Black Tar Herion or Sleeping Pills?

Friday, September 23, 2005:
Why do men want what they can't have? Is it some kind of sick obsession to be able to conquer women? I find that if I treat Mike like crap, don't take his calls, don't answer the door when he comes over, etc., then he tries that much harder. I have 16 text messages from him, ranging from "I love you" to "I'm coming over, be naked." UGH!

Mom and I got into some deep conversations today. First, I did not realize that you could overdose on Tylenol. I was watching some show on cable about this guy who took 200 Tylenol. OK, so I don't have that long of an attention span to be able to swallow that many pills. Plus, by the time I would be done, I'd have to pee like a race horse. Yes, my bladder is the size of Texas, but I can't drink that much water and not have to pee. A lot.

We also talked about Eminem and his addiction to sleeping pills. Again, I didn't realize you could get addicted to those. I thought that it meant you took them and slept all the time. Nope. It means you can't sleep without them. I told her that was kind of a wuss addiction. Vicodin I can see because it makes you not give a f*ck what goes on. It's the same way with Xanax. If someone at work, or Mike gets me pissed enough, I pop one and I could care less what anyone does. They could even come and mess up my office and I wouldn't care. OK, that's a lie because as Kim pointed out today, everything in there is extremely neat. Anne used to purposely make things crooked because I hate to have anything not in perfect order. But I digress.
I told mom that if I had an addiction to sleeping pills and I was famous like Em, then I would have had my publicist lie and say I was addicted to black tar heroin. At least he could keep his street cred that way. Sleeping pills! My god, get a real addiction. What happened to the tackle box he supposedly carried around with all kinds of drugs? Coming from the 8 Mile trailer park and the best you can do is sleeping pills? 50 Cent at least has a mouth full of lead. Em, he takes one too many Ambien. Oh, well, I still love him. I would let him eat crackers in my bed any day.

Ciao,
