One of my early clues that my drinking was not the same as everyone else's drinking is when my friends would come into work on Monday and laugh about their hangovers that weekend, I couldn't laugh about mine, they were an everyday plaque. Only now can I very occasionally laugh about my drinking past.<br /><br />BTW, I don't play Bejeweled or any of those games because it would be just one more thing I'd have to check one more time to keep me chained to this computer screen.<br />Kary Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12674442468925628974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958057397876971565.post-15614049516042804302013-10-26T20:21:13.513-04:002013-10-26T20:21:13.513-04:00Love this!

Listen, I used to be *horrified* when those thoughts came to me. I would call up every other alcoholic I knew and told them and I would freak out, thinking I would drink,etc. They too would either smile, or laugh, or just nod knowingly. As I do now, because while it was scary then, now it's just part of being an alcoholic. That's what we do, folks. Not every day. not every minute. At the beginning, sure. But when there is time between us and the last drink, it comes now and then. At least for me it does. A fleeting flash at best, then drowned out by my "tsk tsk"s. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing this - always good to know we get one another :)<br /><br />Blessings,<br />Paul<br /><br />P.S love that new profile pic - stunning! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958057397876971565.post-82146502347921030422013-10-26T09:38:36.813-04:002013-10-26T09:38:36.813-04:00Baby, the blogesphere loves you stream of conscous...Baby, the blogesphere loves you stream of conscousness (s.p.) and i love you...you get it and you have it....never be discouraged by your thoughts and feelings, emotions...they are all apart of what makes you the GREATEST....KUTGW...<br />elmohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10245933883115491085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958057397876971565.post-33560051752478840702013-10-26T08:28:23.479-04:002013-10-26T08:28:23.479-04:00I said those very same things to myself for years,...I said those very same things to myself for years, water before wine, just on the weekends, only two glasses. It took me a really long time to start my journey. I'm only 90 days so it's really important to know that even after lots of time the thought still crosses your mind. I look forward to the time to laugh about it instead of being pissed that it entered my head. Love the honesty and humor in all your posts.<br />Sharon (soberatsixty.wordpress.com)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958057397876971565.post-65878312693919020262013-10-26T02:53:59.730-04:002013-10-26T02:53:59.730-04:00I had a thought just the other day 'I wonder i...I had a thought just the other day 'I wonder if I'll ever drink again' WTF?????!!!! You would not believe the shit that is going down in my life right now.. have to say despite that random thought I have been so very grateful to be sober with my feet planted firmly on the ground while some serious shit goes down. I can't write about it publically but might facebook you...anyway.. point being.. yes our crazy alcoholic brains will always be with us and for that reason we may whine and moan and fret and be all introspective but we must never ever let that nasty liquid pass between our sweet sober lips. Oh look I've gone all poetic. Hope you are ok, I've been reading but not commenting sorry.. love you long time. One day we will get that hug xxxMrs Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13110933370498728198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1958057397876971565.post-3658722902347028422013-10-25T22:57:31.737-04:002013-10-25T22:57:31.737-04:00Ha ha, I LOLed too!
