You too. (Sound like you were a pistol!)
I have a lot of sympathy and empathy for alcoholics. It just breaks my heart when I see young people who are clearly alcoholic, but who don't realize it ... yet. I know so much how they feel that it's just crazy. And I know how helpless I am to anything but convince them that they are strong, worthy, and smart enough to do right by themselves someday. I don't even mention alcoholism -- it just raises their hackles and makes them defensive. I just let them know that I don't drink anymore because I got banged up and/or tossed in jail too much.
