I have 7 days also and I'm going to join in your one week celebration, and agree that it feels great. Never been a doughnut, er creme bun, man myself so I'm goin to celebrate with a KING size Snickers bar right about now. And of course wash it down with a big glass of Kool-Aid. Tomorrow starts another great week and I can't wait to enjoy it:danse1b:

ADayAtATime 01-07-2009 06:44 PM

Hey Brian! I just realized that you live in Columbus, Ohio.
So do I....You can actually walk that Snicker's on over here....LOL!

Brian 01-07-2009 07:19 PM

I saw that you were in Ohio and was going to ask if I needed 70 or 71 to get it you.

I'll trade you on week 2, I'll have the doughnut and you can have the snickers bar, but don't forget the huge glass of Kool-Aid to wash it down with. :c043:

Lenina 01-07-2009 07:25 PM

Congrats on your sober time!

Love,

Lenina

ADayAtATime 01-07-2009 07:25 PM

Ok, deal....but do I have to wash it down with a glass of Kool-Aid, don't get me wrong I like Kool-Aid and all...but with a Snicker's bar...Ewwwww!
How about some milk instead?

Yeah milks probably better, it's just that when I don't drink alcohol I can never seem to drink enough Kool-Aid. I guess you could say that I got Kool-Aid on the brain.

I'll probably switch to milk for that donut now that you mention it.

gonzo9730 01-07-2009 07:31 PM

Just enjoyed my dinner greatly. Stirred my imagination up and cooked baked almond crusted salmon over a bed of whole grain rice w/ melted havarti cheese. Came purely out of my head, and it tasted fantastic. Couldn't of thought of that if I was drunk.

Hey, You need a T-Shirt that says:

GOT KOOL-AID?
:lmao

Brian 01-07-2009 07:38 PM

Gonzo I know its not much of a deal but I've got a little snickers left in trade for some of that salmon. That sounds freakin awesome.

I'm not much of a Salmon eater, but I will have some of that rice with the cheese melted over the top.
You know what is funny? I enjoyed cooking more when I was drinking my beer, made it more entertaining...if that makes any sense...LOL.
XOXO

Brian 01-07-2009 07:40 PM

It would have to have a bunch of little kool-aid stained lip marks all over the sleaves and collar. Otherwise it wouldn't be authentic.

I guess I could always add those myself!

gonzo9730 01-07-2009 07:44 PM

I really enjoyed beer while barbecuing. Drinking while cooking indoors never created additional pleasure for me. A "snickers" does sound good about now.

ADayAtATime 01-07-2009 07:45 PM

Since I don't like Salmon...I guess that there will be more for you two.
You guys might not get much rice though...me likey rice.

Has anyone seen that Arby's commercial?
This guy's wife dresses up in the Arby's outfit for his birthday, then she comes out carrying the tray...Tada, then the little Arby's hat symbol pops up over the guys head and he say's "Me Likey."
I cracked up when I saw that...now I keep going around saying Me Likey.
I'm such a goofball and just to think that I will be 40 in March...HAH!
XOXO

ADayAtATime 01-07-2009 07:51 PM

Does anyone ever experience this?
You can just be going about your day, then you think...I'm doing pretty good, feel good and I'm not drinking....then all of a sudden you flash back to the it felt good to have a buzz...then it's like, I'm not drinking...give me a beer. Almost like Homer having one of beer panic attacks.
Then, a few seconds later your fine.
I hope that made sense...every now and then I get like an mini panic attack for a few seconds then it goes away.
Weird huh?

Brian 01-07-2009 07:58 PM

You are definitly silly. That Arby's commercial did crack me up, I always wanted my ex to bring me chicken wings on a tray but it didn't work out. Maybe that's why we broke up.... I always thought it was my 12-pack a night habit.

I have those thoughts everyday, but then I just remind myself that I have a mental obsession with alcohol and that's all it is. Those thoughts are becoming somewhat less frequent with each day
