    I have to say my biggest life regret was shutting down my movie criticism website that I had a decade ago, with over 1,000 reviews on it, because bourbon was more important to me at the time. My mother told me it was a great thing I shut that website down. That was one of the lowest points in my life.

    I've lost my way, too. But, you can go forward as yourself, from there. And Happy Birthday :)

    Happy B-day. Life's road is paved with regrets. But we can change that. And look at how far you have come. You have new goals. You have new things to work torwards.

    I am now officially 45, most of that time was wasted. I need a new sports car, trophy husband, a gym trainer to make me look glamorous.

    My spouse and I are pretty taciturn until we need to make a decision. Sometimes I just go along because I trust her choices.

    The car I take out on track days is a 2001 Toyota MR2 Spyder, with safety improvements and a 2ZZ-GE powerplant. May not be blazing fast, but it is a joy to take out to the track.

    You still have plenty of time, sir. But spending it telling yourself about all these bad things over and over again is not exactly doing you any good. You gotta break this cycle at some point.

    Reading news media is making me want to obliterate all of my feelings. Stirring up division to maximize profits. It always has been this way. Nobody can be trusted.

    Why read it? You already know what it's going to be, because it's always been that way. Reading that and getting agitated and giving more engagement is just what they want. No need to give them that and mess with your mental health. Maybe it's time to dump it?

    I want summer to come so I can host BBQs at my house for my friends. Sober BBQs where the only beer is root and the only ale is ginger.

    Two days from now, I will officially be 45. I'm getting older than dirt. I'm becoming an ancient relic of the '80s.

    Hey, welcome to my side, well wait, you still are pretty young. Happy early B-day.

    I need to buy new shoes with better support for my feet. I will make that costly investment tomorrow. Shoes over movies and games. Better financial handling.

    I took a dose of Turmeric and swallowed it with some 100% tart cherry juice an hour ago. Now I am able to walk again.

    I am still totally pissed off. Not much I can do about that. I wonder if I could have said something differently to him, but he made his choice, so damn him.

    It makes sense to wonder if you could have changed things, but this is not your fault in any way. Thoughts about what you could have done differently will creep in - this is just one of the heavy burdens that those who lose someone to suicide get stuck with. It is part of what makes it so hard for those who are left living. It is part of why we can feel angry when someone we care about takes their life.

    Sorry for your anger that you are feeling. Sorry that he took his life. This was sad. On so many different levels. I hope you forgive him.

    Now my knee pain has gone down, and I have intense pain on the sole of my left foot. If it is not one thing, it is another and it never seems to end.

    Gout "travels". Have you drowned yourself in organic black cherry juice yet? One simple way to speed up recovery. Sounds like you are still consuming purines that are going to give you such problems. Even symptoms of Metatarsalgia can involve gout in the soles of your feet.

    Oh boy. Sorry to read this.

    Suicide is the one sin God does not forgive. I hate that I now lost two people I knew to that route. Why do some people have to be that damn selfish?

    They lose sight of all reality, I think.

    @Mr. Stevens It pretty well is a majority that. I know my thoughts, in the past, went that direction because of my insesent want to be anything but alive. I lost sight of reality and any sense of belonging to anything.

    Suicide frees the one who takes their life, but leaves the rest of us to bear the sorrow, the confusion, the anger, and the desperation. It is very difficult to be the one left living.

    I just found out a friend of mine who I was worried about due to his mental health issues is dead. He most likely did something stupid.

    Sad.

    I agree with Aspychata, very sad. It's very difficult to lose ones we care about in this way.

    I feel like going to the mini mart next door to my office and buying something high in sugar and low in nutritional value. That would be counterproductive to my plans to keep losing weight, however.

    Are you feeling stressed, or depressed perhaps? Are you reaching for food for covering up some feelings?

    I am feeling like I need to replace beer with another vice, frankly.

    Okay, l get that.

    Thanks to everybody here. I needed to vent, you all let me vent. Now it is time for me to focus on solutions instead of the problem.
