Code,
As much as a mid-life crisis this may be, I sense quite a bit of positivity coming from you. Just the sheer fact that you can see the good through all of those crazy things going on in your life (past and present) shows you that there is even more good to come. You taking the time to pause and anecdote is a necessary reality to keep yourself level.
Stay strong, vent when necessary, and try to remember that you are never given more than you can handle...you are lucky to have those that do care for you.

PS - I still think you are God.

Damn, brother.
I think we all have those moments, as old bastards. Find yourself drunk on a late afternoon, wondering what the hell it was for, and hating yourself because you can't find an answer.
Nice thing is that if we've made it this long, we're too tough to die.

I think my woe and troubles have been documented here pretty well.
A lot of you have offered a helping hand and kind words.
Hang in there, code. You're a great guy!
I no longer drink and my lifenis better. Than it has ever been.
It's still a struggle, but I try to remain positive!
Rock on, code!

My friend and brother,
I just came back after a bit of a layoff myself.
Went away when I went into rehab with the VA, about 2 years ago.
Lost not 1, not 2, but three very mediocre jobs cooking with successfully downgrading employers.
(BTW, I earned my culinary degree in 1992)
I get it.
As the song said, "we've all got bruises". That doesn't mean we were wrong, or bad, or guilty. It is just the effect of having the courage to do what we see what needs to be done, going for it, and not having the best of partners to see it through.
I guess it points to the truism "there are no atheists in foxholes".
I do wish you all the best, and my hope is that we can help each other till the end.
This may sound redundant, but I wish for you nothing but what you have earned, and deserve.
Please enjoy, if only for you and yours,
Alan
