Here's me, SS:

The More I Drink

-Blake Shelton

He was sittin' at the bar, sippin' on a regular Coke
We were drinkin' and smokin' and makin' him the butt of our jokes
We all said, "Man, what happened to you? Why can't you just have a few?"
He said, "I would if I could, but it's probably best that I don't."

[Chorus]
Cause the more I drink, the more I drink
Yeah, I'm the world's greatest lover and a dancin' machine
I get loud, I get proud....and it gets worse
Well if I have one, I'll have thirteen
Naw, there ain't no in-between
Cause, the more I drink, the more I drink.

A couple of cold ones, and somebody hands me a shot.
Hell, even buck-tooth and bow-legged women start lookin' hot
And pretty soon I'm bummin' cigarettes and sweet talkin' some big brunette
Yeah, once I get on a roll, ain't no tellin' where I'll stop

[Chorus]

Yep-yep
Humm, that's what I'm talking about

Man, if I have one, I'll have thirteen
And they can't get me off the kareoke machine,
The more I drink...the more I drink.
Yeah, the more I drink, the more I drink, the more I drink.

Job interview in under an hour. This is the first job interview that I can remember going to sober. Not that I'd ever go drunk, but I'd usually slam a beer and take a puff of two to calm my nerves. And boy am I getting nervous!

You might be more nervous during, but you'll be LESS nervous after when you remember it clearly Go rock it!

Hey guys, I got the job. I was asked if I was interested in eventually moving up to be a checker and I decided to tell them (the owners) that I probably wouldn't be able to handle it with my anxiety and they were okay with that. In fact they were really glad and impressed that I told them up front what my limitations were. They said that they don't usually find out that kind of stuff until after they hire someone. And what made me feel really good is that they told me that I looked really positive and that my eyes looked happy. They said they often get people applying that don't smile or anything. Anyway, I start in a week. It feels good to know that I won't have to steal chickens to eat, lol. Thanks for the support!

I am very happy for you DK.

I try to stay with my feelings, even the most uncomfortable ones. THEY ALWAYS PASS!!! They go through a process. They arise, get intense (this is where I usually would have sought some artificial relief ) and then the feelings begin to wane till they are gone.

Keep up the good work. You have a great cheerleading section here.
