Okay, I think I just broke 25 years of sobriety...

[WCGreen]

I was cleaning out the end of my IV by running it through alcohol before I flushed...

I was out of the cleansing swabs the nurse gave me...

I guess I didn't wait long enough for the alcohol to evaporate before flushing out my IV...

Jesus Christ, I got a little bit of a buzz...

Am I going to have a hangover tomorrow...

[OzarkDem]

1. That doesn't really count, does it?

So will you start having cocktails via IV?

Take care of yourself, WC. Hope you're feeling ok.

[WCGreen]

2. Nasty bug left me in Hospital from Christmas night until

New Years Day...

Caught it fast so there probably is no permanent damage, but it took it's toll on me...

[OzarkDem]

3. New Years Eve in the hospital

no fun. There's been some really bad flu bugs going around. Take care and say hi to Mrs. Green.

OT, did you see in the Pee Dee that Trakas is going to run against Kucinich in the 10th? Jim needs the work, I guess. His most recent job has been selling for Russ Massetta at NatureStone.

[WCGreen]

6. How about no dem in the State Senate 24...

Hell they could have called me just to get someone on the ticket...

Christ all mighty...

[OzarkDem]

14. I know, that's crazy

I even half expected someone to call me again and ask me to run, but I didn't hear from anyone. I was too busy and didn't realize the deadline to pull a petition had passed. As nice as he is, our city leader only cares about the frickn' judges.

I don't know what's going on, it seems the county party has their heads up their arses again.

4. Dude, that is a freebie

It was not something you did seeking to get high.

:hug:

Because of my chronic pain issues, I have to take some powerful drugs to combat it. I sometimes get buzzy. I still consider myself sober.

[WCGreen]

7. I felt like wraping that comfprting plastic bottle in a brown paper sack

to head off under the over pass and join my old pals...

[KitchenWitch]

10. That feeling will pass.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

5. Uh-oh...

That'll be one hellova hangover!

Not!

IV anything is going right into your bloodstream...

And it's immediately available to you...

Enjoy!

You're more than entitled!

:hi:

[WCGreen]

8. Left the house today for the first time since coming home from the

hospital...

Wore me out just sitting over at my sisters house...

[CaliforniaPeggy]

9. Oh I believe that...

You will be convalescing a while yet...

I know how stir-crazy it gets staying in one place, though...

:hug:

[LaurenG]

11. I am glad you are out and home now

That's a funny story btw. Get well soon. :hug:

[Lil Missy]

12. You are still sober. It was just an accident.

And congrats of 25 years of sobriety!

[Stuart G]

13. Accidents don't count... Let this one go...worry about something else.

Kudos on the 25 years..

[datasuspect]

15. was it isopropyl alcohol?

if so, you're still sober.

humans get drunk on ethyl alcohol (ethanol).

don't fret.

you still have 25 years.

unless you were cleaning the IV with Old Grandad or something.

[SPKrazy]

16. Unless you were trying to get a buzz...

you're still sober man

let it go

It's all one day at a time anyway :hi:

[lizziegrace]

17. Don't think that counts

it was unintentional.

How are you doing otherwise? Is this it for a while or will this be an all-winter thing for you? I hope it's the former.

:hug:

You were missed at the meetup.

We'll have one in Cleveland when the weather moderates.

:hug:
