Its amazing and frustrating how someone else's addiction and behavior can suck the enjoyment right out of your life. There are so many things that I can't do, because the aggravation after you do it is so much greater than the pleasure you get from an activity. No microbrews, no naps, no movies, no beach time with your family, no socializing with friends. Your life, especially in a small town, becomes this grey ghost of what it once was. I know this sounds co-dependent, but its true... I don't go to the library because my A might destroy what I bring home. I don't get movies, because she'll pass out before we're done watching it, and won't remember even if she does stay up to the end. We don't go to movies, because it cuts into her drinking time.
Oh well, it won't change until something changes..
