It has been touted as the recipe for freedom and liberation. It seems for me it just keeps me sane.

To explain–I realized the other night that there are a few things the quell my anxious mind: fantasies and the sometime reality (Sex), a regular and calming drink (Drugs), and headphones filled with soothing or distracting sonic pleasures (“Rock & Roll” and then some…).

These pallatives have lead to the death of some other, perhaps more talented, individuals. And they’ve entertained generations. Some days I just hope they get me to 30.
