Hey everyone.. obviously I'm new to these forums. I'm Johnny. I'm addicted to alcohol (just what you need right? Another alkie).. but I've been quit for a while now and am loving life! Although I believe I have a new addiction - coffee. Can't win them all I guess. Just wanted to surround myself with some like-minded people. Have a great day everyone!

Hey Johnny!! Welcome to the Forum!! :Wave:
Yeah I usually have 2 cups of coffee before 9am too, I have tried to cut down or go decaf during the day though, and switch to green/white teas in the evenings!!

a good month was $400 - mine reached upward for 600-700
wow - just typing that makes me ill.

Jupiters! I love your sig! Cracked me right up.
Johnny, congrats on being sober. Once upon a time I was a binge drinker but I quickly got over that, unfortunately my poison became opiates (codeine in particular) so whilst I may be an "opie" instead of an "alkie" we are all here for the same reason - to support each other and stay clean together.
Welcome!
