feeling better, detaching with love…

Posted on by Johnnyboy

Just a quick one–I have to buckle down and get some work done. Yesterday proved to be a fruitless day for homework, but I rested, and finally my appetite returned. I was on the mend! I also had the best night’s sleep in almost 4 days last night, which left me feeling good this morning.

I woke up to the fears, anxieties, and regrets of the alcoholic in denial and struggling to manage a life without the tools or knowledge of how to use them. For this I practice quiet detachment and the Three Cs–
I didn’t Cause it, can’t Control it, can’t Cure it. So I let it go.

I have been watching ‘Firefly’, the Joss Wheddon show set in a 500 year future. I really love the sci-fi/cowboy-western combo, and I’m sorry that it never went beyond one season and a TV movie.

Anyway, back to the EU…

Johnnyboy is a queer recovering alcoholic. For the moment he is also the primary caregiver for his mother, who suffers from age-related cognitive impairment. She is happy as a lark and is surrounded by a crew of sober women which gives him the freedom he needs to get out of town. When he is not at home in Somewheresville, he is searching out the proper path to travel for happiness and joy. He is a photographer who believes in the digital age, but feels that film is still where its at. He has a darkroom and works in it. He is single and is in remarkably great physical condition for all the damage he has submitted his body to. His cardiologist is very happy. Johnnyboy is over the age of 35.
