thank
you
for
having
me
out
here
when
I
introduce
myself
to
you
introduce
myself
as
an
Alan
or
because
I
like
to
talk
about
that
for
just
a
moment
because
because
like
I've
already
said
I
want
you
to
know
exactly
where
I
come
from
in
the
same
when
I
got
here
Labor
Day
weekend
nineteen
eighty
two
I've
got
to
be
America
surely
be
merry
to
an
alcoholic
who
made
me
an
hour
and
what
I
found
out
over
the
past
twenty
years
is
it
be
Merritt
her
qualifies
me
for
I
don't
know
but
it
doesn't
make
me
an
element
and
there's
several
things
that
I
do
in
my
life
today
a
real
regular
basis
in
order
to
stand
up
here
and
tell
you
that
I'm
a
member
of
Elena
and
I
want
to
Cher
to
through
the
two
or
three
of
those
things
with
you
right
quick
the
first
thing
I
do
have
J.
allies
I
suit
up
show
up
in
occupy
that
year
in
an
al
anon
meeting
on
a
real
regular
basis
no
I
know
that
this
is
a
program
of
action
I
know
that
you
can't
get
it
by
osmosis
because
I
try
the
first
seven
months
that
I
was
here
I
tried
to
sit
in
that
chair
rub
up
against
you
and
get
your
recovery
to
rub
off
on
me
and
and
of
course
it
doesn't
happen
that
way
but
I
I
also
know
that
again
for
certain
showing
up
in
occupying
it
Cher
let
me
explain
it
to
you
another
way
yeah
I
could
take
that
chair
not
to
take
it
out
to
the
back
of
the
lot
and
I
could
put
it
in
the
middle
of
checking
group
and
I
can
occupy
that
chair
in
the
middle
of
a
chicken
coop
everyday
for
twenty
years
and
guess
what
yeah
I
still
wouldn't
be
a
check
that's
right
but
let
me
suggest
this
to
you
if
I
did
that
every
day
for
twenty
years
at
the
end
of
that
time
I
would
know
a
whole
lot
about
chickens
and
I
would
know
a
whole
lot
about
how
the
successful
chickens
get
it
done
where
you
hear
what
I'm
saying
yes
yes
Sir
nothing
showing
up
in
occupied
the
chair
that
I'm
and
I'm
meeting
with
those
winters
that
were
there
for
me
and
watching
them
and
seeing
what
they
do
is
there
that
I
began
to
get
an
idea
of
the
changes
that
I
will
have
to
make
if
I'm
going
to
be
like
you
when
I
grow
now
the
next
thing
I
tell
you
this
afternoon
on
that
day
and
I
don't
know
and
and
remember
this
is
this
is
just
what
works
for
me
is
I
have
to
have
a
home
group
no
my
whole
group
is
a
Wednesday
night
discussion
meeting
invest
Robert
when
I
got
here
at
like
today
we
can
I
just
do
I
don't
need
a
whole
group
when
I
got
here
I
did
need
Alamo
because
you
see
there
was
nothing
wrong
with
me
I
got
here
while
and
it
took
me
several
months
of
sitting
in
your
meetings
to
learn
just
how
sick
I
was
in
just
how
much
help
I
need
but
you
see
that
pretty
much
little
bit
my
wife
went
to
they
had
some
upper
call
family
week
no
I
called
it
hell
week
because
that's
what
I
want
but
million
two
teenage
kids
went
up
and
moved
in
and
stayed
up
here
from
Monday
to
Friday
and
I
don't
have
I
learned
some
stuff
up
and
one
of
the
things
I
heard
if
there
was
they
said
the
people
that
get
out
of
here
to
stay
sober
or
the
one
to
go
to
high
and
my
job
changed
and
in
the
snap
of
a
finger
because
you
see
he
shouldn't
drink
anymore
we're
going
to
be
okay
and
I
told
you
that
with
all
the
sincerity
in
my
heart
and
so
she
went
Hey
she
won
a
very
few
more
and
she
did
great
with
me
all
right
to
my
job
now
let's
take
well
then
the
other
thing
I
heard
up
there
that
that
was
important
once
they
said
it's
a
good
idea
to
go
to
ninety
meetings
in
ninety
days
so
we
did
yeah
if
you
don't
know
and
you
understand
that
but
I
want
lower
it
for
me
you
see
I
was
going
to
make
sure
that
she
was
very
and
we're
sitting
right
down
there
on
the
front
row
when
I
speaker
got
offered
said
something
pulled
up
popular
with
other
because
I
was
listening
real
close
James
I'm
usually
I
mean
if
you're
still
a
little
bit
of
a
fog
and
she's
going
to
have
some
questions
when
we
got
home
and
I
will
have
to
be
able
to
answer
and
then
I
began
to
learn
something
as
we
went
to
these
ninety
meetings
in
ninety
days
learn
something
important
back
to
Hey
Hey
here's
what
I
learned
I
learned
the
job
got
real
television
by
several
things
in
your
program
one
of
the
things
that
you've
got
television
about
in
your
program
is
something
called
close
meetings
got
real
science
K.
