EE Yesko III on the Other Side of the
The Life of a Drunk
Is not carefully planned
Or very complicated
It’s mostly routine
2:00 p.m.
Wake up
Look out the window and make sure
nobody fucked with your car
2:05
Take a piss
crack the curtain and
see if the mailman came
Retrieve the mail
discard all, except grocery circular
these always look better than an empty fridge
2:10
After stoically holding it for 10 minutes
vomit into toilet on top of piss (flush both together, to save water)
2:12
Light a cigarette
2:12 – 2:17
Smoke it
2:17ish
Get back in bed and watch soaps
4:00
Shave and take a shower
don’t bother brushing your teeth, toothpaste will make you gag
get the major chunks out with floss
4:25
Assess the money situation
coins vs. hard currency
4:26
Decide which you can go without today
food or smokes
6:30
After debating forever
choose the liquor store that offers the least embarrassment
based on your financial situation
If you’re like me, you’ll have to break it up
one store for the smokes
the other for the booze
Don’t worry about the food, you’ve got the circular, remember
6:40
Back home
rip open that brown paper bag
crack a beer
Smile
You should
Were going to do this all over again
Tomorrow
