And finally, I should consider the notion that although there may be 'no me',

*there might as well be one* as long as I am clinging to a past history and

totally on my own*.

ok enough is enough.

 

" me me me me me " ..

 

it's getting to be a broken record timmy.

 

sad songs are for lost souls in sad little bars saying:

 

" play it again sam..and again..and again..and again " .

 

you should try and stop that sort of weepy shit.

 

as i said in this mornings first posting..

 

make that your last drink kid.

 

your intoxication with yourself is getting maudlin.
