00:17I've been social distancing for months when the shit blew out.
00:20You know how it is when you stop hanging out with your party friends,
00:24who are also your only friends.
00:30Plus, my girlfriend just broke up with me.
00:41But that's cool because I still had work to go to every day,
00:46meetings every night, working through my steps, eating fudge stripes.
00:52Then the governor shut us down since barbershops are essential.
01:00But apparently, gun stores and liquor stores are.
01:06It's supposed to be two weeks. Remember that?
01:11So the business I spent the last ten years of my life building is closed until, uh, who the fuck
01:19knows when.
01:22Then the boys at the barbershop, they stopped talking to me because I pulled the plug on them seeing customers
01:26on the sly.
01:29I'm already buried and I'll go from this.
01:32What am I supposed to do? Spread the shit around over a paycheck?
01:37So, uh, it's been rough.
01:44But, uh, mostly I'm just grateful for having 118 days when this shitnado rolled into town.
01:53Because I know what the old me would have done.
01:57I would have crawled inside a bottle of Jim Beam and rolled this shit out from in there.
02:07Now these meetings are my lifeboat.
02:13So when the seas get rough and the waves of shit water start splashing up over the deck,
02:18I know I'll be alright.
02:20Cause you all are right here with me.
02:25Thanks, Ike.
02:27Does anyone else need a raincoat?
02:31Just, just kidding.
02:33Okay, uh, well time is up, so I'm going to unmute everyone to join me in the serenity prayer.
02:41God, God, grant me serenity.
02:44There's definitely things that I cannot change.
02:47The courage to change the things that I can.
02:49And the wisdom to know the difference.
02:53Thank you, everyone.
02:55Bye-bye.
02:57Bye, Charlotte.
02:58Bye.
02:59Bye, Sally.
03:00Bye.

03:40Uh, my God.
03:43Uh...

09:45That ought to cure your COVID.
09:47Actually, I put some bleach in it, you know, just in case.

10:10Ah, how'd that go?
10:12It didn't.
10:13I hung up before she could answer.
10:18Did you know that she's already dating someone else?
10:20I'm sorry, not dating.
10:22Uh, uh, cohabitating.
10:24Doing quarantine.
10:25All right, all right, man.
10:27People don't like being alone.

10:43I mean you've got to sit next to it the whole time
10:44while I'm gone, okay?
10:45The whole time?
10:48Because that's how risotto works!
10:50Good God.
10:53Sorry, continue.
10:54Go ahead.
10:54That's stupid.
10:57Especially when so many people have actual problems, you know?
11:02You know what it's like when the only living thing
11:04you see all day is a fucking houseplant?
11:08Meanwhile, people have wives or a kid
11:11or a jacked-up, quarantined fuck buddy.
11:14Yeah.
11:16Yeah.
11:18Did I ever tell you about the...
11:20the bender that I went on after my wife left?
11:26My...
11:27My...
11:28sons were lying three and five.
11:31Oh, it was fucking epic.
11:34Middle of the night, she, she takes him, right?
11:38So...
11:40I wake up next morning, and I'm like,
11:42uh, where's my fucking family?
11:45So, I call in sick to work,
11:47I throw a case of High Life in my truck,
11:49and I, you know, spend the day
11:51driving around in circles
11:53around her parents' neighborhood.
11:56And it, it, it did not get me my kids back,
11:59but it did get me a restraining order and a DUI.
12:07Sounds rough, man.
12:14I just wish, uh, I just wish Raquel could see me.
12:20Now that I'm different.
12:24Yeah.
12:25Shit doesn't work
12:25if you're doing it to prove something.
12:28Yeah.
12:30Your main job now
12:32is to just focus on you.
12:35If I focus on me anymore,
12:37I'm gonna get myself pregnant.
12:40Yeah.
12:41It's not easy.
12:43It's not easy being by yourself, man.
12:45But,
12:47at the end of the day,
12:49it's really all we got.
12:51And I know you're going nuts,
12:53stuck at home,
12:54by yourself,
12:55but,
12:56you're a creative guy.
12:57Maybe you ought to use this time to
12:59figure out how to keep yourself company.
13:02Dad!
13:03It's stuck to the bottom.
13:05Hey, go eat your food, man.
13:07Don't worry about me.
13:08Really.
13:09Yeah?
13:10You sure you're okay?
13:10Yeah.
13:11I mean,
13:13I will be.
13:15All right.
13:16Well,
13:17you call me anytime, okay?
13:19I'm here.
13:20I love you, man.
13:21Thanks, man.
13:21Love you, too.
13:22Oh, wait.
13:22How are you gonna stir that from the couch?
13:24You got a 10-foot spoon hidden someplace?
13:40I'm so lonely.
13:43Say cheese.
13:44I'm so lonely.
13:48I'm lonely, baby.
13:51I'm so lonely.
13:56I get lonely.
14:00For you, baby.
14:03Yes, it's you I want.
14:07Only, baby.
14:11Ain't no woman been in my life
14:15since I met you.
14:18That's why I can't figure out
14:21why you're doing the thing
14:23that you do.
14:28Can I open it?
14:38I knew you were up to something.
14:42I'm so lonely, baby.
14:46Man, I'm supposed to have to live like this.
14:53I'm so lonely.
15:35What the fuck?
15:44So I dropped out.
15:47Moved home.
15:50Broke up with my boyfriend because everybody knows the long distance thing ever works.
15:58When I first got sober, I thought the accident was my bottom, but that was only part of it.
16:06It was all the things I threw away after.
16:12So now I'm right back where I started, sleeping in my old room, trying to start over again.
16:24Only I don't know how to make a new life for myself when there is no future to make.
16:39I don't know.
17:01you're making me seasick that's because you're trying to fight it you got to move with emotion
17:05like you're riding a horse when have you ever gone to horseback riding once when my parents
17:10forced me to go to summer adventure camp a counselor put me on a pony named butterscotch butterscotch
