i don't miss waking up with mascara and lipstick all over my face and pillow
i don't miss brushing my grass like teeth and trying not to gag
i don't miss opening one eye in the morning and saying oooohhhh nooo
i don't miss calls from people 'i don't know' cause i gave my phone # out
i don't miss thinking wow i only spent 50 dollars look at my debit statement try 250 eeekkk
i don't miss going to work and the booze is ooozzzing out of my pores no amount of perfume will cover that smell

Just a few more, Hhhhmmm, let's see here:
This from way back I guess, but when I was drunk, sex wasn't really on my mind, only my next drink.....
'Nuff said here.....
Telling my drunk buddies that: "Hell yeah my truck can too make through that Hole!"

I don't miss:
-Late nights in the ER getting stitches from Nurse Ratched
-Spending all that money for 30 years instead of buying Microsoft stock
-Not looking people in the eye the night after so I won't bleed on them
-Wondering what the hail happened to Saturday
-Wondering what that black smoking pile in the oven was supposed to be
-Inhaling only while talking to people so they can't smell how I am
-Spilling coffee all over myself from withdrawal shakes
-Sitting in my chair for six hours cause I know I'll fall if I get up
-Wondering where the latest bruise came from, and how come my end table is busted

Kicking my dog because I am pissed for no apparent reason.
Washing my car to get out of the house when my wife was mad at men for drinking, only to spray her with the hose when she came out to apologize - right in front of the neighbors
Hating my car because I could've wrecked in it the night before - damn car, why didn't you stop me?
Not caring if everyone I love and care for in my life were gone - so I could drink whenever I wanted (I really hate that now)
Calling in sick to work with another big story so that I could drink.
Getting written up at work for calling in too much.
Trying antidepressants that didn't work - they just made me be able to drink more (kinda ironic, huh?)
Trying prescription diet pills to lose all the beer belly - but they made me drink twice as much (very ironic)
Wishing I was dead. :camper:

--needing to have a drink
--damaging a loving relationship with my husband

Wanting to die of embarrassement and shame
Having drunk sex and not remembering
Thinking I was the hotest thing since sliced bread, meanwhile looking drunk and pitiful
Taking off on my friends or family so I could go drink at a bar (and driving)
Seeing everything as a blur while driving (double vision and starburst lights)
Feeling very cheap and used the next day
When I got married - looking at my husband in despair so he could fill in the blanks..

For the ones that posted
"Do you know what you did last night"... uggghhhhh..I DREADED THAT
Especially the waking up and not remembering.. Wasn't that the scariest feeling ever.
I also hated asking my friends what I did and them responding "You don't want to know".. eeeeekkkkkk
My heart than dropped to the floor

looking through my bank statements to see where I took out money so I could figure out where I'd been
opening up my 'sent mail' to see what awful email I had sent to someone I shouldn't have. Even if I hadn't, opening it twenty more times just to be sure
wandering the streets the next day, thinking everyone was looking at me
going into a bar as soon as possible the next day, feeling like I'd escaped to somewhere safe
working out elaborate routes home from the liquor store so I wouldn't be seen
accidents, the emergency room
getting picked up by the cops, sweating it out overnight in the cells
being the one at a table drinking twice as fast as everyone else, getting drinks in halfway through rounds, and thinking - seriously - that no one was noticing
coming to after a blackout, sitting on the ground on a street I don't recognize, all possessions gone, wandering back and forth, going back obsessively to the place I woke up, literally not knowing where to turn
uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhh

Sharing secrets that I would normally keep to myself because I was drunk
Being thirsty for a week
My face breaking out
Throwing up red wine
Killing headache the next day
Telling acquaintances how much I loved them

Lureinece,
You have certainly tap danced on some of the biggies...
Sharing important stuff one shouldn't talk about. How many times has that gotten me in trouble. man o' man.
Coming onto women i don't even find attractive much less in an inappropriate situation. Talk about destroying my reputation and dignity!
The drink evaporates the man--is gone, gone, gone, flat on his face and flat on his behind, it's easy for a drunk to find his hip flask, and his fruit jar--
Not original, but can't rememvber the name of the singer.
