Just one Brant?

 

Unlike all of the people that wanna see me , the only drink of the night that matters to me...or that I'm looking forward to...is the first .

Beyond that it's like a ceremony...it's not about me anymore, but about all the others that wanna see it. I wasn't an alcoholic before and I'm not planning to be one now...I am just looking forward to regaining my access to the full range of flavors that I haven't been able to experience for the last year.

 

I totally understand...I was just ribbing you. I certainly can appreciate how the first one will be the best for you!!!! ;thumbup:



MASSIVE KUDOS...to you for keeping a VERY HARD, challenging resolution! I will most certainly raise a glass in your honor tonight

 

Denial.

 

Didn't mean to sound that harsh...sorry. I know you were just ribbin' me and I took it as such. I guess it's sorta like when you're unemployed and looking for a job and people keep asking you how the job search is going and all you can say is you're still unemployed.

This is something that's just grown far beyond me. Well, actually, it's something that I probably really couldn't have done without my friends. It was actually all the ribbing and jokes and taunting over the last year from my friends that kept my resolve intact.

I owe all of you and all my other friends a debt of gratitude for helping me make it through this, so I guess you could say that tonight the first will be raised to all of YOU!

 

Now get drunk already WILL YA

 

We'll see what happens. First things first...gotta get cleaned up and go get some breakfast and run errands. I'll deal with the part later...

 

won't the west coasters be getting calls before the new year has even hit...

 

are you drunk yet ???

 

This works out ok, because I'll probably be talking to the East Coasters before I even head out to the party at Jerry's house tonight...
