My "best" day drunk

My drunks were not as bad as some...but they were bad enough for me!!
Some of the problems I got into when I was drunk are the stuff nightmares are

Oh Yeah...those pounding headaches, the nausea, the spins. I got them from the first time I drank.
The day my boyfriend asked me to marry him...and I told him to ask later, I wasn't drunk enough yet. We did talk marriage...while he abused the crud out of me. I let him...because I never once was on a date with him sober. Not once.

The worst one, and one that helped start me looking at my drinking, was driving home from a friend's house with my son and husband. I was taking corners way to fast and generally driving like a stupid person. I almost lost it at one corner and I remember thinking that if I had lost it we would have flipped. It's an older convertible and not the safest car. Ever since that day my dh and I vowed to never drive drunk. I kept telling him that I was the less drunk of us two and I didn't want to stay overnight at the friend's house. Afterward I confessed that we were lucky we made it home alive and that we shall not mention this to each other again. We would only vow to never drive drunk.
I still get skeeved out to this day when I think of it.
Lucky
Oh Brenda
VERRRY KEWL, my dear.
My DH has a serious criminal record. Luckily it is sealed (he was in the service at the time). He is now a respected member of the community....thanks to sobriety (He has 19 years in AA).
I was home drinking, my son was in bed, a "friend" showed up uninvited. He is bad news but irresistable. And when I drink, forget it, its all over, so I let him in, we drink, I tell him he cant stay cause my kid is here, 1 in the morning he convinces me to drive him to a friends house. I am trashed but drive him, I go to turn up the road he points out, and slide into a ditch, he beats feet and leaves me drunk in the ditch at one in the morning, my kid at home asleep, I am lost in the dark, dont know where I am. He went to his real girlfriends house up the road, nice. so after waiting a bit, I had no phone, I was getting ready to try to walk home, when a girl pulled up in the dark, she called her boyfriend up the street he came and pulled me out. THANK GOD. I made it home. But my god, if it wasnt for that girl coming along I would have been SO screwed. That was a massive wake up call. but not enough, the same guy burned me two more times after that before I cut ties with him. It was the only time I ever drank and drove. and I can guarantee the LAST time.

Sometimes you fake it, till you can make it.
When I started to frequent drinking establishments...
I got all gussied up....French perfume.....little black dress...coifed and spiffy!
I loved hotel lounges. ...tinkling piano...low pink lights..thin martini glasses .
By the end of my drinking career...
I was a regular at the corner joint.
Often there for the 8 am opening...smeary makeup..sweaty and shaking.
Wooden unswept floor... uni john...dirty window
And a host of other losers to
impress with witty von mots.
Coming out of a blackout...I was sitting in my underwear
on a floor, TV showing cartoons
My neighbor was there in Jockeys
Bwtween us an ice bucket..2 quarts of scotch.
The last I remember I was at a Friday night dance..it is now Simday.
???? "We took off our clothes because you threw up
we are on the floor because you kept falling down"
I have never had another drink.
A few years later he was found dead in the same apartment
littered with beer cans and bottles.
Ted did not think he was an alcoholic.
