Turns out all is well at the internet cafe...

I think my reputation is gradually being restored... often there will be Timbits at a meeting, and I won't have any, or I'll just have a few...

These days, someone brings donuts, I'll only have one or two...

Last February I brought popcorn to a meeting, even though someone already brought cake...

Two Christmases ago I brought a BIG box of Splenda to a meeting room that has about 24 meetings a week... that box lasted 12 days... that was my 12 days of Christmas :stars:

I eat a lot of that stuff myself, but I'm saying at least take some in, and share.
Never taking any in, and eating like a pig isn't right, and rude.
If any is left over ask if anyone is taking it home with them it the person who bought the stuff isn't wanting it, most likely they will understand.
You will still be that guy though, oink ! oink !

Or there was the same guy eating all the pizza, or cake at the parties, he usually brought in a 2 liter, and he would guard that for himself. :angry:
Cake is a big thing for me too... and donuts... I have a reputation at my meetings for being that guy that eats too much cake and too many donuts... I'm working on it...

Then again, maybe if the group had just minded their own business instead of focusing on the candy bowl, the entire situation could've been avoided in the first place! :laugh:

1. Tuesday I made amends for something that happened 4 years ago... June 30, 2015, I was at a Tuesday night meeting, and I got into a dispute with a couple of members over me eating too many of the candies from the group's candy bowl... I threw a candy at someone, threw coffee on someone, ran out, hopped on three different buses, sought refuge at a local breakwater, and spent the next day (Canada Day) on the run... I stayed away for 4 years because I thought for sure that they would never forgive me... anyway, Tuesday I finally went back, and it turns out that they forgave me 4 years ago, and they want me to keep coming back...
I remember that one, you where paranoid for a few weeks over that.
Just don't take the forgiveness for granted, I'm sure you took care of that cheek being turned.

Oh, and the Reject Rodeo section of Poo Cashew has removed guest posting... whatever... I'm hardly ever online anyway...

2. Wednesday morning I found out that someone I know from my meetings has just moved into my building... I confessed to them that I've only been sober since Monday night... I can no longer go to/from the liquor store, or they'll find out... it's a mixed blessing... on the one hand, I love the thought of finally having some accountability and some supervision in my life... but on the other hand, it's so frustrating that I can't drink anymore... all I can do is overeat... I overate last night... I overate this morning... I unintentionally purged this morning on my way to work...

I remember those little chocolate liquor candies from a few years ago :laugh:

Shoppers Drug Mart and Target used to have them at Christmas time, but Target left Canada in 2015, and I haven't seen them at Shoppers Drug Mart in a few years :(

All in all, not too much happening in my life... work, family, meetings... it's really a Bermuda triangle in a way... gonna maybe pop in to the internet cafe every other Friday to print off my pay stubs... half an hour of internet every couple of weeks, I really have come a long way...

See ya next time :)

Last week was the Royal Flush of all weeks... worked Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, Easter Sunday, and Easter Monday... also, Easter Sunday was a relative's birthday... also, Easter Monday was Earth Day... everyone else got time off over the Easter long weekend, but not me...

This week isn't too great either... we are short-staffed like crazy... tomorrow in particular will be a shit-show... my boss seriously needs to hire more people, and/or distribute the weekend shifts equally among all staff... I'm sick of always being the weekend guy...

Let me tell you this... You'd have to be a pretty hard core boozer to be able to keep that shit down... I just couldn't stomach it even with total determination.
I used to be able to, but not anymore... my taste buds have matured... it's beer or wine or mixed drinks for me...

I heard the Injuns and drunks were even stealing those hand sanitizer bags from the hand pumps, and drinking that!

Good times!

So, even if I miss out on alcohol, imagine all the fun I can have with other stuff...
For realz? Nasty. Stay away from that shit.

Enjoy the time off RDL
