August78. The only thing about myself I know for sure is that I was born August 22 1978. I miss my father and I love my mother. The little girl that became a young lady who developed into a mess of what will hopefully become a smarter for the better(sober) woman was born on that date.

Comet sounds cool! I guess I could've been 1965Corvair, but one of my hobbies is amateur astronomy so I went with Astro. Only problem is most people think of the dog from The Jetsons! Ruh-roh, Rastro!

On the astronomy forum I frequent my user name is ArizonaScott. Now there's an original one!

Forget the petrol prices and the mortgage crisis Gordon Brown, if you want to survive I suggest you get Dark chocolate M&M's in the UK now.

My name is pretty simple really, couple of days earlier I'd have been known as vodka, its just what I happened to be drinking when I registered.

No actually, don't use that, I used to be in the Para's, the red berrets, its what my platoon called me after I stormed a bunker single handed and came back with 76 prisoners and a crate of fizzy water.

Yeh, use that one.

This is a great thread!

Think Cupid wielding the thunderbolt.

'Cause my real problem is a life-long jonesin' from love addiction. The booze was just a symptom.

That thread teej started 'Find rusty zipper a new avatar' was the first thing I read when I stumbled across SR.

I sat here thinking-either I'm still really drunk or these people are totally weird and I'm not sure I want to be here. LMAO! Too funny!

After years of years of drinking and the progression taking over, I was stuck in a self-imposed misery. After I quit, I slowly began losing my misery. Not a bad thing at all!!!!

I had severe stomach pain & a numb hand - I was doing a search for "health issues of alcoholics" while swigging down my umpteenth beer of the day. The first thing that popped up was one of the SR posts. Just prior to clicking on it the thought was running through my head, "Drinking used to be like heaven for me, but now it's turned into hell". So when I needed to come up with a screen name I picked Heaven - but I was told it was already in use - so I thought I'd be clever and spell it differently. This is a great thread....thanks.

Mine is not very interesting. Second to wine, I loooooooooove drinking Coke (regular not diet). I thought "cokegirl" might get misinterpreted on a recovery site, so I became colagirl.
