They say tragedy plus time equals comedy! It might be a source of embarrassment or even shame now, but the longer you stay sober the less it will bother you. Or at least that was the case with me. I was well known as a drunk, and most people close to me have their MythOfSisyphus-stories! It might be my ex-wife (got into bed after a bender and barfed in her hair), my brother's ex-GF (got plastered while drinking with him, tripped and broken their table), my cousin (hung my head out the window of his Mustang, puked all the way home), etc etc.

I can't change the past but I know those things were done by the old MythOfSisyphus, not me now. As the past recedes in the rear view mirror I have begun to see the humor in those tales.
