Clean and Sober


Funny how life gets so busy that we forget the little things. Recently I had an anniversary that I totally forgot. This is not the usual anniversary where I need to apologize to a woman or look for a new one. Drinking for me is an issue. I cannot take just one drink and I have no control for like most things, I only know two speeds: WFO (wide freaking open) or OFF. For years I drank and did things that were to some bad. That life style came to an abrupt halt and I was forced to make a simple choice. I had no question and made it completely. Now my friends have a driver and I am in a better place. For my anniversary, congratulations on a life choice that is better for you!

We did it all together and were inseparable but being pre internet and Facebook we did little in talking over the year so we made up for it when we could. Being a teenager at a large competition of other teenagers was daunting but crazy rewarding. We had the run of NC State University in the summer and we demonstrated our zest for life in all we did. I vividly remember a girl name Helena from 4H camp. She was everything beautiful and different (thanks Keith Urban “Stup...
