[QUOTE=pinkie;175948]Doggy..do you see it? Can you taste it? [QUOTE]

Well, I can barely see the cheerleaders - my eyesight ain't what it used to be. Satori, do you have a larger PICTURE (you with the dirty minds out there) of your mates for a more proper evaluation of their cheerleading qualifications pwetty pwease???? **said in the sweetest voice evah**

Pinkie, how are you tasting these applicants through the internet? Oh - that isn't what you were talking about??? So sowee........

I dunno Booze Bustin' Ladies. Would you like Satori and his mates to cheer for you during your 30 Days AF celebrations?????????? I think it's only fair that more people get to enjoy the pictures oops I mean have input to our male cheerleading squad.

Day 29 AF!!! WHEE!!! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

Hi Doggy - I certainly have larger copies of the photos - but I don't know how to post them I'm afraid.
Attachments are severely limited in size.

Anyone care to enlighten me of a way to do it?

Perhaps it is safer if I can't post them to be honest - could you imagine this place with all you ladies all "hot and bothered" at the same time????

Wouldn't like me and my mates to be responsible for the mayhem that would follow!!!

Scary!

OMG, now that picture is funny...I made the mistake of opening it while taking a sip of Diet Coke, do you have any idea how uncomfortable Diet Coke is coming out the nose???

Satori, you are one sexy man...but we do need to get rid of that stick coming out of your hair. You could put someones eye out while cheering with that! And those eyebrows, we might need to consider waxing.

I have to agree with Doggy, bigger is better!

Thanks for a great laugh!

Great !!! If Satori and his friends are going to cheer I will throw in my cake and ice cream tickets along with my shoe and handbag tickets (as my wine and beer tickets are long gone !!). Of course this will be at the 30 day AF finish line. A ways to go as finishing up Day 15 here. So you girls will be half way around the second lap. An early CONGRATS to you !!!

Holy Hannah

You know, I used to be tired and bleary eyed getting up to go to work in the morning because I'd been up drinking till late the night before - now I am tiired and bleary eyed in the morning because I have to wait for hubby to get off the computer and that isn't until pretty late, usually, so I can get my "fix" - I think I am just switching addictions here.

Satori - What is this, a bit by bit reveal? First the face, then a shoulder shot, then a full body shot, and then what - will you start stripping? Ladies, should we take a vote? Satori, I would be very, verrrrryyyyy scarrrred - you are pretty much the token male in a thread full of hormonal women!!!:H SWMBO should be worried......Congrats Satori, on day 21, going on 22!

Listen, I need to announce to the world that I have discovered that I too have abs. With not having drunk for 20 days now (20!!!!!!) I have not durnk enough calories that I can now actually see what those torture machines at the gym are doing for my midsection. Too bad that it isn't until I am OLD that I have abs I could show off but am much too inhibited (and don't forget old!) to run around in those belly button baring tops - and would probably hyperventilate from sucking it in all the time. Also, I may have abs but my butt and boobs also seem to have disappeared, what's up with that? Can we not be selective? Oh well.....

DG - tomorrow is the big day! :rockon: Wow, Wow, Wow. What are you going to do to celebrate? You should at the very least go out for supper, or go buy a killer outfit, or something!!!!!! Way proud of you, girl!!!!!!! Glad to hear you will be sticking around, to keep the rest of us in line, boot our butts or whatever it takes......

Sorry to hear about Kimba, but you are definitely doing the right thing. What is a false pregnancy tho? Have never heard of that. Hope she comes through the surgery and is much healthier for it. My own doggygirl, Misty, has been through so much in her life, but it's a long story so i'll tell it another time, and warn you at the beginning to stop and go make a sandwich before you begin. Let's just say that vet bill wise she is worth a small fortune, and as hubby says, is pound for pound definitely the most expensive meat in the house!

Pinkie - Congrats to you too, and hope you will also be sticking around? We would find you, you know, if you tried to get away.......

Hi Finding my Feet - Nice to meet you. We all hope to be 75 + days AF someday too! I'm sure your will breeze thru the wedding w no problemo!!

:danthin: ********************:danthin: My 20 AF stars!

Night all, have a good one, talk at ya tomorrow!

BOOZE BUSTERS 30 Day Challenge - Week of 8/1

Hello Satori and DG and all... Thanks for your welcomes... AND I really look forward to reading that those who were at the door of 30 opened it cheering as I am for you... It's right there for everyone else - keep going!

