Thanks for asking. I . . . um. . . miscounted. There are 10 beers left in the frige not counting the one I’m pouring. This is very disheartining. But then again, it’s only 5:30.

Hey, Bruce\_Daddy, you drunk yet?

When I´m drunk I tend to sing “The Hurdy Gurdy Man”… such an annoying habit now that I think of it…

Dear Drunk Guy,

Is the interior of your toilet clean?

That’s pretty good. The song I have in my head is “Sometimes when we touch” by Dan Hill. I went outside to smoke a second ago but I don’t think I’ll do that again since it’s fucking hot and that makes me want to throw up.

No it’s not. It has a black ring around the water mark that I use as a target when pissing. Next question. . .

Hey, I just noticed you’re in Greenville. My dad’s in Greenville, too. Maybe you know him.

Maybe you _are_ him. Dad?..

You know, Bruce, my very first post here was going to be, ‘Make sure to drink plenty of water,’ but I thought, no, he’s a big boy, he knows that.

‘Some times When We Touch’? Gawd.

Remember this tomorrow; chicks find clean bathrooms much more attractive than sappy love songs.

Hang in there, honey; you can do it.  
You shouldn’t, but you can.

In and out list:

Ok. There are 8 full Bud Lights left. It’s a bit past 6p, so I think the light at the end of the tunnel is visable. Is anybody else watching **Apollo 13** on the History Channel?

Dear Dad,

I know your birthday’s a couple of months away yet, but I just feel like I have to tell you something.

I know I’m sort of tight with my feelings, but I want you to know I’m proud of you. You always taught me to see every project through-- to never quit.

Keep up the good work, dad. You’re the best.

Love,  
Your little Happy  
P.S. Drink lots of water

P.P.S. And send money.

Dear son,

Sorry about cutting your hand off. I’m sure we can “patch things up” someday.

May the force be with you.  
Daddy.

**Apollo 13** - well, you have convinced me to turn on my TV for the first time today (impressive, since it’s 6 pm).

It took me 15 freaking minutes to find the History channel!! I think I need a drink now.

Well, some chicks do anyway. I’d go gaga over a guy who didn’t care about the state of his bathroom and adored sappy love songs myself.

Still awake, **Bruce\_Daddy**?

Dear Drunk Daddy,

What do you say to a girl who you were trying to impress that you’ve just puked on? Is it a) “I don’t remember having carrots for lunch!”, or is it b) “So I guess you’ll hafta take your clothes off now, huh?”

Please help me. I always seem to use the wrong line on the wrong girl.

Regards,  
Horseflesh

I took a bit of a nap and now they’re talking about Wild Bill Hitchcock on the tele. Or maybe this is a bad dream.

The taste in my mouth is not exactly wanting of a beer, but we’ll see. . .
