12/01 (7:00-10:30) Editing audio

So I have been editing audio this evening, and thought I would take a break and call my friend, since I have not talked to her in a few days. No one answered, but then she called right back. Something sounded really wrong…after a few moments, either due to my silence or through her own realization of difficulty in forming words. She realized that I could not understand her and disclosed that she had taken a few Somas to help her sleep……………………………………I don’t know what to say………….but I can’t hang up, because I know that she called me back because she wanted to talk, or to just hear my voice……….So I go on about complex sugars and how they expend at a slower and more consistent rate, and blah, blah, blah………………..I really hope this is one of those times that can be filed in the “stupid things that I’ve done and lived to tell about”. I’m trying not to be freaked out, but COME ON—OPIATES or NOT chill out on the pills. She’s dropped a significant amount of weight in all of this and how much can ones body take? I hate this, I really do. It’s so scary and to be honest and selfish, we’ve got plans to do things. It’s supposed to be different, please tell that it will.
