starting over, yet again
May 1, 2008
jesse and i have decided to suck it up and move our junky asses back to a sober house. the biggest reason is the simple fact that we need to do SOMETHING. we have been out in the sticks @ my parents house for about a month now, and it’s just a dead end down here. no jobs, no people, no drugs. you name it, it’s not here. and my mom just let us in on the fun little fact that her house is in forclosure *yet again*, so it would be best if we just took some of the pressure off and moved out. so i put the idea of the sober house on the table. i mean, if we get back to the city, we can have jobs from a temp agency that same week, and if we are in a sober house, it will be just that much harder to get high. (we have been doing really well, believe it or not, i am proud to say. we get high like twice a week, if that. we have been doing an at home methadone taper, and we are down to 15 tomorrow. i know it’s not ideal, but it’s keeping us from sticking ourselves, so i am a fan of the program
) we have been getting along so well, and we are ready to get a place of our own, we just need the start up capital. which we can’t get out here. the only jobs i’ve even heard of are housekeeping at the hospital for 7 something an hour, or waitressing @ the strip club. (do i even need to insert a joke here?) so jesse is all for the sober house move, for a couple months, so we can put away the cash to get a place. nothing says no drugs like triple time drugs tests. and i think it will be an easy transition, since we have been getting high so little. i am optamistic about the whole situation….
sorry it’s been so long since i’ve updated, more often than not there is no internet connection here, i just happened to fall on a good day and decided to hit up the blog. besides the impending move, things have been moderatly quiet. jesse and i have been expending most of our energy in trying to not get high, and rooting for the celtics. i hope to have time to give a more in depth account of our adventures, but there just isn’t time right now…..so keep your fingers crossed, and hopefully i’ll have a new job and a new place to go with my new begining……
