Last night we went to Chickie Wah Wah to hear Evan and the trio play, only the trio was minus James Singleton (sadly) and plus a guitar player and other bass player and later two young Japanese musicians. One of the Japanese musicians was a young very cute girl who had a tee shirt that said “Living Well is the Best Thing” – and today after conversing with a friend about our adoption taking a turn for the worse, my friend said of the father, “What an egotistical asshole! Addicts can be so fucking selfish!!!! COÑO.”
Well, that is the tee shirt that I will sport – ADDICTS CAN BE SO FUCKING SELFISH – I need to get one made right away. Since I’ve spent my life the daughter of, wife of, sister of, friend of an addict, I am here to tell the world that that my dear is the real truth – ADDICTS CAN BE SO FUCKING SELFISH.
But back to the innocence of the tee shirt the young Japanese clarinetist had on – in the end that is really all you can fall back on – living well – even in the face of adversity.
