I broke my fricken foot last night after being a dumb ass and rushing down a flight of stairs at home after polishing off almost a full bottle of whiskey. Of course while I was still drunk it didn't hurt to bad so decided just to sleep it off. Woke up this morning and couldn't walk After my wife and a few others begged me to go to the emergency room I caved and did. A few Xrays later showed I broke my fricken foot in 2 different spots, one being a very bad break according to the doctor Before anyone responds with cocky comments, yes I realise it was my fault, I was a complete dumb ass, etc,etc,etc. I however am giving up drinking for at least the time being, which will result in no drunken posts on this board from me = win, win for all DP users!
As Tom Hanks in League of their own put it: I've quit drinking. So you've seen the errors of your ways? No, I just can't afford it anymore.
Ouch that sucks. Good thing you got it checked out. Hope that atleast the pain is gone soon. Hope you have a quick recovery.
It certainly is a win for all the DP members. Now the forums are going to be junk free at least for the time being Get well soon!
Good luck with your foot hrrmmmmmbee-el-cantra. (that's how it always sound in my head when I reply to your posts), wish you all the best.. a Spirit Walker should at least be able to crawl up the stairs..
I agree, when you lose control, quitting can be the only option. I have cut down drastically. And everytime I drink, I regret it or part of what I did the next day. I'm learning however to drink responsibly. I think everyone needs to find a life style he is comfortable with and can continue living without falling back to the old ways. That is why I hate new years resolutions, they are all BS. When you can't stick to something, you may just get pissed off and go from e.g 1 pack of cigs to 1 1/2.
he, he, don't tempt me...Doc gave me good pain killers for that. Thank you, at least it was a wussy injury. At least IMO a foot injury is kind of gay Thanks, and now if we could only get the spammers to stop. Thank you, and stairs oh my god that was the worst. I'm thankful I had some crutches left over from my previous knee surgeries otherwise I don't know how I would have even gotten to the doc. Yep totally agree. I actually wasn't all that smashed, but the buzz I had did directly to some extent cause me to slip and then not land properly. In my defense I was rushing to get something done so that I could join the wife for some,,,ummm marital fun
lol, to be honest: lately when I get hammered (once or twice a month now compared to 3-4 times a week as I used to), I start forgetting stuff. It used to be that I have a high tolerance and felt invincible. I'm kinda glad that I no longer do. Like they say "all things must come to an end". The college years are gone. Kinda sucks, but hey ... c'est la vis!
I am new here and i don't know you but i hope you get well soon. I am happy to hear someone else made a nice desicion about his life again
Isn't it weird how some people get so wasted all the time and then you have a guy like Nintendo who doesn't even know what alcohol tastes like
HAHA. The only way it would have been funnier is if you would have passed out outside and been mounted by a farm animal.
HA HA- hrbl...dumbass! When I was in my early twenties we used to go out every night...(seven nights a week) and get piss drunk and start fights. One summer I got a broken hand, a chipped tooth, a few rounds of stitches and a majorly bruised tail bone (the worst injury of all). So I decided when I tuned 25 that I would limit my drinking to one night a week. And now I don't even drink that often*. * I just got back from the liquor store w/ 8 Best ICE 24oz-ers for DA BEARS game tomorrow!
