mostly a recovery blog


Todd as I understand him

Todd is an alcoholic of twenty-plus years still figuring out what sobriety portends. He is desperate to find meaning and distrustful of happiness, although he envies anyone who’s honestly happy and can prove it. He lives in Tacoma, Washington, as the blog title attests.

An important note on anonymity

This blog respects the anonymity of everyone in recovery, whether in AA, an alternative recovery program, or nothing at all. Letters, applied mostly at random, have been assigned to this site’s beloved fictional characters so there is no mistaking them for real-life persons. Any resemblance to real-life persons is purely coincidental and an understood hazard of fiction writing.

Some of the shit about Todd is real.