series
case
because
of
that
I
came
and
we
showed
up
for
a
bathroom
we
won't
be
in
yeah
Hey
is
met
me
at
the
door
I'm
sorry
bro
you
can
come
in
here
for
you
don't
understand
hi
my
Jones
well
you
know
and
they
said
no
though
it's
time
to
to
turn
her
over
to
us
it's
time
that
you
put
her
in
our
or
and
there's
a
meeting
on
the
rumor
was
that
you've
been
needing
to
go
to
any
and
you're
not
so
gently
shove
me
toward
the
Alan
on
well
if
you
ever
come
to
best
for
taking
my
home
group
you'll
see
that
the
door
to
the
Allen
room
is
at
the
back
of
the
room
and
it's
a
long
narrow
room
when
you
walk
in
the
podiums
wait
out
the
other
end
of
the
room
well
I'll
go
over
there
and
I
hadn't
got
a
I'm
not
into
sponsorship
and
I'm
not
into
work
and
stay
up
to
already
told
is
nothing
wrong
with
me
I'm
just
driving
her
and
so
I
was
still
in
Elizabeth
this
disease
and
it
isn't
for
me
mais
our
sponsor
must
near
the
first
seven
months
zero
sponsored
myself
and
I
had
a
food
for
his
phone
so
I've
got
only
time
sponsors
name
and
I'm
not
sure
which
and
we
go
along
to
that
several
different
ways
that
you
can
identify
overtime
sponsorship
at
a
price
for
you
that
you
have
old
time
sponsorship
one
of
the
greatest
gift
of
god
given
me
in
this
way
of
law
does
have
sponsorship
but
when
I
I'm
times
better
stormy
I
have
to
be
at
every
meeting
at
least
thirty
minutes
Sir
and
I
have
to
be
prepared
to
stay
till
it's
over
must
purchase
of
taught
me
that
I'm
a
lot
of
meetings
last
an
hour
but
some
go
longer
than
that
and
so
I'm
supposed
to
be
here
thirty
minutes
before
prepared
to
stay
to
work
till
it's
over
to
the
work
is
done
well
I
went
into
that
yet
so
I
went
over
and
went
down
and
it
was
three
minutes
to
eight
and
I
stopped
I
took
a
look
inside
that
room
there
was
twenty
three
when
one
other
guy
sit
right
down
from
R.
M.
man
and
I
got
a
seat
by
here

have
the
meeting

the
meeting
was
over

said
the
lord's
prayer
and
he
turned
round
interviews
just
have
too
many
awesome
man
Carmen
I'm
glad
there's
at
least
one
other
guy
here
and
he
started
laughing
the
softball
I'm
moving
to
Florida
in
the
morning
it
is
about
nine
years
I'm
glad
to
meet
you
for
retail
but
you
know
what
I've
learned
over
the
last
twenty
years
is
that
was
god
taken
here
both
right
in
and
out
to
god
wouldn't
do
nothing
for
me
right
D.
