I believe that recovery, though difficult sometimes, is a lot more fun than the alternative. Glad to see that you had a great party. I am having a lot of fun just reading other members postings and trying to contribute a bit here and there.
Your going to crack up over this Raman. My neighbors are Jordanian and invited me over for some hookah smoke
made sure there was no hashish in the stuff first of course LOL just some kind of fruit tobacco sweet and aromic and quite calming.
I did ALOT of fishing last year and had alot of great times out with a few friends, i've had to ditch one of them pretty much because of his drug use which was a bummer but you can't help those who don't want it and my time was up with him
I also got to be at my sisters wedding and this week I am going to get to see my sister have her baby I can't wait for that I know I am going to break down SO hard holding that little girl..........
Beautiful pics the happiness shines all everyones face, this life is good, now.
Yeah, like BigV exclaimed, Raman, you have a pretty girlfriend and still complain that you are lonely???
That's not fair, man

Something humorous posted by a member at another 12 Step fellowship online forum:
For women to laugh at because they know it is true and for men to know to avoid getting into too much trouble too often with their partners:
Words Women Use:
1.) FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
2.) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five Minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
3.) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with 'nothing' usually end in 'fine'.
4.) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of 'nothing'.)
6.) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. 'That's okay' means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7.) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say 'you're welcome'.
8.) Whatever: Is a woman's way of saying F YOU!
9.) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking, "what's wrong", for the woman's response refer to # 3.
Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology. Send this to all the women you know to give them a good laugh, cause they know its true.