Well, my feet...um, they seem closer to me now that I'm not 'off my head' !! Don't know where the name came from really; just always been really ungrounded and going AF helped that so...I'm finding my feet at last! Actually they've hurt lots since stopping - I'm sure there's a really big esoteric link there but can't think of one just now! BTW, "If you're that far along...I'm sure the wedding will be just fine".... ?!?!?!?! No need to look at my abs then is there...? Just saw that sentence in a different light and had a right larf!! Thanks! Chance would be fine thing!!

DG - Thanks. yea, I'm really looking forward to the wedding day...I don't know why I'm worried about booze at it coz I don't want/need it I know but....soooh many tales of 'oooh, look out for 'wet' occasions!!' etc. (hmmm, at AA!) and I do know that I may have those days under my belt but I have only been exposed to drink about 3 times at any 'events'... I mean there's some in the cupboard here but that doesn't worry me and I've been to pubs half a dozen times etc?!?!... Weird, eh?!?! Probably worried about something totally different and sticking it on booze...it's coming clearer so thanks for letting me ramble! ('Brill' by the way is just short for brilliant and it was!! )

Right, off into the sunshine (hooray!) after 3 letters to finance companies - ugh, ugh, guh but I'll feel good when I've done them.

Thinking of you all...

Feet (!) x

BOOZE BUSTERS 30 Day Challenge - Week of 8/1

Hiya Feet - nice sunny day up here too!

Hmm - I see that my "that far along" post might have been misinterpreted!


Glad to have you here as our guide! Yep I am sure most of us here will make that first 30 (Doggy does so TODAY I think!!!)

GO DOGGY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

Hannah

Well done on discovering the abs - don't worry about your butt and boobs disappearing - I have a couple of abs - but no butt to speak of or boobs either - can't say I've missed 'em!

Well done on your AF run - Oh - and you are only as old as you allow yourself to feel!
As you can tell from my avatar I am no spring chicken - but I still fell like 18!
(SWMBO says I act more like 10 most of the time ........and her point is?????? )

Pinkie - sorry about the nasal coke explosion - but I tried to warn you! Satori's physical perfection is just too much for mere mortal women.

As to waxing my eyebrow - Are you NUTZ???
They are part of my identity! As a famed martial arts master, I can defeat 100 warriors in combat any day of the week - but there is no way I'm letting some mad woman near ME with hot wax! Brings tears to my eyes just THINKING abuout it!

Hannah - as for the bit by bit reveal - I think Pinkie has proved that any more disrobing would be just TOO risky so I shall stay modestly attired from now on!

Morning everyone else when you get here - Star, I'm sure YOU will be along later - you are doing great.

Talk to you later

Day 22 here I come

Gym tonite (there HAS to be a second ab in there somewhere!!!) - but I,m NOT worried about the bar afterwards - it will be just fine! There is NO way I'm spoiling this run!

Good morning everyone!!!

Today is Doggy's 30th day AF!!! Doggy Rocks!!! :rockband:
I wonder where she is, as this is pretty late for her. Satori, did you send your mates over to her for a congratulatory cheer??

One half of the quit sista's is at the finish line! Dont worry, I will be right behind you in less than 24 hours!

Satori, glad you found another ab the balance will help with your cheering ability!

Feet, another grats to you! When is the wedding? I know from a recent experience that I worried more about the up coming event but when it was acutally here, I did better than I ever thought possible! You have come this far, there is no stopping you now!

My bike is calling, I must be off to locate my own abs..ab..non-abs...whatever! Happy Thursday to everyone!

Hi Everyone: I just finished my first 30 AF days yesterday & am starting my second today. I'm joining this thread but don't have time to read it now. I just want to say "hi" & will be in touch later after I've had time to read this whole thing start to finish. I love being sober! Love, Mary

[Doggygirl]

BOOZE BUSTERS 30 Day Challenge - Week of 8/1

HELLO BOOZE BUSTERS!!! It's a might fine day 30 here today, even though I had to WAIT until so late to access the internet!!!!! :durn: (OH I feel so much better after stomping my feet - WOW I guess that means I know where my feet are....)

Hi Lilac and congrats on Day 16!!! You're on the back half of 30 now - the home stretch is near. And just THINK of the hot male cheerleaders who are waiting for you there!! (they are VERY HOT!! Trust me on this!! Eye candy extrordenaire (sp or is that even a word!)

