I picked the wrong time to stop drinking

No, not an Airplane reference, but because of a medication that I started a month ago, I cant drink.

I really really really wouldnt mind getting a little buzzed tonight after I put my 2 year old to bed tonight.

Maybe I'll take an extra muscle relaxer after dinner and whack myself in the head with a rubber mallet for a little altered conscious.

I take a medication I cant drink with,so if I want to drink, I have to do it at lunch.

Right now I just finished a bunch of chocolate chip cookies. No child in this house now, so I gave my dog an extra hug.

Right now I am fighting hate, I am just hating that young boy that made this mess.

I am sick of all this, I wrote to my congressman and senators and told them to get on the stick. I think the public supports gun control, time to get the congress off it''s addiction to the NRA.

I hope you have some peace tonight, this is a very scary event. A lot of kids will not be out of their parents sight for a while.

but it is not so much the young shooter (obviously mentally ill) but rather the GOP and the NRA and all the people who want less regulation, less health care, less money for mental health care, less money for those in need, less taxes for the rich, etc...

we are a violent society and so many want to do nothing positive to help
