I’ve been struggling with anxiety for decades. It’s painful. It affects my mood. It’s probably one of the main factors that ended my first marriage in hindsight. It’s very likely it’s what caused me to drink heavily, resulting in horrible liver factors and possibly the cause of my diabetes.
For me, anxiety has me on edge 24/7.
Going off of Xanax has been a life-changing experience. My psychiatrist prescribed it for anxiety, and I mostly used it at nighttime to help me sleep. I wasn’t abusing it per se, but I took it nightly. I was on the 2MG tablets, which is the highest dose.
For starters, let’s get into why I was taken off Xanax in the first place.

I quit my WordPress-related job at the beginning of the year. Maybe I’m old fashioned, but remote work just didn’t work out for me. I’d definitely like to try it again, but for the time-being, I prefer a good ol’ office job.
The book is non-fiction, and is a semi-autobiographical take on the movie Fight Club.
I recently received the proof (today actually!), so it is only a matter of weeks before this thing is released to everyone.
It is already available for digital download at https://assholetax.es.
As I was driving to work this morning, I caught a glimpse of Oklahoma Christian University‘s tribute to September 11th, 2001.
Apparently, this tribute is held twice a year: on the anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing and the anniversary of September 11th.
My sister even called me today from Afghanistan and asked how I was remembering September 11th.
When I first heard of the Monumentour with headliners Paramore and Fall Out Boy, I jumped at the chance to buy tickets. The earliest I could buy them was in January, and I saw there were Meet and Greet VIP passes available, so I splurged to finally have a chance to meet the members of Paramore.
Thankfully the tour was coming to Oklahoma City, so I snapped up tickets for August 10th at the Zoo Amphitheatre.
I snapped this a few days ago. It’s a picture of a Norwegian version of Domino’s pizza (based in the U.S.). They have no affiliation.
The locals tell me the pizza is crap, just like the U.S. version.
As an uncle with three nieces, this disturbs me. I’ve been contemplating redirecting that post to an even harsher post.
I’ve even had people e-mail me lambasting me for the post and calling me a pedophile.
“When was the last time you slept?”
