Bad habits
Yes, I'm Autistic. Yes, I sometimes Hit Mom. No, I'm not Adam Lanza.
Last Wednesday was the 10th anniversary of the Newton massacre, when a young man walked into his elementary school and shot about 20 students and a teacher. I still remember that fateful day- my late mother and I were at IHop, eating lunch right before a doctor's appointment, wondering when the hell the food would get there. Then suddenly, our waittress burst out that something terrible had happened.

The Thrill of the Steel
Let's assume we've already prepped our taste (another tale for another time) and it's in the delivery mechanism of our choosing all ready to go. Anywhere between thirty and seventy lines is a good amount using the gauge off the side of a one ml tuermo syringe. Your pulse quickens, excitement, anticipation, being really naughty and as you get closer to the face of this particular demon, a lot of things can go wrong but the most clear and present danger is the possible threat to your very mortality.

My Abusive Ex is the Reason I'm Fat

Alright, I'll admit I may have exaggerated a little in the title, just to get your attention. Did it work? In truth, always and never are far too big words for so little a confession I have to make. You see, I have a vice. Call it a downside, an indulgence, or a weakness if you prefer.
