19. I had a little problem too

Mon Dec 24, 2012, 09:49 PM

Dec 2012

One day I went to the bar where everyone hung out and did lines and sold and bought. This day was different. Nobody had any. People didn't say hello, how are you, they said, "ya holdin" and if you said no, they'd leave without even saying goodbye.

That's what did it for me.
