One click on my igoogle icon and the force is with me like an appendage or something. > It's hard for a body to quit drinking if it's regularly visiting in smokey > rooms with others that talk about drinking.

First I had to find a non-smoking one; I cannot stand breathing someone else's smoke and I never frequent or play in clubs anymore. Secondly, everybody talks about drinking the whole damn time and how depressing their lives were/are and I walk out wanting a drink more than before I went in. > "One day at a time" becomes "I forgot all about it." > But that's me. YMMV. ;) I never drink during the day but on a very rare occasion like I am in a whole lot of pain or something. It could be physical or emotional but I would say maybe twice a year during the day. At night I have my toddies before a late dinner which is bad I know. It is a habit that *psychologically* I cannot break. I can stop drinking on a dime by eating early and taking a half of a benzodiazepine but I am wired really different than most people. I am also sensitive and can feel true empathy which is both a blessing and a curse. I also have a photographic memory that replays events in my minds eye constantly and I cannot relax until toddy time. > Cheers, > Ben in Pottsylvania ;) Well you have been known to have a potty mouth and you scared me a few times. I am glad that is all behind you. <G> To life, liberty and to your pursuit of happiness, HIO in Oregon

Hopefully next year I'll have some raspberries to mingle with the > elderberries! You know what. In Oregon, Blackberries and Raspberries are considered a weed. They will take over your yard in a heartbeat and they are growing wild everywhere. In the summer I will ride my motorcycle down the mountain to land around the horse stables with like 6 16 ounce yogurt containers and fill them up in thirty minutes with Blackberries. I will put five in the refrigerator and one in a huge bowl of ice water and munch on them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozqfOzqMvlQ It amazes me what they charge for them in the store. I will say okay today I just picked $100.00 worth of Blackberries in a half hour and I think I will change my profession. Oh my, that reminds me of Blackberry pie, now I am reminiscing again.
