Hehehehehe.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m fairly certain Scott isn&#8217;t laughing at this attempt to capture his elusive good looks. He is a fine fellow in the flesh. I have tried at least seven sketches of him, and I simply cannot get a likeness. Sorry, Scott. At least you get to stay anon this way.<\/p>\n<p>Now. Back to our scheduled programming. If you feel that you might have grown up in an abusive environment, you might want to look into the possibility of going to one of the relevant Twelve Step groups in your area. I can&#8217;t speak for any of the other groups, so I&#8217;ll stick to AACA &#8212; it&#8217;s been very helpful to me. <\/p>\n<p>You can get info from the website &#8212; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alanon.org.za\/Adult_Children_of_Alcoholics.htm\">Adult Children of Alcoholics<\/a><\/p>\n<p><i>This painting originated as a black gel ink sketch in my Moleskine.
