Good luck.
Thank you. I'm trying my best.

You need to remove the word ignorant. In October I put myself thru an alcohol rehab center and have been working with a therapist and psychiatrist. The described incident was a relapse after 80 days.

Now, I've increased my AA meetings to every day. I got complacent about the good progress of my recovery. I hope that I will be able to recognize relapse situations better and avoid them. In this case, I waited at the coffee shop and when no one showed up, I walked over to the bar Hungry, Angry, Lonely, and Tired. Next time, I will HALT and call a friend, even if it is late.

I'm sorry.
ok, here's what iv'e accumulated on you, Gwennie:

1. you're a gwen stefani lookalike/ obsessed fan
2. you have an 18 yr old child
3. you're a recovering alcoholic
4. you're some kind of computer engineer by day

Attention Undertoad: this is the perfect woman for you.

here's why:
1. Gwen stfani is cute, and if Gwennie really looks like her, then hey!
2. old enough, plus the kid is old enough to not be an issue
3. recovering alcoholic= needy type, low self esteem (exploitable)
4. computer engineering = ++$$++


Gwennie, Toad is perfect for you, too. I don't think I have to list why.

get out your Big Book and start reading. a friend of mine is in AA and i've thumbed through his book and read some of the stories. my fav is "Grounded". anyway, get in with your sponsor and you'll work things out. 80 days is something to be proud of! my bud as of late will call or come by the house if he's feeling that "tug". best of luck to you, keep your chin up and remember that there are people out there/here who are willing to give you whatever support you need. - fred

Too much baggage LJ, but I'd support her like a friend if she asked. If she were to call me all H.A.L.T. I would talk her through a nice meal.

(BTW kids R OK, I don't rule it out)

Gwennie you need to stand up to your responsability . You were drunk , trashed your car ( thank GOD you didn't hurt any body else !!!!) and probley got a DUI . report it as you should !!! Don't hide ANY thing !!!!! It will do you good to take your punishment . You deserve it and you know it , DON'T try and wesele out of one damn bit of it !!!!!

That being said , i drink ( probley to much ) and i have had a DUI .
I got mine a few days after i was discharged from the Marines . I still thought i was 10' tall and bullet proof . Imagen comeing to in the drunk tank and you have to call your mom to come bail you out , that is a slap of reality up-side the head .
It was $1.00 margerta Monday at a local bar , a friend and I drank $50. worth of margertas and $45 woth of shots of Teq. I drove him home , getting a 6 pack of beer on the way , and then desided to go visti my sister . On the way i passed a cop at 80mph in a 35mph zone . When he finaly cought up to me he asked me if I had been drinking as he opened my door , i rolled out at his feet and said "YUP" , when i blew in the breathalizer it said "One at a time please " . I got out of jail on tuesday morning . On wensday morning My lawyer wanted to continue the case untill later , i told him that i was guilty and wanted to get this all over with . The judge was supprised , but went ahead and sentinced me . He said that he admired the fact that i was admiting that i had done wrong and would accept his punishment .
He droped the fact i was driveing with expired tags , expired licence , no insurance , wreckless driveing , and he fined the shit out of me and i had to do 48 hrs jail time witch i elected to do at the local penal farm on saterdays , suspended licence , DUI school , SR21 , etc ......

It thurely sucked chopping weeds and picking up trash along the inter state , not to mention trying to figuer out how to get down town at nite to take those stupid ass classes , and the SR21 was FUCKING EXPENCIVE !!!!

But i learned my leason , if i drink i don't drive any thing more than a hamoc or a canoe .

I beleve one of your steps says something about responsability .

Talking Grammar Police nab zippyt

Okay pal...pull over.

Hands off that keyboard. Now turn around (sound of handcuffs)


Your Honor, I caught this person TUI (Typing Under the Influence) and he committed three offenses in his first "sentence" alone!.

What do you have to say for yourself, bub?

Yer honor I is guilty for all chargez.

I hereby sentence you to retake high school English plus night courses in grammar, fine you the cost of the time it took to read through your post and make sense of it plus Cellar Community Service, to be served at UnderToad's discretion.

zippyt, despite your inabilty to type, the grammar nazi pic had me on the floor laughing.

For those of you who don't read German ... the words on the blackboard that the Fuehrer-Lehrer is pointing at are:

Esel = ass (the animal)
hut = hat (the haberdashery)
