still this emptiness persists,  perhaps this is as good as it gets

when you’ve given up the drink and those nasty cigarettes

now i leave the party early at least with no regrets

i watch the sun come up and i watch it as it sets

yes this is as good as it gets

Well here i am 47 days dry save for some sweat and a few drops of tear..... apparently no worse for wear. I lost some weight at first but then my taste buds grew back and now i want chocolate.....all day long. One vice for another i spose..... but I’d rather work off a piece of cake than a tequila hangover any day. 

I do often find myself alone on the bus which is sometimes difficult. We beagles are pack animals and are quite lost without our peeps. But they never stray farther than the nearest pub and always come back much happier than they left. I usually spend these solitary sessions writing or indulging my latest bad habit.....purchasing iTunes.

I have spent the past 3 years carefully burning only the favourite tracks from my own CD collection. While the process was painstaking, the result is a personal playlist that has grown to some 7000 paw picked tracks. Now I am free to raid the itunes store in good conscience.....and i love it (I have a 10$ a day habit). How can they make music this good and sell it for so cheap?

 Oh Yeah.......they can’t.

So my nites r not wild anymore but my days are all the better. I always wake up early and drink enuf coffee to give a cat a coronary. Then I exercise and go to work. And if that’s as good as it gets.....then that’s pretty friggin good.