was
regard
was
getting
totally
out
of
time
because
I
have
such
a
sick
puppy
is
taking
all
twenty
three
and
I
was
jailed
for
me
and
it's
already
been
that
had
a
problem
I
just
don't
know
what
we
did
so
god
just
cleared
it
out
for
me
and
so
the
meeting
is
over
and
and
and
please
tell
him
to
come
up
with
me
to
me
with
smiles
on
their
faces
and
their
thanking
me
for
being
there
and
hold
on
a
minute
well
ladies
I
let's
don't
let
this
thing
get
too
far
out
of
high
I'm
I'm
not
in
here
because
of
violent
no
I
don't
I
know
it's
a
good
program
and
I
know
that
is
really
help
some
you
know
but
there's
nothing
wrong
with
me
and
I
don't
need
this
and
the
only
reason
I'm
in
here
is
because
they
told
me
I
couldn't
stay
out
there
say
I'm
just
here
I
just
drove
make
sure
she's
at
her
mate
you're
welcome
I
just
throw
dogs
around
me
and
hugged
me
and
they
begin
to
read
gently
pull
me
into
this
thing
and
they
use
hooks
that
I
didn't
even
know
they
were
used
and
they
didn't
tell
me
you
know
well
the
first
name
again
to
use
with
me
was
something
called
left
I'm
talking
bout
the
hooks
to
get
kept
me
coming
back
to
my
miracle
could
happen
remember
the
laughter
when
you
first
got
here
was
it
is
important
to
you
as
it
was
to
me
as
it
still
is
today
as
you
see
I
think
laughter
is
a
form
of
healing
in
our
focus
you
and
I
remember
that
last
problem
remember
that
first
meeting
we
had
that
night
it
was
a
speaker
meeting
and
we
have
one
of
our
loan
terms
they
won't
let
me
Carlos
that's
all
alone
one
of
a
long
time
Sherrin
story
that
mac
and
so
they
got
to
make
open
she
won't
bands
podium
and
she
says
hi
my
name
is
Doris
it's
just
been
fourteen
years
since
I
had
to
play
on
a
murder
did
you
know
I
just
like
everybody
except
me
new
so
I
would
assume
that
no
no
no
because
I
just
like
to
put
you
out
of
any
of
those
you
can
you
hear
I've
been
playing
it
murder
to
go
killer
deal
god
she's
done
but
but
the
strongest
form
if
you
were
full
of
laughter
and
and
all
and
I
realized
before
the
meeting
was
over
it
nobody
was
life
and
a
half
dollars
they
were
laughing
with
her
and
she
was
laughing
as
hard
as
anybody
in
that
laughter
became
very
very
important
to
me
let
me
tell
you
another
hook
they
begin
to
use
only
that
very
first
nine
and
and
that's
something
called
hoax
we're
housing
group
down
my
way
we
heard
you
when
you
get
there
and
we
heard
you
when
you
leave
and
in
the
middle
of
a
meeting
if
you
suck
man
you're
a
pain
in
your
heart
and
you
need
a
hug
somebody
just
laughing
get
up
walk
across
the
room
and
give
you
we
believe
in
the
healing
power
of
hoax
yeah
but
I
don't
I
don't
know
who
help
when
I
got
there
and
I
already
told
you
what
I
told
him
that
that
that
I
didn't
have
I
didn't
have
any
business
being
there
now
this
is
true
this
is
what
they
did
for
me
that's
a
loner
when
they
took
it
should
put
it
all
the
way
to
back
not
back
here
by
the
door
most
and
that's
about
all
we
know
that
you
don't
want
to
be
in
here
so
the
nice
if
you're
here
this
is
far
in
this
room
is
you
have
to
and
and
a
nice
feature
here
won't
allow
anybody
else
to
sit
in
that
chair
that's
your
chair
ma'am
they
assigned
a
woman
to
me
I
still
won't
admit
this
today
and
they
change
that
Roman
on
a
monthly
basis
because
we
believe
in
rotation
and
here
was
her
job
the
way
we
told
our
meetings
at
my
home
group
is
that
we
standard
we
hold
hands
and
we
close
with
the
lower
price
not
being
sponsored
by
old
timers
I've
been
told
that
the
lord's
prayer
ends
with
the
word
Amy
because
my
home
group
we
don't
say
anything
or
do
anything
after
the
word
Hey
me
so
we
would
stand
to
close
the
meeting
and
we
would
hold
hands
while
everybody
had
their
eyes
closed
ever
who
was
assigned
