I am my own worst enemy

It's hard to explain...

It's hard to explain what I mean, how I feel. I know that I am better off staying here, in my home town, where I have a good job and a happy if predictable life. But I just can't help but feel restless, and think there must be something better out there. I mean, just the simple life of washing dishes at the Cedar Falls Dinette and living in a cheap room above Acme General Store. Having three or four people I talk to regularly, just to say hi, my only connection to humanity....

Alcohol IS a higher power!

That bit of homespun philosophy came to my while I was... you guessed it, DRUNK!

I thought it was clever at the time, but then later searched to see if anyone else had ever thought of that before me. According to Gogol (my favorite Ukrainian search engine) about 729,00 people thought of it before I did. Hey, that's not so bad. It's less than a million, right? I mean, if you entered the nicest person in the world contest and made the top million, that would be something to write home about!
