I called my brother Sean today and I said, “Hey, so what do you do when you still feel like shit, even though you feel like you shouldn’t feel like shit anymore, and you are bored of feeling shitty and you don’t know what else to do?” I asked him this because he has been through a long, horrible, ridiculous divorce, and although my situation is nothing like his, I know he will empathize. “Well,” he said, “I got drunk for a year.” “Yeah,” I answered, ” I’m already working on that. What else? What else can I do to not feel like shit?” And he said, “Well, I don’t recommend getting drunk for a year, but just know that I don’t think it’s boring, and you can talk to me whenever you want.”
