I had a lot of willpower.....for years I managed to stop trying to quit drinking. I always hated the sight of liquor....that's why I drank it so fast. There were times that if I got any higher....I would have needed a safety harness. Occasionally, I was held up by friends on my way home....it was the only way I could get there. It only took me one drink to get drunk....can't remember now if it was the 8th or 9th....? I only drank when I was with someone.....or when I was by myself. I was a very public spirited person....I always drank spirits in public. I always knew that alcohol was slow poison....but I didn't mind, I wasn't in a hurry. One time I decided to cut back on my drinking....so I made a vow to only drink on days ending in "y". Once, I went into a bar and saw a sign that said, "All you can drink for $5....I threw down a ten and told the bartender, "Make mine a double!"
