Hey, Jenn, do you get the feeling that Paula would have about as much fun as you and I at one certain bar with some certain hot tomales, and I don't mean the food. LOL Like Jenn said, Hi, Paula. I think we've already shared a few drinks, but it's nice to say howdy to the person sharing your table. Or, if you do like me, just walk over to an already crowded table in an overcrowded bar and sit down. After they get done wondering who the hell you are, you introduce yourself and ask one of them to dance. Male. Female. It doesn't matter. Just ask. After that, they won't kick you away from the table. LOL. LA LaurieAnne

Question: Has anyone here ever been labled an "alcoholic"? If the twelve cheap Miller Lights I just had make me an alcoholic, Hmmmm...I must consider having another beer. No hard stuff though. Has this thread become another A.A. meeting? Where's my smokes and my 12 step booklet? http://www.drbennett.2ya.com |

I'm a drunk, not an alcoholic. Alcoholics have to go to those damned meetings. This is a lighter thread, so mellow out. www.stevenshrewsbury.com |

Gee, (grins) thanks. Virginia is justs on the way to visit friends in NC. My husband and I plan to take probably memorial weekend and drive down there for a visit. I'll wave going through. Of course, I've never been published. I'm just the one doing the publishing. LOL LA www.authorsinkbooks.com LaurieAnne

Alcoholic? No. I've been called a lush, a slut, a bitch, a whore, a tramp, a little tipsy, falling off my chair drunk (only on the rare occasion; I like to remember what I've done), and sometimes a partier. But I have never been called an alcoholic. If I have extra money after all the bills, groceries, and medical crap has been paid, I'm lucky to go out once every 2 weeks. Really lucky if I can make it 2 weeks in a row. Normally, it's just about once a quarter or once a month. LA LaurieAnne

I can't afford to be an alcoholic. Yes LA, I do believe Paula could be initiated into the club, *wink, wink, nudge, nudge*. Paula, we're going to Indiana (I think.. I just go where I'm told) for the Mindsight gathering thingy... you're welcome to join us of course. We don't bite... hard. Jenn Jennifer Lynn www.jenniferlynn.ca |

Not sure that I can make it, but it's worth a try! Also, my 20th high school reunion is this year in Florida. Damn! I wanted to go to that too! Guess I gotta start selling stuff...lol! (by the way... what do you gals do for initiation? getting a little nervous! lol) Paula B Papapetrou Fallen On My Knees |

I don't believe everyone here is from PA...just a large number... I figured the initiation had to do with the initiatee chanting the words: "Thank you, ma'am, may I have another?" oh well... ;-P |

Tulla, Well OF COURSE it did. I AM a heathen, afterall. Daughter of a trucker and a truckstop waittress. Totally rotten influences, if you ask me. And my hubby knows ANY TIME I am going to a show. I don't hide it. Hiding things is what gets relationships in trouble because without trust, you have nothing......... ..........sorry, that's my soapbox issue: trust. Anyhow, it's been a few months. Almost time to find another friend who needs to be embarrassed and blindfold her on the way in the door so she doesn't realize it. LOL LaurieAnne

Don't forget to wave the money over her head....that seems to attract the scantly clad men smelling of coconut oil..........mmmmmmmm and of course your poor unexpected friend.... Amen to trust and have to add respect. BUT I did not start going to shows till after I was divorced from the blankey blank. It is art after all. Plus I seen the women show and think the men do better entertaining then the women do anyways. LOL |

Steven, I laughed out loud when I read your post above..."That thing". I can relate, bro. It's more like "What is that thing that resembles a human being, but looks a bit odd?" Never been called an alcoholic myself, but I have been seen drunk on many occasions. Having a cold one as we speak. It takes the edge off of self-consciousness and opens up doors that many dare to open. Some left better closed. - Dee Ray Bee - http://www.drbennett.2ya.com |

Well, I was going to pass after seeing all of the above, but what the hell.... Barkeep! TWO rounds for everyone. On me! Now, some may be wondering why I'm doing this. Well, get your drinks and relax. I'll fill you in as soon as I take care of a few more "work" matters.

I think I've just become a genius... I'm sitting here drinking a bottle of Heineken's. The only reason that I bought this beer is that one of the characters in my third book drinks it and I wanted to make sure that I spelled the name right when referring to it in the text. That makes it research, right? Tax deductible? Maybe I should have a guy who drinks Coursevior... |

right on, Dennis.... and when you make that guy up, share a drink of that Couvosier, but you should go all the way and make it Couvosier L'Esprit Decantur Cognac with me (however, I would settle for the Brillet Heritage 50 year), OK, or you can get a bottle of Pomme D'Eve Calvado, that's good stuff. But then you would have to make them into more urbane type guys, who only smoke Macanudo's. Maybe that wouldn't work too well. Claudia |

I’m doing research for a book too. I need to find out how it feels to drink a cold beer while relaxing. It is very difficult to experience this to the full. That is why I have to keep on trying until I can describe every emotion that this situation brings me. It is a very, very hard existence, but I owe it to my readers. I just have to go on and suffer. It is my burden.
