booze, depression and leo

i want to (semi)publicly announce that i am making a change with my relationship to the sauce. i'm cutting waaay back and it feels good. i'm doing as much as i can to deal with my depression,
or as tom would say 'our depression'........

from arrested development:
Buster: (about Lucille 2) And her nausea's gotten really bad, too. It's really been difficult on us. It's definitely taking its toll.
Michael: Well, you know, you're free to go, pal. It's not like you made a commitment to this woman.
Buster: Well, I didn't make a commitment ... I did refer to it as our nausea. But you know, that's when we were going at it really hot and heavy.
Michael: Well, now it's my nausea.

it's kinda like being on a diet, and going to a* (expensive) dr. for diet pills, but still insisting on eating french fries every day.

honestly, giving up cigarettes wasn't too hard....i just switched my 'treat' from cigs to booze. this change might be a challenge, but i'm up for it. i'm serious about feeling better, damnit. plus, i might lose a few pounds, which ain't so bad either!

*should i use the indefinite article ** "an" because it indicates "expensive", or is there a special parenthesis clause? hmmmmm

** the definite articles are*** a great band

*** "is"? or "are"? i like math better.

post, part II:

this friday tom and i start our three month gig of being foster parents to jenni's-friend-jay's cat, leo!!
