6. Well, I haven't had any alcohol or pills today.
And I don't take anything else that alters my mind.

And, although I did drink last night, I have long since sobered up. :shrug:

12. Too tired.
The fuckos upstairs run a discotheque or something directly above our bedroom. Every night at 2am they have an after bar. We haven't slept in a week.

21. No thanks.
When I am sober, I usually suffer the following symptoms:

-Eating lots of junk food
-Watching TV
-Laughing at inappropriate moments
-Falling asleep

When I partook of the smoke, the same things happened to me; so I gave that up. No sense in me spending money on something that makes me act the same way I do normally.

When I drink alcohol, however, there is always the chance that I will get in a fight! :bounce:

23. Well, if you count ALL the hours of the day...
...sleeping, working, and whatnot -- I suppose I would say that I *usually* am, too.

Still: :(

29. Yes, but that is a testament to your perseverance.
My sobriety is a testament to my laziness.

30. True.
But somehow my last hangover just won't go away...

Pain in the joints, tired, back hurts, overweight, lazy...

Oh, wait, I'm just getting old.

33. Seems like I'm always sober.
I usually get a migraine before I can get a buzz. Sober--it's a terrible way to spend your life.:cry:

35. I do drink hard liquor.
Vodka usually. What I'd really like is one of those intravenous morphine pump set-ups. Pain relief plus euphoria. ;-)
