You know you're an alcoholic when...

You know you're an alcoholic when...

The morning after you have to pull over in the car because you are shaking so much

You know you're an alcoholic when...

You get a phone call from your son wondering where you are because he's waiting to be picked up from school.. and you're lying in the living room clutching an empty wine bottle with puke running down the side of your mouth.

And yet, when I zoomed there in my car I had the audacity to blame my lateness on the "traffic".
How bad is that.

You know you're an alcoholic when...

When you have to explain to your parents why you decided to sleep in their garden shed rather than in your bed and this is not when you are not 15 or 16 this is when you are 43 years old and just visiting them!

And sadly all true. Cant you just picture the elderly teetotalling parents finding me unconscious in the garden shed after a big night out when I was on a visit home and me a granny meself. God the shame.... I think I found an old piece of scungy old carpet to use as a blanket. And the worst thing was I had the key in my pocket.

You know you're an alcoholic when...

...then wake up in the morning in a puddle of drool because you've probably been dreaming about it, although of course you don't remember your dream. You smell the pillow to check if the drool is vodka vomit or not. Yes you made it to your bed... somehow.

Have I done this one before? Or did I just tell someone about it on chat???

You know you're an alcoholic when...

yup... could write a book on my experiences..

I remember one of the first times I got together with my fiance..we were only kind of seeing each other as friends at the time and I was on a night out with a friend and she had to go home, but i decided to stay longer cos my son was spending the night over at my parents so I had nothing to rush back for.
The pub called for last orders, so ordered 2 large dry white wines (which meant you get the restof the bottle free) and stayed propped up at the bar until they said they had to close.. so I said Id just go to the loo, and took the bottle and glass with me... sneaked outside with it and sat on the curb trying to figure out (1) where I was, (2) why I was and (3) what the slimy thing crawling over my toes was.
I decided to phone him and him being the great guy he is, told me to stay put and he would come and take me home.
Unfortunately, I noticed a police car pulling up, so I made the decision to hide in a bush.
Once my b/f got there, he rang my mobile and said "Im here, where are you?", to which I just stuck my hand up out of the bush (complete with wine glass) and said "Im HERE... in the BUSH!"

God knows what he sees in me, lol.
