So things are about to get back to "normal". The retailer has not gotten back to me and, with new social distancing guidelines, I do not think that will be a bad thing. It would be greatly appreciated to still be furloughed there while I need to start getting use to waking up at 8:15 a.m. again. What will I do without those extra three hours of sleep?
It means I cannot drink as much, but with things settling down, the parental assistance should not be relied upon so heavily (despite I will only be making the same amount of money) as it has been. If I need an anti-anxiety aide, there is about two weeks of edibles to fall back on. The only problem with THC gummies is that they will end your evening. When they kick in, the gaming shuts down. Booze is a little more manageable.
Before you go on the, "Alcohol is not an anti-anxiety med," stance, let me ask if you have mastered your alcoholism? Since I have left very few personal downer posts on social media in the past six years, I have successfully made the only suitable nickname for it giggle juice. Still, moderation or abstaining from it is best. The only reason I was never straight edge was that I wanted the freedom to drink.
That statement makes me feel like I should relate a little to the lockdown protesters. "We have the freedom to not where mask or social distance." Is that not the same as the hypocrisy alcohol, pot, and abortion being available while church and temple are deemed nonessential? I think we have abused the option to be an asshole.
The only time I approved of the, "Mama told me I could be anything I wanted when I grew up, so I became an asshole" shirt was when those folks were my friends and we were only give each other shit, in bars. As it turns out, the statement on the shirt has no value because you are not an asshole when you are a decent bar patron. No politics or religion. Reminds me of my post "Facebook Should Be the Ultimate Bar, So Know the Rules".
Anyhow, as long as I am not behind the wheel (which some of my friends would argue that you would be even safer), my drunkenness is not a safety concern unless you want to make it your concern. You are already being an asshole if you are not wearing a mask and you are making my safety a concern.
