It's amazing how some nights two beer can get me buzzed and others half a bottle of rye and 4 shots of home-made moonshine kahlua does it. Weird that.
Family parties are always fun, if not ever so slightly oddball in nature...
I have run into a hurdle. In my life I have not encountered a challenge that I could not overcome. I have always found a way to succeed or bypass a challenge so that failure was not a pre-eminent outcome. Finding an alternative way out of the maze is not a failure to encounter the exit; it is usurping the inevitable and presumed outcome. I have made a life of avoiding failure by thinking beyond it and finding alternatives.
I've come to a point where I can see an inevitable failure and I cannot ascertain a definitive way to avoid it. In my life I've made many mistakes, some horrendously natured... but I've never failed. Thus, my current situation has me somewhat perplexed.
Something new for me... I am unsure of how to deal with it.
