I&#8217;m sure you know what I&#8217;m talking about.<\/p>\n<p>I looked on my Dad&#8217;s phone, I mean.  Yeah, ok.  And of course I overhear stuff that people say in this house all the time, of course.  Guys, I&#8217;m not an addict.  Seriously.  I mean I joke on here a lot about that but I&#8217;m not, I mean, at least not that KIND of addict.  I&#8217;m not.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m kinda sick of hearing what people say about me behind my back.  Because I can hear things, you know.  In fact I have super-enhanced hearing, lol.  Guys&#8230; seriously.  I&#8217;m in no danger of&#8230; overdosing.  Or dying.  I&#8217;m not.  I&#8217;m smart, probably the smartest guy out there.  I&#8217;m smarter than you guys even understand, really.<\/p>\n<p>I have toyed with those ideas, though.  Yeah this is about more drug stuff, so feel free to not read this if you don&#8217;t want to.  In fact, go right ahead and not read this, please.  I mean I wouldn&#8217;t be putting this up here if I could express myself some other way, I think.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll need to do that, later.  I&#8217;m sure I will.<\/p>\n<p>So&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Well&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I know where I am in the process.  At least I think I do- I think I&#8217;m on &#8220;the precipice&#8221;, basically, the line that separates a &#8220;healthy&#8221; addict and one that has fully given in to their addictions to the point where they&#8230; seriously make a break from society in some way to feed their addictions.  I mean, I&#8217;ve already overdosed about a half dozen times at least, so I&#8217;m well past the point of the drugs doing damage.  But I&#8217;m still within the middle-class bubble I&#8217;ve always lived in.  <\/p>\n<p>Thus far.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m considering a lot these days.  Weighing a lot, researching a lot.  Following this or that lead, trying out this or that idea.<\/p>\n<p>IDK.  I don&#8217;t &#8220;work&#8221;, don&#8217;t have a job, and spend all day in my room, reluctant to leave, save to do things that lead to my possibly getting high.  And, truly, getting high is my raison d&#8217;etre for living, sometimes.  But with that being said, I haven&#8217;t&#8230; truly flipped.  I mean, I can substitute hardcore narcotics with magical simulations, I guess, lol.  But that wouldn&#8217;t be the real thing.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know, I&#8217;ve written on here before about my&#8230; desire for heroin.  I mean, I know where to get it, of course.  Even I&#8217;m not <em>that <\/em>isolated, lol.  This area may be &#8220;middle class&#8221;, meaning, top 10% of the population, income wise, but that isn&#8217;t near enough to have a neighborhood without some obvious dealers.  Unfortunately, they recently took the life of a kid (heroin overdose) down the street.  So, yeah, I know they&#8217;re here.  They congregate in the park after dark, around midnight or so, and sell their narcotics there to the kids and such in the neighborhood.  Don&#8217;t worry, they&#8217;re white, so they&#8217;re safer to deal with.  And I have guns of my own, so no danger to me.<\/p>\n<p>But still, yikes.<\/p>\n<p>Scary, at least to me.  Creepy shit.  I don&#8217;t know.  Like usual these days, I saw some documentaries about narcotics addiction on youtube this weekend.  They&#8217;re&#8230; all the same, mostly.  But I guess I need to be re-introduced to the stuff I need to avoid, so as to not forget.  <\/p>\n<p>My drug of choice is fentanyl.  I LOVE that stuff, it is beautiful&#8230; wait, no, it isn&#8217;t, lol.  But yeah that one is by far my favorite.  And yes I am well aware of how dicey it can be to get that stuff on the street, and how dangerous it can be.  It&#8217;s like, each dose of that stuff on the streets is it&#8217;s own game of russian roulette.  Even a small amount off on the dosage, and you die.  Scary shit.  I guess that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m thinking about heroin, instead.  Because it would be&#8230; safer?  At least, it would be much less unpredictable.  <\/p>\n<p>But yikes, though.  Ugh.  Heroin.  I&#8217;m still middle class enough to get chills even hearing the word.  They really did a number on me during those middle school health classes, lol.  But&#8230; I don&#8217;t know.  Once in a while, right?  Not terrible.  Easily survivable for a young man like me.  Right?  I mean I have so much experience with narcotics now, having taken them so much in the last few years that I can figure that shit out, no problem.  Just a bit to take the edge off.  Not an issue.<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know.  Fentanyl is&#8230; scary stuff, when it turns on you.  Reeeeeeeally frightening.  Heroin shouldn&#8217;t be&#8230; that much better, though, I wouldn&#8217;t think.  Hmmmn, I don&#8217;t know.  <\/p>\n<p>I mean, I&#8217;m a genius, right?  So, nothing to worry about.  Right?  -ish?<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know, it&#8217;s still scary.  And it probably doesn&#8217;t help that I can hear Kathryn Newton telling me right now that I&#8217;m being an idiot, lol.  But still&#8230; I&#8217;m a member of Mensa, right?  And that was like <em>easy <\/em>for me.  This should be no problem.<\/p>\n<p>Um&#8230; is this just a lot of words to justify something incredibly stupid?  That&#8217;s probably what Kathryn would say.  And&#8230; would she be right?<\/p>\n<p>I mean, so okay, why <em>am <\/em>I doing this?  Writing this all out, I mean.  Am I trying to convince myself not to?  Or am I trying to tell myself this so I can outline the dangers now, so as to avoid them when I finally go for it?  <\/p>\n<p>I&#8230; don&#8217;t know.  I do know that when I imagined myself 20 years ago at 40 years of age, being a heroin addict was not on the list of possibilities, lol.  But then again, being the boyfriend of half the chicks in Hollywood wasn&#8217;t, either.  And <em>that <\/em>didn&#8217;t turn out so bad.  But&#8230; then again, you wouldn&#8217;t think something like that would.  Heroin addiction?  Yeah, that kind of tragedy pretty much writes itself.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8230; don&#8217;t know.  I just don&#8217;t.  See, I REEEEEALLY want to at least try it, now.  At least once.  Like, I really want to, lol.  Uhmmm though, I want to do <em>A LOT<\/em> of things.  Some of which I prolly should, lol.<\/p>\n<p>Uhhmmmm, I don&#8217;t know. I would be careful if I was to try.  I know it.  Very careful.  I&#8217;m so sure of it.  So sure.  Um, right.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I REALLY need another hit.  I&#8217;ll take it, and make it a big one, and plan out tomorrow.  Should be fun, I need to try out some Christmas presents I&#8217;ll be getting this year.<\/p>\n<p>Neat.  So, I think I&#8217;ll wrap this post up, then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Um&#8230; so&#8230; well, I found the texts. Yeah.
