My paper on Yugoslavia is finished. All I have to do is finalize the bibliography, correct some of the last few pages, and submit it for official inspection. Done. All forty pages. Granted, I could have written the thing in two weeks, but it took me all summer. Now I can concentrate on the b/w work in the darkroom and be through that as well. 12 credits to go after this month! A light at the end of the tunnel…
On an AA note, I realized last night what Step Six means. It means that my character defects limit me from being all that I could be. It seems obvious, but it has taken me 6 years to understand that concept. I think my friend Lolly is right…A Step a year…
I ran into an old friend at the Men’s Group last week. He was always a good man, supportive of me and now he has 6 months of sobriety. We talked of old times and he told me that another old colleague had OD’d last year sometime–found dead in his dirty, dark apartment. Too much Crack. His heart exploded. No one was surprised. I certainly wasn’t. RIP George Benner–It could have been me.