to
ME
would
slip
all
the
service
Becker
but
we'll
do
and
her
job
was
to
get
between
me
and
the
door
so
she
reset
IT
me
it
all
started
for
the
door
Hey
should
and
she
gave
me
that
going
ho
ho
and
of
course
when
she
gave
me
that
going
home
she's
whisper
those
words
in
my
are
you
keep
coming
back
cause
we
need
you
you
needed
me
I
was
going
to
be
bringing
her
to
that
other
meeting
in
here
because
what
I
didn't
tell
you
was
that
I've
been
reading
some
of
your
literature
and
the
lifeboat
was
beginning
to
go
well
here
is
the
the
talk
about
the
kind
of
things
that
they
kept
doing
to
me
it
can't
be
coming
back
maybe
two
but
the
last
thing
was
that
they
used
to
pull
me
into
this
and
I
still
use
only
today
and
that's
something
that
I've
already
heard
mentioned
here
this
weekend
and
I'm
glad
they
did
something
called
unconditional
love
hello
Gail
started
pouring
out
unconditional
love
to
me
the
very
first
night
and
they
still
just
cover
me
up
with
unconditional
love
to
die
Hey
in
the
beginning
I
had
no
concept
of
what
that
will
and
they
didn't
put
a
name
on
it
at
that
time
they
just
did
yeah
but
as
time
went
on
I
began
to
hear
about
this
thing
called
on
conditional
love
and
I
begin
to
realize
that
that's
what
those
girls
was
well
for
only
and
that
there
was
not
I
can't
wait
knowing
the
time
that
they
said
now
here's
the
pay
back
here
and
I
begin
to
realize
I'm
conditional
Lowe
has
no
type
and
so
I've
got
several
years
ago
I
got
a
little
bit
concerned
about
this
I
got
concerned
because
I
realize
that
I
have
to
Coleman
absolute
pro
at
receiving
unconditional
I'm
date
is
eight
many
better
than
me
it's
soaking
up
that
unconditional
love
when
I
got
concerned
about
and
I'm
serious
about
this
was
was
out
doing
the
job
that
I
was
supposed
to
in
returning
that
unconditional
was
not
as
proficient
as
I
should
be
in
giving
back
though
and
could
you
still
love
it's
been
so
freely
given
to
me
well
I
did
do
a
thing
well
I
did
it
like
always
doing
things
off
to
get
the
books
I
read
about
unconditional
I
begin
to
to
rub
up
against
these
long
timers
when
I
went
to
purchase
lucky
and
and
I
used
to
hate
C.
maker
because
I
knew
I
had
something
my
mother
and
I
will
but
I
want
to
know
so
tell
me
what
you
think
about
the
tech
give
me
your
opinion
of
unconditional
love
you
and
I
got
more
and
more
confused
and
then
about
five
years
ago
I
was
sitting
in
San
Diego
California
one
of
these
things
in
front
and
there
was
a
upper
and
he
was
given
is
tell
and
he
set
me
free
he
gave
me
my
answer
about
unconditional
love
because
from
the
podium
that
night
that
may
I
begin
to
talk
to
me
about
the
relationship
he
had
with
the
god
of
his
understanding
and
let
me
tell
you
it
was
powerful
powerful
relationship
that
man
was
in
tune
with
god
it's
too
early
as
today
they
begin
to
talk
about
that
from
the
podium
and
he
said
you
know
he
said
I've
come
to
the
conclusion
that
mopping
his
job
today
is
to
stay
in
good
standing
with
the
god
of
my
understanding
and
they
said
well
I'm
okay
this
was
withdrawn
tomorrow
understanding
is
they've
got
to
come
through
me
and
use
me
as
an
estimate
of
his
love
and
he
can
love
use
roommate
he
said
that
your
job
is
to
work
on
your
relationship
with
god
and
when
you
get
everything
okay
this
way
will
drop
would
use
you
as
an
instrument
of
his
and
he'll
Love
Me
through
you
I
broke
one
of
dial
me
you
did
it
all
over
again
you've
been
running
around
out
there
trying
to
follow
up
on
that
how
to
be
perfect
it
unconditional
long
when
there's
only
one
who's
perfect
condition
so
since
that
time
I've
quit
working
on
how
trying
to
perfect
unconditional
love
and
I'm
up
in
my
relationship
with
your
so
that
when
I'm
into
with
god
god
