Comrades, that time again! How have things been going for you? Anything cool you wanna talk about? Things not so great? This is your space to talk about it! Remember, you are loved stalin-heart

Up and down for me. Tour was a complete dud, we're never working with the booking agent again, and my ex let me know she'll be moving out in the middle of December. I'm glad they'll get to spend some time with their parents, they've been talking about moving back for years, but I just wish it was under better circumstances. Not sure what I'm gonna do yet. On the bright side, love life seems to be on an upswing again. The person who got us hotel rooms on tour came over to hang out last night. We had a few drinks with the corgi, and then TRIED to watch that killer sloth movie, but we both fell asleep on the couch for like 2 hours together. THey also baked me a loaf of chocolate pumpkin bread to say welcome home, which was super sweet.

Hope you're all well!

I've been really struggling with drinking again and have been drunk 6 of the of past 7 nights. I got it back on track towards the start of this month where I was only drinking on the weekend but I couldn't keep that up.

Today is a special day for me though. Back in very beginning of 2019 I dropped out of college and became a NEET for many years, and October 24th 2021 was when I started piecing my life back together. There's been ups and downs but the past two years have been the best two years of my life. Maybe this October 24th will be just as important for me, who knows.

Sounds like you've got a lot going for you. As a fellow alcoholic who doesn't always do so well, you've got this too. It's one day at a time. Some days I don't even think about it. Others I get off work and get drunk. But these days it's more of the former than the latter.

I wish you the best!
