I celebrated with pizza and some Yukon Jack when I finally finished my move on Monday! I still have some in the bottle that I'm saving for tonight.

6. I don't think so, although I know people who would disagree |
|
So, either I'm right and they're wrong, or I'm in denial. Anyway, I don't drink to excess these days, so I'm not worried about it.

I've met those people as well, and I sure wish they'd get out of the mental health profession and quit projecting their issues on patients.
Ain't gonna happen anytime soon, though....

I almost pm'd you the other day when I was having a tough time, but felt funny since you don't really know me.

14. 17 in 2 weeks and 5 days |
|
but who's counting?
I am grateful to my God, whatever He / She / It isn't, for helping me stop. Anybody who knows they're alcoholic and wants to drink, God bless you! It's your right and I been there, done that. It feels good til it doesn't feel good no more.
Anybody who wants to stop, God and other human beings will help you.
And there is a recovery room here at DU . . .
