Been away for a while but just HAVE to jump in on this:
Told our marriage counselor, "I drink because who would want to come home to that (pointing at me)?"
"You do too much research."
"I watch it very carefully because I never want to have to stop drinking."
"Sometimes I drink to self-medicate, sometimes to have fun. I know the difference."
"You don't know how to have fun."
"You can never understand. It's part of my heritage." (He is Irish, I am German)
"I do those on-line quizzes all the time and always come out great."
Free of this baloney since 08/06/10--my new birthday!