would
use
me
as
an
instrument
of
his
love
and
love
you
through
me
and
I
invite
you
to
start
doing
that
in
your
or
so
so
that
god
can
Love
Me
three
years
and
this
is
the
kind
of
things
that
those
gals
there
under
my
home
group
started
using
may
early
hold
old
timers
god
gave
him
to
me
just
pulled
a
memo
laugh
when
a
guy
he
knew
just
how
sick
I
wasn't
just
time
attorney
yes
because
that
was
to
become
a
hold
for
the
next
day
do
an
auditorium
and
Avalon
is
because
I
have
spoke
to
and
now
I've
just
had
to
change
sponsors
not
just
just
just
completed
that
process
and
it
hadn't
been
a
whole
lot
of
full
because
I've
had
the
same
sponsors
for
twenty
years
since
I've
been
here
engine
for
and
god
love
him
they're
just
got
totaled
and
we
don't
live
as
close
together
we
used
to
live
about
two
miles
a
partner
it's
about
four
fifty
or
sixty
miles
apart
and
they
don't
get
out
and
travel
we
can't
have
the
relationship
that
but
let
me
tell
you
they
brought
me
and
raised
me
in
this
way
of
life
good
old
time
sponsorship
I've
drive
address
in
years
seven
months
and
got
a
sick
because
I
had
to
get
there
weren't
any
other
male
Elena
and
for
me
that
has
to
be
a
sponsor
so
I
asked
this
lady
named
friend
to
be
my
last
box
let
me
tell
you
about
freight
friends
old
enough
to
be
my
mom
Fran
came
and
L.
nine
and
nineteen
sixty
ward
and
she
believes
in
service
and
she's
raised
me
and
service
and
she's
a
pass
delegate
and
she's
taught
me
the
importance
of
service
in
this
way
of
life
is
your
greatest
possibly
that
night
with
one
condition
that's
a
what's
the
condition
she
said
I'll
sponsor
you
the
only
way
I
know
to
sponsor
all
sports
do
you
like
I've
been
structured
in
steps
if
you're
one
of
the
night
to
make
a
conscious
commitment
to
me
to
take
these
twelve
spiritual
principles
and
then
the
minimum
in
your
life
on
a
daily
basis
and
I'm
ready
to
take
you
by
the
hand
and
walk
with
you
but
that's
what
she's
done
for
the
past
twenty
years
about
ninety
days
into
this
relationship
we
knew
that
I
needed
to
talk
to
a
man
so
she
sent
me
out
there
any
I
I.
room
said
you
pick
you
a
man
that's
working
as
a
twelve
step
program
and
I
happened
to
pick
the
one
that
she'd
been
merit
to
over
forty
years
that
engine
for
a
have
been
my
guards
my
mentors
all
this
up
until
just
recently
but
let
me
tell
you
one
more
thing
what
they
do
you
when
when
I
went
back
to
her
and
I
said
well
I've
asked
Jim
to
be
a
part
of
this
relationship
and
Jim
said
to
me
and
you
and
him
had
to
sit
down
and
talk
and
she
said
yep
the
three
of
us
they'd
sit
down
talk
to
we
I
went
and
got
him
and
we
said
it
I
had
to
give
each
one
of
them
permission
to
talk
about
me
with
each
other
and
I
had
to
give
them
that
information
so
they
would
have
never
done
that
without
me
giving
him
that
permission
that's
that's
how
much
they
love
in
honor
of
this
way
of
life
but
it
took
away
from
me
you
see
the
deal
I
have
walk
around
you
and
you
and
you
and
you
and
I
and
they
took
away
from
me
the
possibility
that
I
might
you
know
you
get
them
against
each
other
and
they
did
that
because
I
Love
Me
because
they
knew
me
and
and
and
and
you
just
have
just
over
time
sponsorship
old
sponsorship
not
only
do
I
do
I
have
sponsors
today
I
support
your
folks
and
when
somebody
comes
to
bases
but
would
you
be
most
parts
are
you
know
what
to
tell
so
well
be
glad
to
but
there's
a
condition
and
if
you're
ready
to
take
a
walk
through
the
steps
and
implement
these
twelve
spiritual
principles
in
your
life
and
learn
how
to
develop
a
relationship
with
go
and
learn
how
to
live
a
life
based
on
spiritual
principles
I'm
ready
to
walk
with
you
that's
not
what
you're
here
for
I
just
don't
know
a
whole
lot
else
I've
got
