After two weeks of abject terror and crap, I think that I should feel the need to say a lot. But, do you know, I just don’t.
There is an old Swedish proverb, and I’m sure that it looses something in my own particular translation, that says
“Please love me when I least deserve it. Because it is then that I really need you the most.”
What more can I say?
Well, there is one more thing.
Cream rises.
I know what I mean, and that is all that counts. To me.
It is selfish, I know. But alcoholism can be a most selfish disease.
It is awful, I know. But alcoholism can be a most awful disease.
Are we sometimes pathetic? Probably. I know, because alcoholism can be a most pathetic disease.
But that is no excuse for cream not to rise. Maybe, for some close to me, I have 'gone off'; perhaps I'm well beyond my 'sell by date'.
If so, that would be a shame. For them.
As they say, beauty is in the eye of the 'beer holder'.
I sincerely hope that that made sense.

ReplyDeleteI spend my life trying to make people laugh.
That's really what I was sent here for.
I can't remember a single joke. I just bounce off the moment. And, apparently, I'm as funny as ...
You'd never think that, looking at me on my Vlog, would you? But I am.
