Yes, oad, on and off he has been drinking too much. I don't think it's been a constant, or that he couldn't stop. Only that he is using that now to dull his emotions.
He used to be a runner--it helped him a lot. Now he can't run with his knee being so bad. So--he's got to "do something" not to jump out of his own skin.
Just an update: I asked if I should be concerned about the sewer gas killing us all in our sleep tonight, since we BOTH smelled gas.
HE says: .........WAIT FOR IT.......
"Um. I dunno." And shrugs with a sheepish expression. "Why don't you GOOGLE it?"
Are you friggin kidding me????
Something is clearly wrong with this man. No doubt about it. Even a neighbor would get more consideration.

We talked about "the weekend" about which he couldn't give me "his" schedule, until I told him how "alone" he'd get to be in the house. (Sheesh.)
I just was really sweet and cool. STFU. STFU..STFU...
And then I essentially asked: "So, what time do you go to SLEEP?" Getting at what time would work for him for me to come back, so I wouldn't interrupt--his---whatever.
HIM: (Snippy.) "I don't KNOW, GOAT GAL. It DEPENDS...."
WTF?
I'm about ready to tell him to stick his overnights in his ear. I sure as hell don't need this crap.
I'd rather just come home to a bunch of barking dogs and get up at the crack of dawn than deal with his "covering" for me.
Really. Give me a break.
