Paulos -

I was the POSTER WOMAN for PAWS ... I learned t laugh at it. I knew it was going to subside, so what the heck.
It was better than the stupid things I did ... drunk.

LIke -
and If rattled - I will do this to this day -
get a cup of coffee at work - open sugar free thingy -
tear open baggie -
pour contents into trash -
throw paper into coffee.

I can't count the times I've done that.

It's funny actually.

One morning - I did that -
right in front of about ten guests here at the hotel.
I turned and saw them all amost ...
looking at me.
I said -
"Hello, my name is *barb* and I'll be your pilot this morning"
the entire group busted outlaughing ...
and one guy says
'Man I HOPE not!'

Learn to laugh at yourself.

PAWS ... goes away.
