" at all.

[Gunner-Chan]

Actually I think I've seen footpads at a local stripes here... Interesting!

Spent a five and a half hour trainride together with a happy couple, who were cuddling with their two kids.
Made me seriously fantasize about marriage, even though I hadn't even had a real realationship.
Also made me rethink my childhood 

When my uncle picked me up from the train station, I came to know that mental illness is more common in my familiy than I thought.
Three of my uncles (all 3 cases severe), one of my grandparents (also severe) and my mother (manageable).
Our family really should end with my generation...

Big blister on the bottom of my left heel.

Feeling old, tired and melancholy. I feel like quoting the lyrics of a particularly apropros (and awesome) Warren Zevon song.

Well, I went to the doctor
I said, "I'm feeling kind of rough"
"Let me break it to you, son
Your shit's fucked up."
I said, "my shit's fucked up?"
Well, I don't see how-"
He said, "The shit that used to work-
It won't work now."


I had a dream
Ah, shucks, oh, well
Now it's all fucked up
It's shot to hell


Yeah, yeah, my shit's fucked up
It has to happen to the best of us
The rich folks suffer like the rest of us
It'll happen to you


That amazing grace
Sort of passed you by
You wake up every day
And you start to cry
Yeah, you want to die
But you just can't quit
Let me break it on down:
It's the fucked up shit

I'm looking at 8x10 glossy photos of my friend doing drugs in an alleyway. I think its meth, maybe crack? I dunno. There's definitely a clearish pipe looking thing she's holding her lighter under with a bulb on the end. That much I know, that and this is the PI I'm using from now on.... Crazy, magnificent bastard, the timestamps say 5am.... Didn't expect anything from him for at least a couple days. I have a feeling this guy is expensive, but he works fast and well. Seems worth it.

This explains a lot, like why she had no money for food. Is meth expensive? Or is it that you just tend to get fired when you use a lot of it? The fuck did it come to this...?

[RedKing]

Oy. That sucks. And this is the same friend who was too ethical to take money that you left for her in an envelope? That seems....incongruous.

Both, I'd have to imagine. Illegal drugs don't generally have any sort of price control, especially when the providers of it monopolize their distribution into an area. Methamphetamine can induce feelings of grandeur and invincibility, as well as causing paranoia and a psychosis that resembles schizophrenia. I think we know why your friend won't take the money now, and why she got mad at you.

[Mindmaker]

I'm visited my grandmother for the first time in 4-5 years. I didn't even know, why I hadn't visited her in such a long time.
Now I remember. It's because I learn things, which simply aren't healthy to know.

All these devil and demon stories. They used to be fascinating as a kid, but nowadays, these religious hallucinations just make me worry about her mental health.

I knew my uncle and mother had a difficult childhood, but I didn't need to know all the details about their father.
About domestic violence, several cases of attempted murder, alcohol abuse, multiple detentions in a psychiatric hospital...

About the details of the mental ilnesses afflicting half of my close family, often to the degree where they were unable to work and function in society.

How my parents admitted to her that they failed in their role, even though they're still insisting that I'm the problem.

This is putting a huge strain on my mental health. I really just want to return home...

[Vector]

Wait, Truean, you hired a PI?

...

Woman of steel!

[Mindmaker]

Aw, crap.
And now that my uncle has discovered that I own a tarot deck, the next few days will be about "the dangers of opening oneself to black magic".
I hope I'll manage to stay reasonable, when faced with massive amounts of bible-logic.

[ToonyMan]

Heh, I had to go to Church for like, the first time in my life for some reason when I was like 15 or 16.  My Aunt was there and she made me saved by Jegus.  So now I am safe.  Or something.  Religion is weird.

[Mindmaker]

Lucky you. My soul will apparently be lost, if I don't get rid of the deck.
At least I managed to get him all sweaty during our first argument.
I hope he'll just let it go, once he realises he can't win...
