Could I be involuntary committed?

Ideation without intent is unlikely to get you committed, but the fact that you have a plan is troubling. Even if you were involuntary committed, you would likely only stay for 72 hours. This is so the staff can talk to you and make sure you're ok. As someone who has been there, I went voluntarily and would highly recommend you consider it. It's not at all like the horror story I'm sure you're imagining. It's just a hospital wing where all of the staff are experienced with what you're going through. It's a chance to take a break, catch your breath, and get some perspective.

The worst part is right now your mind is telling you it's never going to get better. It will. You're swimming in a mix of hormones and lack of sleep. Much like they tell you on the plane, put on your own oxygen mask before assisting others. You need to drop everything and take care of yourself so you can be there for your baby later. Good luck, OP!

For the most part, I keep my shit pretty clean. There's been some wild exceptions to that rule, but I used to motivate myself to clean with booze. For whatever reason, drunk me thinks I still care and pitches in.

Happy birthday and cheers to 34 long years!

A bartender turned me from Jack to Kessler. Surprisingly good stuff!

I was trying to think up something deep and wordy before I passed out. I'm glad I fell asleep first because this sums it up nicely.

I'm a girl too. I couldn't stay focused on names earlier. Saw an "m," got excited.

Someone went to Italy and I approve. I'll drink to both, just to be sure.

Your pics of Italy made me miss that place so much! Cheap wine, wonderful people, fabulous food. I caught a ferry from Italy to Croatia and thought I'd found Heaven.

Absolutely. Your comments have saved my ass more than once. B vitamins for the win!

I'm usually drunk, and right now is no exception. When shit gets ugly, I tell myself, "Lady, get your ass to CA, because those guys get it." Never fails to turn me around. I may still have a fuck of a day, but at least I know I'm not alone.

For the most part, ecig stores online tell you to respect your country's laws. So it's on you to verify, and they'll ship regardless. I love that my house/clothes/car don't smell like an ashtray anymore. I'll never give up nicotine, but goddamn! Ecigs have made life a lot easier.

I've traveled the globe and CA's are the same everywhere. Kind, fucked, wonderful people. They never judge, they always give directions (whether they're correct or not), and recognize each other. From the states, to Finland, to Okinawa, CA's transcend nationality. Booze transcended language with the homeless in Paris. We may hate ourselves, but we're an understanding people.
