Had to delete what I had here.

Well, I had to delete the original post. Looks like the vid I used was no good. It got deleted from youtube for copyright infractions. I have no idea why. It was a news broadcast. So, that's it. Everybody needs to get paid in this day and age. Fucking greedy ass people. Always want something for nothing. Lazy assholes. Oh well.

I fucking hate people.

Still Here

It's been awhile, I'm still here. It has been just me and the dog for awhile. I miss my girl, but we talk on the phone on a daily basis. I miss her, so does my dog. She will be back in a couple weeks.

Been doing alot of imbibing in the basement which has led me to a decision. What's the point? Getting drunk in my basement by myself, it's boring actually. When I initially made plans for my basement, it was to have a full bar, kicking sound system and video entertainment. Now, I have all of those but only I use it. I live in a very rural area, by choice, I have yet to invite friends over, but have not because of the fact I live so far away from them. If they were to drink, they could always crash, but, I will not force them too. They all have families and it would take 2 hours round trip to get to my place. I know what you are asking yourself, why don't he get to know local people? I am a very shielded person. I do not like strangers. The friends that I have now, and trust I have known over 20 years. Don't get me wrong, I do not hate everybody, I just tend to value friendship very highly. I do have acquaintances, but only 2-3 real friends. If anybody were to come to my place, get drunk, then drive home and hurt somebody, I would never be able to forgive myself. It would be my fault. I could not live with that.

Hence, my decision. The bar, stereo, music collection, etc is going into storage. Perhaps one day I may break it back out, I'm not sure. I will still have a few every now and then, but the bar is history.

I do have a couple ideas about the basement that I am kicking around in my head. Not sure what I want to do down here. I do know this, the lady is going to be ecstatic when she comes home and sees the changes. She has always thought I drink too much, and ya know what. I agree with her. I am not going on the wagon, just not going to imbibe so often. There is no point in it.

Don't get me wrong. I am not getting rid of any of my bar crap, just putting it away. The music collection as well. I have since realized that my music and drinking go hand in hand actually. Listening to my music puts me in a good mood, that good mood makes me feel like having a few. The end result, me drunk, blasting the music.....etc. Nothing accomplished but a hangover the next day and me feeling guilty if I put my lady through hell when I was drunk. That has only happened a couple times, but, she don't deserve it, and I need to grow the fuck up. I want this basement to be something I can be proud of. Not a shrine to me being drunk.
