Happy Birthday dusty!

Lost - you're doing really well. The boredom gets easier, honest.

HoochiMama · 04/02/2018 07:49

Happy belated birthday Dusty!

Despite my best efforts I am still surfing. Tried to get Mr Rehab to come over in a cab last night after getting very drunk. Thankfully he wasn't having any of it. This is what happens when I drink, think I prefer the January sober me Hmm

Happy Sunday all, I'm off to nurse my tequila fuelled hangover Sad

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 04/02/2018 10:47

Tried to get a cab to Mr Rehab, he said No, No ,No .. I love that song Wink

I had a very wobbly evening too. Phoned the local dealer but he was out watching snooker. Inconsiderate arsehole!

Woken up to the sun shining and a normal head which is a bonus. Glad about the snooker now Grin

Hope you feel better soon Hooch. I'm prescribing lots of fluids and cheese on toast.

Very good Lost! I love a bit of Amy too. Sounds like we both swerved it big time Smile

serialtester · 04/02/2018 15:41

Well done both of you!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 09/02/2018 18:08

Bon soir mes amies. Wine It's Friday and I'm trying not to get sucked into the Danger Zone vortex.
Week 4 here which is usually a stumbling block. Think I might reward myself with someting for reaching the month mark (obvs not drug related) Hmm

Shout out to fellow surfers Smile

Lost you peng ting, loving the street slang! Wanna come to my yard and chat woof? Can you tell I'm down with the kids not. Good luck with the surfing, you can do 4 weeks! Thank the Lord it's half term, we're off on a city break tomoz so on best behaviour here. It's only in UK so will still be wet and cold but a break none the less. Happy Friday!

How's it going lost?

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 10/02/2018 09:51

Went overboard like the weak willed wally I am. I'm so predictable. It wasn't even that great after the first line!
Back to the beginners pool with my surfboard. Sad

Never mind lost!

serialtester · 17/02/2018 23:53

Fallen off my board big time tonight. I'm an idiot. 3 months down the pan. Or up the nose. Dreading tomorrow morning.

serialtester · 18/02/2018 00:40

I'm home now, on the comedown. Tomorrow is a write off. I'm a fucking idiot.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 18/02/2018 09:31

Oh Serial we're all idiots, you're not alone. I hate that first bit of the comedown after taking a lot- that horrible feeling of dread like you're falling off a cliff.
Look after yourself today rather than kicking yourself Brew

And come and join me splashing about in the beginner's area.! Smile

Week 1 clean for me here. I should be feeling great but woken up with some sort of stye on my eye. Bloody typical.

OP posts:
serialtester · 18/02/2018 10:47

Thanks Lost - I don't feel too dreadful, which is amazing.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 18/02/2018 10:52

Ah you probably have one of those gradual comedowns that creep up on you as the day wears on Grin
Don't be too hard on yourself. It's bloody difficult to resist the temptation because it feels so great at the time!

At least you didn't start a thread about being high this time..he he
#oven dish: part 2.

HoochiMama · 18/02/2018 11:04

Hey ladies, I went overboard on Weds after 8 weeks, completely pre planned, saw it as a half term treat Hmm Sometimes its good to have a reminder of how crap it makes you feel as I'd been craving for ages. Hope you don't feel too bad today Serial. Don't see it as 3 months down the pan, that still counts and this is just a blip. I'll join you in the beginners pool with my float. Flowers for the stye in your eye Lost!

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 18/02/2018 11:15

It sounds awful but I find it very difficult to imagine never getting high ever again so I suppose I'm always going to be susceptible to the odd blow out.
If I could keep it to every 2 or 3 months like you two that would be good!

Anyway, you're welcome to join us in the baby pool Hooch. We're back to basic surfing with floats and foamy noodle things.

Checking in haven't caught up so sorry not to make relevant comments but missing you all. Been pretty much surfing except for one night of last ?3 weeks having kitchen extension so life gone temp mad but sending love to all.

ILostItInTheEarlyNineties · 22/02/2018 08:10

Waves to Ponz in her building site
If anything's going to turn you to drugs it's sharing your house with builders. I should know, I live with one ha ha.
Stay strong.Smile

Have fully recovered from my splosh the other weekend. Mentally/emotionally the comedown took me to a really dark place. And all the time a voice in my head was telling me that a line would make it better.

Hope you're all ok surfer dudes. Surfing is better than skiing.
