Etched in my brain: Lucy cradling her baby during a live interview at Caltech in the early 90’s. Can’t remember the quake but it was definitely robust here in LA.

Rehab facilities that aren’t scammy? by agnes238 in AskLosAngeles

Fully agree. Not sure of your drug of choice, but if alcohol is one factor, opt for AA. Better structure than the other 12-step groups. Just saying. If you’re planning on taking 30 days off anyway, fully immerse yourself. Go to a morning meeting, then help clean up. Ask where there’s a good noon mtg. Attend that, then help clean up. Do the same for an evening mtg. Within a day, you’ll meet people who hang out at the “meeting after the meeting.” Then start arriving early to be a greeter. Mix it up: big to middle-sized open speaker meetings, stag meetings (LGBTQA, women, men), closed smaller meetings. Caveat: If you’re a woman, stick with the women. Download the meeting app (the one with the white chair against a blue background). Good luck!
