      Slippery, what a disappointment. There's so many SE's you've missed out on.

            No I did not. It was just some common sounding chap talking about how he likes to do things to cats. TO mind, not WITH or FOR. All very strange and by the sounds of it possibly quite traumatic for the poor cats. You young people do listen to some odd things on your ghetto blasters these days.

              Seriously though, that's fantastic stuff Slippery! Don't be alarmed if it turns out you have to go a little higher though. Maybe you'll get a chance to experience those SE's, if nothing else!

                  Bleep - please elaborate on your wisdom. I know there's a hidden meaning there

                  B - I like your thinking! And thanks

                    Nah, no hidden meaning. I'm drawing mostly off Murph's experience, where he found a "false" indifference at a level, and later had to go up past it. That may or may not be the case here, but either way, it's no biggie. In fact, come to think of it, there is only Murph who has had that that I can recall, so it's probably nothing to concern yourself with. It's more that it is fresh in my mind, having just happened, that made me think of it, so let me say Congratulations!

                        Yeah, don't base anything on anything that may or may not have happened or I reported as happening to me. 'Cos I'm special.:nutso:

                          Well, I made it a week AF free until tonight. I truly do feel like a normal person now, except I lack the coping skills that many people have developed throughout their lives. All the same, I'm confident that I can learn them over time and finally lead a normal life.

                          The one thing I haven't decided on yet is whether I'd want to moderate or abstain. It would be great and all in 20 years time to say "I've been sober for 20 years", however with bac I don't feel like I need to hide and announce my alcoholism to the world like an AA'er would. If that makes sense...

                            Amazing stuff! Well done Slippery.

                            You know, you can moderate, and still say you've been sober for 20 years. They aren't mutually exclusive. Tricky to get it right every single time. I think that unless you actually make a decision to abstain, you'll end up moderating. Abstinence is still a choice, indifferent or not. But at least it's no longer the life-threatening choice it was this time last month!

                              Yeah, what Bleep said.

                              Pete, why'd you get pissed last night? Or did you just have a drink and not over do it?

                                I bought a couple beers and was feeling nice. Then I realized that I've never just had a couple beers, so I bought some more, and it looks like I'll be getting pissed.

                                To answer your question: social situations. Had a rough day with a friend and my roomie, and decided that cushioning my reality would be nice. Walking to the store I knew it was a mistake, but fuck.
