As for me, I need to recognize that I have the ability to change my behavior. Because if I'm not the author of my behavior, well that just creepy to think I'm controlled by some spooky force.

Woooo spooky forces......LOL.

Ack, apologies.

I have to apologize a lot around here... I hail from a darker side of the internet, and have been trying to restrain myself. I won't mention you know what again.

Mat you have to accept our apologies, we are a little bent over here, but we are rather fond of people from the dark side, as long as they arent Death Eaters.

With a voice like James Earl Jones, Vader would totally pwn Voldemort.

What a bunch of certified whacko's!

I leave for a week and you're all still a bunch of blithering baboons. I bet none of you has slept for more than an hour since I left.

Oh, holiday was great...feel tired from driving all day but feel like a mega-kazillion bucks for not having drunk any booze.

Please continue now with your previously scheduled giddiness

Murray

Murray, you write us back at 2:00 in the AM and wonder how WE slept? Ok, I'll try to sort that out later.

"I leave for a week and you're all still a bunch of blithering baboons. I bet none of you has slept for more than an hour since I left."-Murray.

I guess you figured to come home and find that we had actually progressed into mature adults?--Not happening!!-- Glad your back, "CONGRATS” on the no booze!!
Feels good doesn’t it?

Just wanted to say hello. I have been on SR since early July (50 days sober) and have decided AA is not for me. You seem like a great group of people who think like I do (too bad for you guys HA). I look forward to reading this thread everyday...thanks for your wisdom and support!

Hi Hunt and welcome...this section can be a little quiet at times, its morecyclical then anything else but we are where all the fun people hang out;-) word of warning...we are forbidden from talking in any way, shape or form about the organization that sound like a roadside car assistance program...you camomile me if you want specifics:-)

Glad to see you here! I always like your posts and the picture of your cute little puppies:-)
