“My name is Skye, and I’m an alcoholic… I’m not here because I’m dying for a drink after ten years of sobriety.  Well, one slip-up in those seven years, but the past three – not a single tumble off the wagon.  And I’m also not here because I finally got wise to the fact that my lover is never gonna leave his wife for me.  No, I’m here because I’ve been involved with a man who did for me exactly what booze did.  He got me dreamin’ big and dreamin’ stupid, things I was gonna do and be that were never gonna happen.  He made me feel beautiful and loved and oh-so-high.  I thought, as long as I had him, everything else would be okay.  The problem was… I never really had him.  He never really loved me.  Oh, he said he did.  He even said he was going to leave his wife for me.  Talk about the oldest line in the book, right?  And I swallowed it… I swallowed all his lies over and over, and they felt good goin’ down.  Now, I have no one to blame buy myself.  So, maybe I’m a fool, but at least I’m a sober fool.  At least I know I’m my own worst enemy.  And that, believe me, is progress.” – Feb. 2000, at an AA meeting
