I went back to work at Gladstone's in Malibu, which SBE took over. I thought I could live that life again, but had to bounce. I was spending too much time thinking about it, and and the people working there. After 10 years of being out of that scene, then coming back, I set a new standard in that place. Old school brought back to show new school how to stay busy and sell at the same time. The money was insane. $500 in two days of hard work wasn't uncommon, but the chance of slippin' up and getting caught-up-in-the scene was rearing its ugly head. I had to bounce. Money got tight after that, but I was proud of myself for knowing myself better than that. o:

This. This is why I got out of it. Self discipline started slippin.

Rock bottom doesn't have to be ugly, it's just when you decide to stop digging. :chuckles:
