i'm not alone, but I'm still a loser. At 34, I oughta be able to provide for myself. The fact that I can't makes me a loser at life, and nothing you or anyone else can say can take away the sting of that knowledge...that I am incapable of making it on my own. whcih, taking the candy-coating off it...makes me a loser.

But thanks for trying. Even though mom and I get along great, and we have a good set-up here...even though I'd planned on moving back in with mom when she retireed seven years from now...the fact that I did it out of economic force, and not choice...that will forever sting, and hurt my pride, and I fucking HATE George W. Bush for making it happen!
