((Note: Handwriting is round and shaky, sort of like a elementary school kid's would be. Darlene's education, while she got to her freshman year in high school, is lacking highly b/c she was mostly passed along and ignored by teachers due to a learning disability. Gotta love those rural high schools.))
'Hi, my name is Darlene, and I'm an alcoholic.'
Do you know how fucking retarded I feel saying that?
Thank fuck that Paige got me in a place that thinks twelve step is retarded, though. No 'give yourself up to a higher power.' That would require me to believe in one, so HA on that one. They still like me to admit to what my 'addiction' is every day. I hate that so much.
And I hate keeping this journal, too! It's stupid!
*sigh* So, I'm supposed to write my thoughts and feelings.
Apparently it freaked out the others in my group that I started drinking at twelve. I decided to not point out that, in my neighborhood, I was kind of a late bloomer, as far as that went. Telling those guys that I was nineteen, when most of them are at LEAST in their thirties, made them coo at me and say that I 'was still a baby.' You don't live my life and stay a baby for long, sugar lips. Sort of makes me want to hurl.
The shakes are mostly gone, though. Now it's just an occasional thing instead of pretty much constant. It's actually interesting to discover that I can play without being blitzed to hell. Sounds fucking sad, but I actually didn't think I could play without at least a few beers in me. Of course, that might have been because my hands shook so bad before my morning beer (which is apparently a sign of addiction in these circles) that I couldn't light a cigarette, much less actually pluck a string properly.
Oh, and apparently I'm also dyslexic, instead of just being stupid like my teachers in school told me I was. Interesting to know. And bi-polar, but I kind of guessed that already. I'm on meds for that, and they are hooking me up with a tutor to help with the dyslexia. The shrink also suggests I try my hand at writing lyrics. Sure, why not? I've actually got a shit ton of free time in here. Other than the groups and the scheduled meals (btw, gained a few pounds since I got here, which is probably a good thing), we don't actually have much to do.
At least I didn't get sent to Utah, right? I'm thinking of calling Lexi Wilson after I get out of here. You know, two addicts bonding and such. Well, I'd say former, but I keep getting told that you're always an addict. Whatever.
I wonder if I'll turn mean like Dave Mustaine did? |

[Feb. 9th, 2010|07:51 pm] |
1. Would you consider yourself straight, gay, bi, or something else? Why? One hundred percent straight. What can I say? I like a good meat pole. 2. Who was the first person you had sex with? When did it happen? What was it like? How well did it go? I was fourteen, high off my ass on X at a rave, and went full out with some dude that I never bothered to learn the name of. It was fun. 3. Have you ever had a same-sex experience? Who with, what was it like, and how did it go? Never had one. Been a little curious, but never had one. 4. What is your deepest, most well-hidden sexual fantasy? Would you ever try it? A threesome maybe? Sure, if the time arose, I'd give it a go. 5. What was the wildest thing you've ever done, sexually? Who was it with and when did it happen? Not get the guy's name after I was done with him. And it happens a lot, to tell the truth. 6. Is there any sexual activity that you enjoy and/or practice regularly that can be considered non-standard? (Bondage, Fantasy Play, etc.) Why do you like it? I'm really not sure. I take someone home when I want it, but I don't exactly go after it all the time, you know? Guess I still don't really know what I want. 7. Is there any sexual activity that you will not, under any circumstances, do? Um...anything with bodily functions or whatever. 8. Do you currently have a lover? What is their name, and what is your relationship like? What are they like? Why are you attracted to them? N/A 9. What is the perfect romantic date? Date? If someone buys me a decent dinner, I'm happy. 10. Describe the perfect romantic partner for you. Not an asshole, doesn't hit me, doesn't scream at me. Really, I'm not hugely picky. Being a rock singer wouldn't suck, either. 11. Do you ever want to get married and have children? When do you see this happening? Ha! Not really. 12. What is more important - sex or intimacy? Why? *shrugs* I don't know, honestly. Tell you when I figure it out. 13. What was your most recent relationship like? Who was it with? (Does not need to be sexual, merely romantic.) I sound like something fucked up, but most of my 'relationships' don't go past more than a couple of nights. Probably have intimacy issues or something like that. 14. What's the worst thing you've done to someone you loved? Refused to tell them that I cared about them out of fear they would reject me. |

| 10 Things I Want to Change in My Life |
[Nov. 1st, 2009|03:05 pm] |
1.) Being so goddamn broke. I sometimes forgo food for beer. Probably not a sane thing, but it's true. 2.) My two best friends being fucking retards. Well, my former two best friends. Sort of burned that bridge. 3.) My mother being the fucking stupid bitch that she is. 4.) Being so goddamn crazy. Life might be a little better if I were normal. 5.) Living in a rat trap. It ain't pretty. 6.) Sometimes I wish my lead singer and I weren't in the same band. Not anything against him, but I can't fool around with someone I'm in a band with. Not after the last blow up. 7.) My deadbeat father running off. Life might have been simpler if he had stuck it out. Then again, could have been a lot worse. 8.) I wish my hands didn't shake when I didn't drink. 9.) Wouldn't suck to have a few more sets of clothes. 10.) Or a working stove. I live out of a fucking microwave when I bother to eat! |

| 10 Things That No One Else Knows About Me |
[Oct. 31st, 2009|08:24 pm] |
1.) My real last name is Sauer. I changed it last year to Southland because I didn't want to have any more association with the bitch of a woman I left behind who calls herself my mother. 2.) My mother's been married six times...that I know of. 3.) Her last soon to be husband kept giving me funny looks, and that's what made me finally run off from home. 4.) I don't know my father. Never met the guy. 5.) I sort of have a crush on my band's lead singer, but I'd never fuck up band dynamics by doing anything about it. 6.) If I'm sober for too long, my hands shake so bad that I can barely function, much less do anything like play guitar. 7.) I have a tattoo of an apple on my ass. Yeah, I have lots of tattoos, but that's one that doesn't get seen very often. 8.) My father is in LA, but even I don't know that. 9.) I'm an alcoholic, but everyone knows about that. 10.) I'm insane, but everyone knows that, too! |

1. What was your family like? Family? *laughs* What family? 2. Who was your father, and what was he like? Franklin. A man who knocked the bitch who birthed me up and took off. So much for romance.

I'm lucky to be spared that disaster. |