Hannah now if we get in some sort of twubble over these cheerleaders, I'm going to tattle that YOU are the one who brought up stripping. Not me. Congratulations on finding your abs!!!! WHEEE!! And of course on Day 21 AF too!! I have plenty of extra butt and boobs I'm trying to get rid of. What's your address and I'll send you some. ***warning*** my cup size is "Long." Mr. Doggy and I will be devouring crab legs tonight in honor of my 30 days AF!!

Hi Feet!! LOL on the "If you're that far along....." No wonder your feet went missing. I know what you mean about being places where drinking (and for me smoking) is going on even though I choose not to. I learned a bunch of stuff when I quit smoking that applies to quitting the booze as well. One of them is that at some stage, I need to "practice" being in difficult situations where triggers about. If I shelter myself too much, I can never truly get past the triggers where they don't bother me much, if at all. Maybe "practice' some situations where there is drinking even though you're not before the wedding? The nice thing about setting up "practice" is that you can control the time you spend there, etc. etc. It helped me a LOT when I quit smoking.

HI PINKIE!!! Congrats on Day 29 and I'll be cheering you on tomorrow!!!!! LOL on the hot wax for Satori. We should tell SWMBO about that so if she ever needs to get the upper hand, all she has to do is pick up a little pot of hot wax and show it to Satori.

Satori, congrats on Day 22! Your star collection is lookin' mighty fine. Doesn't it feel good to just KNOW you won't drink today, even though you will stop by the bar with your pals? WHEE!!!! Where's the stinkin' puking smilie???? I need that to express my true feelings about male cheerleaders in modest attire.

Hi Mary and welcome to the Booze Bustin' loony bin!!! Make sure to bring a sandwich when you set out to read the whole thread. OH...and here is the Booze Beast - offering free kicks today on special! 73581982 - Fotosearch Stock Photography

I hope I didn't forget anybody!! I'm heading down to take care of Miss Kimba who HATES being in that lamp shade thing. (that cone around her head so she can't lick and bite at her stitches). Then I'm off to pick up at least one pair of my new glasses.

Will return later!! Have an awesome Booze Bustin' Day!!

BOOZE BUSTERS 30 Day Challenge - Week of 8/1

Hi Everyone: My goodness! I only got through part of this thread. It'll have to be a small piece-at-a-time reading. I'm doing well today & will check in regularly. I have some challenges coming up but won't plan until they get closer. Last night, we went to a cocktail party w/plenty of booze on hand: wine, spirits, pitchers of margaritas & mojitos. I didn't feel tempted at all because:
a. I was on my 30th day of sobriety.
b. I wouldn't be able to stop.
I enjoyed a sober party. It's a little different wo/the social lubrication of a drink, but the gift of not doing or saying anything foolish overrules any kind of temporary discomfort.

I would not be here today wo/MWO. Thank you all! Mary

I'm in! I'm in!

Hi there! I really want to try this. I'm on day 3 and my goal was 30 days anyhow. So count me in! This is exciting. I won;t be able to come here on weekends though cuase we go to our cottage and no puter there. It'll be tough up there I tell you. This is where we have so much fun and a drink just seems to go with everything. I do think though that it'll be just as much fun waking up and feeling great and not having to pretend I'm ok to everyone anymore!

Way to go guys!

Hey all! Thanks for your words and tips - the wedding is on the 1st Sept. I went girlie shopping with my daughter today for it - great! Got me a hat! (And I don't do hats...but this one, well, bride's mum and all that!) Yes, I think I'll be too busy talking (who, me?!?!) to drink really! I do like the thought I heard that 'think about what I can bring to the party rather than anything else' - kind of keeps things positive.
Satori - yes, they're not back there - but it's such a cute smilie and, without booze, I have to admit to feeling pretty shy so... Hows the abs? Enjoy the gym later.... Best in the picture now eh?!
Lynnie - hello... keep going this weekend - discover that you don't neeed the stuff to enjoy yourself. I thought of a child in Africa needing water so desperately when I started and had a glass of water for them instead of thinking it 'should 'be booze... helped me loads. I kept checking the Water Aid website and seeing the pictures.... in all their suffering they probably don't realise how much they helped this girl in the afluent uk! Very grateful...
Love all round.
