Or even things you think are wrong. Wrong with a capital W, even. Drink, drugs, general sexual knavery. <\/p>\n<p>Sometimes? It&#8217;s understandable. We all have days and nights where we&#8217;re just kind of holding on by the fingernails. Trying not to fall off the precipice. Or jump off.<\/p>\n<p>If a drug fueled night of sexual knavery keeps you here another day, and nothing else would? You do what you have to do. It&#8217;s not great as a long term plan, but if it&#8217;s an emotional emergency?  Maybe it&#8217;s all that will work.<\/p>\n<p>Or maybe your thing isn&#8217;t sexual malfeasance, but drinking or drugs. Whatever. If it keeps you from doing something even more desperate than the drinking and drugs? Go for it. On a temporary basis.<\/p>\n<p>Then, when the immediate crisis is past. Call someone. Get help. Figure out how to deal with it in some way.<\/p>\n<p>Because band-aiding whatever it is with booze, drugs and sex is only sustainable for short periods of time.<\/p>\n<p>Uh. I hear.<\/p>\n<p>Sexual Knavery would be a good band name though.<\/p>\n<p>Aside:<br \/>\nOn Sunday, WordPress notified me that it was the 7 year anniversary of when I signed up with them.  I&#8217;ve actually been writing on the blog for&#8230;oh&#8230;I don&#8217;t know&#8230;10 months or so.<\/p>\n<p>So you could say that it has taken me 7 years to write 152,000 words. That&#8217;s about 1800 words a month. Or, you could say that it&#8217;s taken me 10 months, or 15,200 words a month.<\/p>\n<p>Either would be true.<br \/>\nI wonder if I will get to 200,000 by July when I&#8217;ll have been doing this for a year? I mean, without cheating. <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a good thing WordPress is free.<br \/>\nIt&#8217;s an even better thing that I don&#8217;t depend on words for money.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, that&#8217;s a lot of words for anyone to write. Even if there&#8217;s not a lot of point to most of them. Especially since I&#8217;ve spent most of my life keeping them all in.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for reading them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Certe notti se sei fortunato bussi alla porta di chi \u00e8 come te.
