My Parents

I don't know what happened to the kids or what any of their names were. I was too young to pick up on that sort of detail. Howsomever, the first time I read this, I thought it was about someone I knew of.

All I know is that this woman delivered newspapers for a living. She had a couple of teenaged sons and she drank litterally all the time. She'd carry around a big plastic tumbler full of gin or vodka colored with powdered ice tea. She died in her house on the living room couch about three days before anyone figured out that she wasn't just passed out, as usual.

Now, how fucked up is the world that a detail like that could be so common?

In the 60's people took acid to make the world weird. Now the world is weird and people take Prozac to make it normal.
