Reminds me of all of those “I paid off my student loans by the time I graduated” (by just having rich parents and living with them and spending their money

I’d like to recommend Laird Barron who mostly writes horror stories and novels. I’ve read his short story collection “The Beautiful Thing That Awaits us All” and there are some really good ones in there (along with some mediocre of course). And his novel The Croning is my favorite horror novel in recent memory. I felt like it could be adapted well into a movie, too.

Another great (very scary imo) novel is Carrion Comfort by Dan Simmons. Might be my top horror novel.

Also, I’d like to second someone else’s suggestion for Between Two Fires.

I had a job that felt like this sometimes, as a contractor for a federal gov’t agency, and I hated it. Be careful what you wish for…

I’m surprised to have a different take than anyone here, so far. When I drink tea in the evening, I don’t drink alcohol. And it’s hard for me to not drink alcohol. It’s a really nice substitute that fills me up, gives me something to hold and drink, and tastes good.
