The Differences
I’m following SuperSober (hate the name though) on Twitter & they posted a good quote today.
I may not always do the right thing, but at least today, I can usually tell the difference.

Fifth meeting. I ended up sharing the life approach that Chaz wrote about in Winning at Loser’s Games.
I seek to win Loser’s Games by simply not showing up.

The Late Night Bird
A friend and I were talking about how it was weird to see each other online during the daytime. We’ve been chatting during the wee hours of the morning because we’re both nocturnal like that. So when he signed off today and said, “The early bird gets the worm,” I had to counter with something [...]

I went to my fourth meeting Sunday night. On the way there I told the friend that I go with, “It’s been a week now and I’ve missed a total of 3 days. Missing one day, I’m fine. Two days in a row though, feels like too long. Not that I start craving a drink [...]

Bumper Wisdom
During our outing today, we were behind a truck with some bumper stickers that made us laugh. Keep in mind, we’re in the heart of the Bible belt, where the idiocy of Glen Beck & Rush Limbaugh are praised, so not only are such bumper stickers appreciated, they give us hope

Three meetings in five days. This time it was a N.A. meeting, which includes drugs and alcohol. Since I was also on prescribed drugs, it makes more sense for me to attend those, though both types of meetings have been great. Unlike my A.A. meetings, I actually shared at this one. My words rushed and [...]

I went to my second meeting tonight and dammit to hell if I’m not on the brink of crying each time. A guy, tattooed to the neck, rough all around, spoke like some sort of vagabondic vangelist. To be surprised like that really changes how you look at people. It’s like being blindsided on some [...]

Mad as Hell
Howard Beale: I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It’s a depression. Everybody’s out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel’s work, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in [...]

I was reading about Philip K. Dick and his writings tonight and came across one of his quotes.
