[@leven4774]

i’ll def talk to my “doctor” about switching my ritalin to ambien, i’ve been wanting to swap my “prescription” for a while now and this was exactly what i needed to hear. maybe while im at the “doctors office” i’ll have her take a look at my foot, six of my toes have fallen off since i started working the concession stand at my hometown football stadium… probs no big deal but my dad always told me to get ahead of my problems or get out of his house.
