I'm afraid to say that the last few days have been a bit of a blur. I don't think I have ever done so much drinking as I have in the last month.

	Good for you! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-02 10:42 pm UTC (link)
	Is it? Haha. I feel it is a very strange way to start off a fresh year. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cosmiccastaway 2013-01-02 10:43 pm UTC (link)
	It's not a bad way. I mean, obviously you shouldn't spend the whole year drunk, but enjoying yourself for a couple days isn't a bad thing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-02 10:47 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, you're probably right. Nothing is too bad in moderation, after all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cosmiccastaway 2013-01-02 10:48 pm UTC (link)
	Exactly! But make sure none of your friends uploaded anything to YouTube. That kind of thing happens sometimes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-02 10:56 pm UTC (link)
	... That would be horrendous. Luckily, I only get talkative when I'm drunk, and having someone chatter about expense reports probably isn't youtube worthy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cosmiccastaway 2013-01-02 10:57 pm UTC (link)
	Probably not, no. You're an accountant, then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-02 10:59 pm UTC (link)
	Not exactly. I do more clerical work than anything -- but I'm fairly good with numbers, and so tend to get picked for general book balancing often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cosmiccastaway 2013-01-02 11:30 pm UTC (link)
	Where do you work? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-02 11:45 pm UTC (link)
	Stark Industries, currently. But I am hoping for a bit of a career change this year. You? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cosmiccastaway 2013-01-03 04:50 am UTC (link)
	I'm going to be running my own shop in January. I can't wait for it to open! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 06:44 am UTC (link)
	Oh? That's very exciting. What kind of shop? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cosmiccastaway 2013-01-03 05:37 pm UTC (link)
	A medical marijuana dispensary and craft store. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 08:41 pm UTC (link)
	That's... varied. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	tiniestweasley 2013-01-02 11:24 pm UTC (link)
	I am actually kind of proud of you. Surprised and proud. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-02 11:43 pm UTC (link)
	I'm not sure if I should be happy about that or not. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tiniestweasley 2013-01-03 12:04 am UTC (link)
	Means you lightened up a little and had some fun. It's good for you once in a while. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 12:05 am UTC (link)
	People keep telling me that. I wonder why... (That was a joke. Sorry.) (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tiniestweasley 2013-01-03 01:54 pm UTC (link)
	Haha. It's still good for you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 08:40 pm UTC (link)
	Maybe. Except for the headache. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 02:12 am UTC (link)
	Word of advice, might want to pace yourself. If you're not used to it, the drink can really knock you on your arse. I know from experience. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 02:14 am UTC (link)
	Yes, I think I have gotten to that part of it. I am, admittedly, a bit of a lightweight. I think I'm done with drinking like that for a very long while. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 02:26 am UTC (link)
	Never said you needed to stop. Just pace yourself. I probably shouldn't be drinking anymore, myself, but it's pretty hard to give up completely. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 02:30 am UTC (link)
	I'm not completely stopping. Just... avoiding doing it with reckless abandon from now on. And oh? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 02:43 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. Just did a stint in rehab for drug and alcohol abuse. Kicked the drugs bit, but still working on the alcohol. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 02:45 am UTC (link)
	Oh, goodness. I'm sorry. That was an intrusive question on my part. I do hope you are doing well, though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 03:00 am UTC (link)
	Not intrusive when it was all over the media. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 03:01 am UTC (link)
	Oh. I'm sorry-- I guess I don't recognize you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 03:07 am UTC (link)
	Not really surprised. I get recognized more by women. Name's Mitchell. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 03:10 am UTC (link)
	Oh, some kind of... teen heart-throb, are you? If it makes you feel any better for my faux pas, basically only my family ever recognizes me. I'm Percy, by the way. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 03:14 am UTC (link)
	Sort of. I was on X-Factor in the UK a few years ago. Had a bit of Rock Star status since. Nice to meet you, Percy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 03:16 am UTC (link)
	Oh, right! I moved away from England before that ever began airing on telly. But I have certainly heard of it. A singer, then. A pleasure, indeed! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 03:20 am UTC (link)
	I'd only watched it once myself, before I was on it. Never seen the US version. I sing, play guitar and write. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 03:23 am UTC (link)
	I've never seen it myself, then again, I'm not much of a reality-TV-enthusiast. Well, if you don't mind me saying it, it already seems like you're steps ahead of most American musicians, then. At least the well known ones. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 03:33 am UTC (link)
	Can't stand other reality shows. Maybe before I got sidelined with the whole rehab thing. Not to mention, I'm currently without management. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 03:43 am UTC (link)
	They're not for everyone, that's for sure. Not to be intrusively stalkerish, but I felt the need to google you. You seem quite good. From what I understand, this is probably a good place to be to catch a break. There are quite a few actors/models/musicians on Valarnet, so perhaps it is just a matter of talking to the right people? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 03:52 am UTC (link)
	Isn't that what google is for though? To stalk people? And thanks for that. Yeah, I'm hoping I'll be able to find a better manager than the last. The whole rehab thing came about because of him, more or less. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 03:57 am UTC (link)
	I suppose that's true. But I'd like to think I'm not as creepy as all that. Seems unfortunate; but I'm sure with any luck you'll do just fine. Perhaps you should talk to my little sister Ginny; she's an actress. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	being_mitchell 2013-01-03 04:18 am UTC (link)
	Don't worry, I've met creepier people over the last couple of years. Ginny Weasley? Name sounds familiar. I'll look her up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	analretentive 2013-01-03 04:19 am UTC (link)
	That's heartening, anyway. Yes, she does a show on Disney, I believe. (Reply to this) (Parent)
