  • I wonder if this is something that changed over time. As in preservatives and all sorts of chemicals being added to tobacco or alcohol. For example, I can smoke Japanese cigarettes without a problem. I’ve smoked Vietnam era MRE cigarettes, Old Ukrainian unfiltered cigarettes. But I can’t smoke US made ones since around 2007, they make me sick and taste like ash.



  • I was going to get married, we disagreed on having children; I wasn’t against it and I wanted to be financially stable beforehand. I also didn’t want to be solely responsible for finances either. I had already been working hard while someone wasn’t in half of the relationship. Taking care of bills, transportation, cooking, cleaning, doing laundry for two, so on and so forth. I felt like I was solo leveling life for two after a few years. I didn’t want to get myself deeper in this mess. We met in college and dated for about 6 years. at that point I said, no thank you.

    After that I ended up working in education. That’s when I chose not to have children.

    One day we go on a field trip to an ice skating rink, I took care of this little girl as she was smaller than the rest. Skates on, helmet on, and I held her hand while we skated in the center so she didn’t get hurt. And I thought huh this might not so bad. On the way back she told me how her daddy thought it was funny to hit her. So there’s my first CPS report. There was only horror story after horror story after that. I got heavy into drinking because I couldn’t fathom how people could do the things, I won’t write about, to kids.

    That shit still haunts me everyday over a decade later. So I’m happy being single and not having children. Also in this economy? lol
