The good thing is that people who have been sober a long time don't miss it and to be fair neither do I for 90% of the time. Thinking about "normal" drinking is just a comfort blanket Hey, all this talk of peckers being kept up - I live in London's East End, home of cockney rhyming slang. I have two words to say on the subject. Hampton Wick
I hear you saoutchick, I don't usually think that far ahead. Too scared to at the moment.
The posts have scared the living day lights out of me. So I don't even entertain the luxury of thought. The problem with the posts though, is that they get the AV really humming along. I have to stay away from SR for a while as the posts just get too close to home. I am not that far into sobriety that I have forgotten the drunken arguments etc.
Saoutchick, you are going to have to take the pecker fight up with martina12. It is all her fault. Besides, it gets tounges wagging.
