Cure for colds and flu: Orange Juice (and Stoli)
Now that I finally signed up here, I am excited to share some stupid s**t I've been up to lately (well, over a month ago)....
I caught a cold around Chistmastime....and I actually used to kind of like it when I got sick, because I felt so lousy that I would stop drinking. Once a year, I would have a cold or the flu, and it would dry me out for one week. Big whoop.
Anyway, like I was saying I caught this cold around Christmas. My beverage of choice has been white wine. But since I was sick, I figured that Orange Juice would be good for me. So this time around, I stopped the wine for a week, and instead figured it would be really healthy to drink Orange Juice...........with Stoli in it....a Half a quart of Vodka a night. Man oh man....great cure. Sick and hungover. So brilliant.

Interesting. Instead of drying out I'd always try to drink through my illnesses, and I actually believed that it worked, like alcohol cured me or killed off the bacteria or virus or whatever. Yeahhhh rightttt!!!
I have a family member who believes that mixing cranberry juice with vodka turns it into a healthy drink that's good for your liver and urinary tract
All just part of the insanity and lie of this disease as far as I'm concerned

I was feeling kinda tired with a scratchy throat last week...and was over some friend's house...and they offered me Rock N' Rye as a cure for the throat. I reminded them that I quit drinking, and they told me this wasn't drinking..it would make me feel better. Time to spend time with folks that get it and will be supportive.
