Lunchbox:
Hm. Maybe I'll stop by the tea shop at lunch and see if they have any looseleaf that's water decaffeinated. Mum gave me a neat little diffuser teapot that I've never got around to using.
The caffeine in tea never really affects me anyway, I just drink tea for something to do and because I like the taste (and now that I don't drink it as much as I did when I was a barista, caffeine from espresso coffee gives me the shakes all day).

The kindness of a complete stranger saved my life. I seriously had a huge stash of codeine cough medication that I was going to mix with that 4Loko in my stomach. I threw it all out in a dumpster 5 miles from my apartment. It'll suck if I get sick now because I'll have none of my cough drops, but whatever. I just can't believe that shit happened.

You should probably do something drastic about your situation. Strangers isn't going to be around every night stuff is shitty. I'm not sure why, but you seem like a nice, talented guy, and it's not a good thing when one in every three of your posts lately are about offing yourself. I'm not going to tell you what to do, but something is a pretty good start.
As long as something isn't stronger dope than what you are taking, since having something you can OD on close at hand when depressed is a really fucking bad idea.

Yeah man, definitely this - especially if you feel like you're not in control of yourself. Does the place you live have one of those free helplines you can call? They might be able to help you out and direct you to resources where you can get counselling for cheap.
A Wet Helmet:
So my grandfather died Sunday. It's not like it wasn't expected, the doctors gave him two months to live well over a year ago. Almost a month ago they said he wouldn't last two more days. Despite the fact that I am enormously glad he's not suffering anymore, I am sure going to miss him. He was the coolest guy ever. He rode a jet ski every weekend the weather would allow well into his eightees. In fact, he retired from his third career at age 82 or 83 when the doctors told him he wasn't allowed to stand ten hours a day anymore.
He taught me to waterski when I was all of five years old.
He once built rubber band guns for every kid in the entire neighborhood.
He was silly in a way that every time I would watch the Cosby Show as a kid, Dr. Huxtable's antics would make me think of him.
He drank and smoked like he was Don Draper from Mad Men, but didn't have the slightest bit of jerk anywhere in him. The one time he ever got mad at me, it was because I sank a boat. I totally deserved it.
He had a huge collection of Playboy's, that me and my cousin used to swipe.
You couldn't go anywhere in town without running into someone who knew him. Nowhere.
Anyway, I get to pack up my family and fly this weekend so I can bury my grandfather, and it is about the last thing in the world I want to do.
BeoPuppy:
Sounds like an awesome guy. I'm sorry for your loss.

oh man we DJed at a silent disco last night against the DJ who does the biggest cheese night in Edinburgh, and we totally kicked his ass. We kept it fairly classy through the night, some good tunes, than at exactly 1 both of us (the other DJ and us) played Don't Stop Believing, and from there on it was just messy. We ended on a 90s pop-punk medley.
woooo fresher's week!
