Wasnt Sure [View all]

I wasn't sure about this post. I guess I'm just very tired. I don't sleep well most nights. My husband and I have separate bedrooms because I have nightmares. PTSD and I'm 100% VA disabled and on SSDI.

I saw a news story today that for some reason just got to me. Being gay, married in CA, having money issues, a lot depresses me.

Then, this story.

https://www.ajc.com/news/crime/5-from-alpharetta-including-2-children-killed-in-head-on-crash-in-texas/GXTDFWVWOBCZJG34Q3T7BT2B2E/

Five people killed because some impatient ASSHOLE decided to pass a slower car in a no passing zone. It was Texas, but it could've been anywhere. I guess I'm just a bit sad that it seemed society gas become so obsessed with ME ME ME and screw everyone else. I'm in such a hurry I have to kill some DAMN KIDS. I mean come on.

Sorry for the rant. I'm sitting in a bar having a drink and burger. My husband is here to drive me home, he just got his 12 year or something AA coin. So I'm going to get plastered.
