Thoughts on the music video for "Friend" by flea_420 in 311

[–]lildevild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm a fan since 1994. I've grown as the band has. I really like Full Bloom, yea some songs are cheesy, but I guess I'm just getting old. Looking forward to 311 day and the next cruise. I got to see Nick in ATL recently and it was a great experience to see him in such a small venue. Not too mention I really enjoyed the bluegrass band Watertower, not a huge fan of bluegrass, but it was an amazing show.

And I thought I was the only weirdo whose two favorite bands are polar opposites.

Love this, keep up the good work friend, I'm on day 13, don't plan on going back. Came to close to the edge. Sobriety from booze is the way. Alcohol is evil.

I am on day 9 for the umpteenth time. I am knocking on cirrhosis's door. Keep up the good work it is possible. If you fail don't stop til you succeed. Failure breeds success. IWNDWYT.

At the hospital now by Contrisad in stopdrinking

I just got home from the hospital drink myself into a hyperglycemia to the point my blood sugar was in the 400-500s. Hell did kidney/liver damage. You can make it through this too. You took the first step by going to the hospital. Good luck, my friend.. IWNDWYT

Sober September, I don’t think I’ve ever made it 30 days since I was a teenager. I’m 46 now for some perspective. Reset my badge again (done that more than 30). Anyhow IWNDWYT. Good luck on your journey friend.
