3. I love The Sopranos. Bad show to watch when you're on a diet though! LOL T and Big Pussy at Arty's

shoveling down the five-star pasta.

That show was part of the reason I was okay seeing a therapist. I'd been through some rough spots before and if anything, that bad happened again and I was depressed, I would ask to see someone.

It did and I just answered the intake questions truthfully at my doctor's office and indicated I had been depressed. He suggested an anti-depressant and I had always thought there was too much of that. People should see a therapist first maybe? So I did and that worked out well, but I ended up going for the anti-depressant.

It's Celexa and works great for me. One thing about that stuff is they also prescribe it for alcoholism. That's not why I'm on it but I think it works for that. I would only drink a few times a year. Usually when I broke training, I'd make it good and get drunk a few times over a week or so. About the first real hangover I got, and I was done again for months.

You can't drink on this shit, and I never have really had the urge. I'm like two years overdue.

My ex was like that with her bills, and I helped her out some for a while. It's one of the reasons we are done. She would know she was probably in trouble but not even open her bills. Like she was afraid to look. So then a utility gets cut off and it's an emergence and I'm on the phone fixing it for her. I had enough after a while and called it quits.
