I plan to have a few melon "martinis," and take a much needed nap. I pour my second martini, and then third and I am ready to sleep the day away. Wait a minute, why stop at 3? Now that I know I can sleep, why pace myself. A nice long, drunk nap while the kids and husband are away wont hurt anyone. The more the better.
Now this is wehre things get ugly for the weekend. Saturday morning, drunk by 10. Who knows how much I have drunk so far, but given that I have a larger than needed bottle of vodka, I don't need to ration anything out for the weekend. Yeah, I promised Brad I wouldn't drink come Monday, but I certainly didn't mean it, and I am sure he knows that. Empty promises are nothing new to the spouse of an alchy. And opposite of what AA preaches, I only plan my drinking one day at a time. Unless it is Saturday, in which case I must plan for Sunday (liquor stores are closed). I cross the bridge of Monday's alcohol when I come to it. Right now, I am happy to know that there is enough alcohol to last me the next two days. Off to a drunk sleep I go.

Well, AA does not 'teach'...because a 'real' alcoholic WILL NOT BE TAUGHT.
ReplyDeleteBut AA DOES work--with my cooperation, and has for 36 years--(March 18 will be 37) Those years simply mean I DID not drink, and I DID not die. That's it!
PEACE--I would never 'preach' to you or anyone, it is "take-it-or-leave-it" stuff.
