i'MMMMMMM BAAAAAACK!

A man can lose his identity when he has no means of transportation or money in his wallet. He can feel like a caged tiger and the sense of helplessness takes over. Eventually he crawls into a funk of deep depression and completely loses his touch of reality. So never ever mess with a man’s vehicle or his money.
I am gainfully employed back in the measurement biz and I can’t tell you how excited I am to be working for two of the best in the Oil & Gas Measurement.  http://www.dralco.com/index.php    I feel like a little kid going to Six Flags for his first time. I am actually excited to go to bed so I can get up and go to work the next day. I wake up several times before my alarm clock even thinks about going off at 4:30am. My commute is the opposite of the general masses. I am heading west when they are all herding east.  Then I get to drive back east to FW from Weatherford with the afternoon sun on my back… not in my face!
I know eventually that this excitement will wear off, but I’m riding the pink cloud until it subsides. I love taking an order from scratch, detailing it out and then see the engineers draw it to life. Once the fabrication is complete, the thrill of seeing it in action drives me even harder to make sure that the next metering package is even better.

ALL BULLSHIT ASIDE… I LOVE MY NEW JOB!

PS> I apologize to my readers for my absence. I have been sober for (9.07 months) (276 days) or (6,626 hours) and I love my life! I hope to share more about my everyday living experiences rather than focus on the lack of any struggle I use to have keeping the bottle from my lips.

Thank you Syd! You are a drunk's (sober drunk's) dream... You work an outstanding program.

Great day, great message, great guy! Keep it up. Keep referring back to this day and the feeling you're feeling and use this memory to help you stay on track. This kind of high is so much better than the other because you don't end up with a hangover or a total lack of memory of what happened last night or all last week! So proud of you! Love you so much. I'm proud of you whatever you do, but this is an extra special time. Savor it! love, Aunt Mary
