So the other day I go to have dinner with SWMBO after she got off of work at a local restaurant here in town. While we are sitting at the bar one of her coworkers is rambling about nonsense the whole time right in between us. She's going on and on about how shes running on adderall and coffee since she hasn't slept in two days, even though she kept saying that she doesnt take medicine. Aparantly she doesnt take medicine thats prescribed to her or used in a way to benefit her health. So she goes on about how her friend did this or how she wants to try that, all of which were abuses of medicine. One was 'robotripping' (although she didnt know the term) on robitussin, and taking ambien but staying awake through it to hallucinate. I try to get words in like "thats really bad for your liver" and "I knew some people that tried that once (ambien) and they spent 3 hours puking their guts out". But she was too hopped up on speed to let me get a word in. I gave up when she got to this gem.
"Oh em Gee! Like, did you know that you can, like, get trashed if you put hydrocodeine in, like, a glass and, like, put sprite and jolly-ranchers in with it? Lil Jon and all the rappers do that! I wanna, like, try it this weekend with my boyfriend!" ...ok you do that. But have fun waiting for those pills to dissolve cause your doin it wrong... My God, purple drink (named for the promethazine codeine syrup, which is red or purple) has been around for YEARS and if anything, lil jon and the others have already moved on. Bah! it annoys me so much, this rich kid from the suburbs born with a silver spoon in her mouth, in a sorority dating a frat guy, does everything she can to be ignorant and destroy her body. Then, has to take speed and/or coke just to be able to do all of the homework that she didnt do while she was getting trashed.
So many things happen around me every day (here in the college town at least) that do nothing but reaffirm my decision to give up on humanity. The only things that keep me sane are my friends 650 miles away, SWMBO, and this subculture of homebrewing I've recently found myself in.
Bah, sorry bout the rant but I can only take so much.
(BTW, mods, if I need to edit some things out of here just let me know)
