Yes, its true. I’m breaking up with Toronto. For all the cold winters and hot hot summers you give me, I don’t think it will be enough to satisfy my hunger for life. You’ve given me a couple bad relationships and I think its more than enough to tip me off to leave. But you also helped me grow up, living in a city, starting off with 3 friends and leaving with more than 300.
Nothing personal really, just trying to move on.
Not too long ago, I got my best friend Dee to deposit a cheque to my account. I’m reluctant to let my mom do it cuz she’ll deposit some $$ and then make me feel guilty about it. I’m very hesitant to have any help from her because she doesn’t want me to move again. She’s worried, as mothers often are. But i’m doing it. Fuck ya, I’m doing it!!! Anyways, in addition to the cheque that was deposited, I saw an extra few bux put in there – I called Dee up and asked her if she put anymore. She replied and told me, “That’s all I had in my wallet, so I just gave what I could”. I started sniffling cuz she knows I’m not in the best situation trying to do everything on my own. I can’t wait to see her, gawd I love her so much and she’s been with me thru it all. Hopefully she’ll make her way down to this end of the world when I’m all settled.
Gonna grab a bite now – i’m sick and I almost overdosed on cough syrup last night. (Lawrence, can u share on the repercussions of overdosing on cough DM syrup?)

[gawds itsv sooo hard to type with nail extensions!!!! hahaha]

Hey Sarah,
Good on ya, for keepin on keepin on. A change of location, a change of pace a few years keeps us alive and fresh. Sure it's challenging and energy sapping at times, but growth and honing of the spirit with the cheese grater of life is always a good thing in the end. Bleed a little, just use some neosporin and prevent infection and scars.
As long as you survived the OD of the cough syrup, there should be no lasting effects. During the acute phase of DM cough syrup overdose, respiratory depression would likely be the most immediate danger (decreased breathing drive/sedation). In, short if you're breathing now, you're OK. Don't worry, you won't like grow a unibrow or hairy palms or something sexy like that.
