    Falling Apart

    Hey RC and Over! Missed you posts when I was writting out the rest of my list. As you can see I'm not as amazing as you like to think. Its not like I quit drinking on the first try. I was really in denial that I had a problem. It took hitting rock bottom and losing everything for me to realize it was time to stop. I do feel as if I've been reborn. But it going to take awhile for the world to see that.
    What I forgot to put on that is the countless times I acted like an ass. I'm so glad to be sober now.
    Sober since 4/8/10 -OVER 150 DAYS AND GOING AF!!!!

        Thanks Over I'm glad you all can get something out of my screwed up life. Funny I never put everything that happened to me all together like that. That alone is sobering. I can't believe I coulve died twice. Helps put a new perspective on life.
        You can do it Over. You just have to find your strength. I just realized to day how much of a functioning addict in denial I was!

          Also when I looked at it I can really see the difference in your face from the previous one you posted
          Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.

                      Hey Girly and Over. I'm sure everyone has done things on that list. It was the near death things that hit me hard today. I never realized the true meaning when it happened kinda laughed it off at the time.

                      Sorry Over I don't even know who Katy Perry is! I'm serious LoL. I'm outta touch I guess.

                      Still trying to see how I'm a inspiration. But I'm glad to be helping some of you.

                        Your not missing much, shes just an average pop singer. But Girly does look alot like her I think.

                        Well ya know what Sk8, you say you have a messed up life, but at least you have a messed up SOBER life. You got alot going for you with that. I know people at my work who you would called successful in life, but since I know their dirty little secrets called addiction, well their success to me dont look all that great. I'd rather have a sober messed up life, than a successful addiction life anyday!!!!

                                Falling Apart

                                Don't know if I can top that one Mama! Let's see...Back when I was playing bass in a band, me and my girlfriend had been going out for a short time. Anyway we thought it be fun to drink Wild Irish Rose while playing. I finished one bottle myself. Don't even remember finishing the set. So we unload to equipment off stage and take it out side to the van. I go to step off the curb but my legs don't work I fall flat on my face breaking my nose. I calmly get back up and walk back in with blood pouring out of my face. My girlfriend freaks and has to help me to the car. When we get home I manage to fall out of the car and crawl across the stone driveway. Cutting my arms and knees the whole way. I just remember showering the next day being one of the most painful things ever.
                                Here's a good sober story. Happened 3 years ago on the 4th of July. I was skating a 8ft pool and locked up on a grind. I went flying to the bottom breaking 3 ribs and dislocating my shoulder. I stood up and pushed my shoulder back in place and mangaed to crawl out of the pool. Drove home and had a couple beers. My girlfriend begged me to go to the hospital but I told her I was fine. Went out to see fireworks later that night. I couldn't raise my right arm more than a few inches. My armpit was black and completly swollen. It hurt to breath because of the ribs. But still never went to the hospital. My arm works fine now but my right shoulder is about a quarter inch lower than my left and still pops out every once in awhile.
