(Surimi): Elizabeth Taylor stipulated in her will that she be late for her own funeral. Well, Jim is or was late for the funeral of his old self. But no real funeral could ever be held because his old self lies forever dormant within him.
His "sweet insanity" calmly embedded in his brain, patiently waits for him to pick up. No matter how long his new self moves forward in sobriety, it waits.
I don't think "normies" can ever appreciate the enormousness of what is in an alcoholic's brain, drinking or not, sober or not, sweetly insane or not.
from All Drinking Aside (Rough Draft, Day 80)
Spot on with knowing what the "normies" don't know.
