I park my car in the lot outside a one-room school house. What kind of education will I get tonight? What if they don’t think I need to be here? What if they don’t like me? Do I have to tell them I’m an alcoholic? Eyeyeye. Fuckin’ A…fucking AA.
As casually as a drag queen wearing her first pair of heals, I saunter up to the front door. Maybe no one will even notice me. I lower my gaze from [...]

This is not a classy story. Embarrassing and perhaps titillating. But not lady-like. I was 21-years-old. It’s pretty representative of how I acted. In my next blog I will share my recovery.

When I was drinking I did a lot of dangerous things. But I thought I was invincible and didn’t care how it effected the people around me. Example:
In the year 2000.

9 ½ years ago, I would have to be drunk just to hang out with people. Just to open my mouth and talk. Being sober was really fucking uncomfortable. Every time I spoke, it was like thought bubbles were popping up displaying all my feelings, “awkward”, “insecure nerd”, “Debbie Downer” “I pee in the shower.” No one would even have a clue as to what I was actually saying. They could only see what a disaster I was and kept [...]
