Happy Thread

Was going to put this in the Unhappy Thread, but decided here…
I had a slip in my addiction recovery over the weekend. Dealing with crushing guilt, anxiety, and shame over it all. I’m happy because I have friends like Jeff @CigarStone who I can confide in without fear of judgement.
I feel the same about everyone here. You are extended family. You’d think I would want to keep it to myself, but it somehow helps to put it out there with people who I feel like they know me, and to own it. Keeping it inside is a huge burden for some reason.

Thanks for listening!

I think one of the reasons you and I became such great friends so easily is because you are just straight upfront. I've handed you what I though were good cigars and you tell me your honest opinion (it sucks):)

As I've mentioned on here before, we all have to kiss asses and babysit adults in our professional lives, and because of this, I won't do it in my personal life. I won't say anything behind someones back that I won't say to their face, and I wish more people lived by that rule. Some assholes think I am mean or intolerant, but they are just mamby pamby pussies!🤣
