Posting this on Facebook would be a really good idea...

One more day won't hurt...

You're still young. There's plenty of time to quit and get your life together...

Drink wine, you can't get drunk if you're being sophisticated...

The vitamin B supplement I take every morning will counteract (or at least slow down) the liver damage and shakes from a half liter of vodka every night.

Thanks for posting. So funny and true!!!!
I remember thinking..I am totally speaking clearly and holding a normal,coversation or I. Know I feel tipsy, but I can totally walk straight... No one knows a thing.

I also told myself lots of lies...'I deserve a drink because I work hard/have got the day off/am sad/am happy/it's the weekend/it helps relax me.'

Also..'my drinking hurts no-one except me'...

And the best one of all..'I could stop anytime I wanted to...'

I don't need to stop, but I maybe I should think about cutting down (a little) . . .

My boss can't tell I'm still drunk....
Everyone's hands shake its normal....
That cop can't tell I've been drinking the light post jumped out in front out me when i was walking out of the bar....

Nobody will know
That crap is not supposed to happen to sober people, I might as well drink

Soberpotamus 01-10-2015 09:48 AM

My biggest: It's my right to drink how and when I want.

Umm...
