He's 16 I think. I'm 17.

therefore Illegal to drink.

Although I haven't drank in years, I used to be a J.D. drinker.

I invented a drink when I was in the army. Fill a blender with ice. Pour in a pint of vodka. Then, take 1/2 a can of frozen concentrated pink lemonade and drop it on top. Blend, grind, crush, whatever, until you have a slushy consistency.

I called it a Pink Floyd.

Ouch! Sounds like a hangover and a half! Gives me a headache just thinkin' about it! How long ago you quit drinkin'?

I haven't touched alcohol for over 3 1/2 years. And yes, to quell any speculation, I am an alcoholic. The day I hit another car with mine was the day I realized I could actually hurt someone else besides myself. I haven't had a drop since.

I miss it sometimes. Not getting drunk, mind you, but the activity of drinking. It was something to do. I drank by myself, of course. I am solitary by nature, that hasn't changed. That's why I like it here at MB. Not to upset anyone, but this is where I can speak to people on my own terms. No one can invade my space, unless I choose to let them.

That's why I don't own a cell phone. Where I am and what I'm doing is my business, and it offends me to think someone can just call me, where ever I might be, whether I want them to or not.

Anyway, about the drinking, I went to AA for about six months. It got to where I couldn't stand it. The same people with the same complaints, day in and day out. "Oh, I wanted to drink so bad today!". They were sober, but still worshipping alcohol, you know? I was like, when are you going to take your life back?

When I quit, I was an alcoholic first and foremost. But, there comes a point where you have to stop letting alcohol control who you are. I evolved from alcoholic, into father, husband, son, brother, coworker, and, oh yeah, I also can't drink because once I start, I can't stop.

You see what I mean? You have to be a person first eventually, or you will live your life in the most miserable way possible: an alcoholic that can't think of anything else but the fact that they can't drink.

^ I'm really glad to hear you were the bigger person and got through that. It takes a lot of will power. If only we could get through to the other alcoholics out there!

I personally enjoy Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, Southern Comfort, and Candian Club. I'm a whiskey/bourbon kind of girl.

I catch a lot of heat.

*GASP!!!* You're an alcoholic and you don't attend meetings!!?? Oh, my, you're going to drink, you're going to drink you're going to drink!!! LOL.

When the reality is, You know, I hadn't even thought about drinking for months until you brought it up. LOL.

Besides, the meeting closest to my house is always when my kids have a game. Priorities, you know. Hmmm.....do I want to watch my kids play ball...or let's see....go listen to a bunch of people I don't know sing their misery out long and loud?

People judge what they havn't experienced, they are afraid due to lack of understanding.

Most girls around these parts of New Zealand drink that shitty Smirnoff vodka, the really bad quality NZ made stuff. It's good to see someone drinking the bourbon.
