I will gladly serve margaritas and shots of tequila at work with a smile... And remember the time I got alcohol poisoning from the stuff- not a fun experience! Did it keep me away from the stuff? Don't be silly! Of course it didn't!!
Tequila hangovers were BAD. Amazing that I survived.
Tequila Hangover
Amen to that!!! ... ... ... as I recall, it's the only alcohol that I drank, that if I got a drink of water the next morning, I was instantly flat on my ass drunk again ... AND, it's the only alcohol that gave me a headache ... (I never got headaches with any other stuff ... but man, did I love Tequila ...)(never ate the worm though ... heard they give you hallucinations ...)

Day by day, I'll work on making it a sober day with the help of fellowship!!
Tequila=To Kill Ya
These Tequila hangovers were the first hangovers to make me shake........think that made me stop?! Nope.
Wonder why Tequila has a special day?!
I'll celebrate Nat. Teeq. Day by taking tomorrow off, away from hot temperatures, punk-ass co-workers and douchebag customers. I might even go to a face to face meeting.
Many years ago, when I was in the midst of my drinking, I house-sat for a friend that was traveling to Mexico. She brought me back a bottle of very smooth Tequila, which I proceeded to drink in one sitting. The funny thing is, I knew I had a problem back in those days. Denial wasn't a big part of my illness. If someone had said to me, "You know, you might be an alcoholic," I would have agreed. I tried to quit all sorts of ways - on my own - to no avail.
Last night I did go to a meeting - Step 10 was the emphasis, and it was good to listen to others read and reflect on the 12&12. What a world of difference from my days as a drunk. Sometimes it feels like something that happened to somebody else, long long ago, in a galaxy far far away...
