I was at a meeting a couple of weeks before Christmas, and everyone was talking about how they were looking forward to Christmas because they were sober, simple pleasures, grateful to be alive, completely in touch with the realness of living a real life and so on...they asked me if I wanted to speak and I promptly burst into tears and explained how I was dreading Christmas!
At that point, I was miserable. All I could do was go to work, lie in bed, and go to meetings. I left that meeting feeling so apart from those people on their pink cloud (
), but determined to hang in there.
Within a couple of weeks, I was the Mayor of Pink Cloud Town.
It is a strange place for me, but I am loving it! I can't even make a sarcastic joke about it...sarcasm amnesia...:wtf2
...and I'll end this with a smilie (of COURSE!)...nah, I see your puppies cubile, and I'll raise you a kitten...wearing a sweater!