to
call
for
and
I
guess
some
takers
and
I
guess
some
folks
or
so
well
I
so
sure
that's
what
I'm
here
for
but
you
know
put
it
after
in
the
front
in
the
beginning
we
don't
waste
a
whole
lot
of
time
we
know
what
we're
gonna
do
watch
full
movie
star
the
last
thing
I
do
in
order
to
tell
you
I'm
a
member
valentines
I
take
those
twelve
simple
steps
that
they
read
up
here
well
simple
step
for
very
complicated
person
and
the
very
best
of
my
ability
I
implemented
in
my
life
on
a
daily
basis
get
up
each
morning
having
to
talk
with
your
I'm
not
much
on
our
own
or
special
sure
and
special
meditation
terminal
and
that's
okay
for
those
that
are
I'm
just
not
one
of
those
my
my
account
regard
usually
begins
in
the
shop
because
that's
that's
where
My
Baby
here
and
and
and
we
have
a
token
I
invite
guardian
and
I
asked
him
to
take
charge
of
my
life
to
die
than
to
direct
my
life
today
and
to
help
me
to
be
of
value
to
you
it
is
not
off
thank
you
for
doing
that
and
that's
what
just
you
know
that's
what
this
thing
is
about
so
this
is
the
things
I
do
in
order
today
to
tell
you
that
I
remember
well
and
let
me
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
me
and
about
how
I
got
here
in
order
to
do
that
I
go
back
and
start
with
this
simple
statement
I
was
born
at
a
very
early
age
well
it's
necessary
to
go
back
and
start
there
because
you
see
I
have
been
in
the
middle
of
the
Deep
South
prospect
they
have
in
the
middle
of
the
Deep
South
and
I
live
in
the
middle
of
something
called
a
bottle
but
southern
Baptist
Bible
by
Robert
very
strict
religious
southern
Baptist
home
no
we
want
spiritual
but
let
me
tell
you
we
as
religious
Sunday
morning
Sunday
night
Wednesday
night
we
is
in
a
southern
Baptist
church
and
he
was
down
on
the
bed
and
this
went
on
through
my
late
teens
when
I
left
over
to
give
men
or
girls
when
I
was
almost
twenty
what's
important
about
this
time
in
my
life
is
it
it
was
it
during
this
period
that
I've
sold
a
concept
of
god
that
brought
into
adulthood
to
calls
me
some
trouble
yeah
I
I
went
back
and
I
know
it's
not
the
church's
file
because
I
remember
them
teaching
me
about
god
being
loving
god
being
forgiving
the
concept
that
I
brought
into
adulthood
was
god's
going
to
get
you
and
I
have
the
judging
and
punishing
god
he
was
set
up
in
a
in
a
great
white
throne
him
he's
keeping
tabs
on
both
and
I'm
returning
your
call
brimstone
preachers
we
had
an
unpleasant
Baptist
church
you
know
that
tell
you
you
ain't
got
to
do
it
you
just
gotta
find
well
but
also
do
you
know
did
pharmacy
a
slip
to
whom
so
this
is
this
is
this
is
my
concept
of
my
relationship
with
god
when
I
came
in
the
door
as
well
not
a
very
judging
others
are
punishing
god
my
late
teens
I
met
surely
we
started
dating
she
may
be
coming
from
that
that
southern
Baptist
home
I
went
around
and
drinking
and
didn't
know
nothing
about
drinking
she
come
from
not
broken
alcoholics
and
and
and
you
know
what
she
said
to
me
when
we
set
the
date
to
get
married
she
said
that
we
don't
break
in
our
home
and
I
said
well
it
just
suits
me
fine
because
I
didn't
have
a
great
one
here
and
you
know
she
didn't
write
and
because
you
know
because
of
her
relationship
with
with
her
her
alcoholic
dad
she
said
I'll
never
drive
so
we
we
set
out
on
this
thing
called
the
great
American
great
and
at
all
we
knew
about
last
was
it
you
had
to
work
hard
make
lots
of
money
and
have
a
nice
his
house
upon
the
highest
part
of
the
heel
and
one
had
the
biggest
picket
fence
was
one
of
the
most
successful
and
that's
what
our
life
was
about
chasing
a
dollar
so
and
we
became
good
we
both
have
good
jobs
it
took
us
a
year
we
saved
up
enough
money
balked
at
first
well
how
soon
after
you
take
you
know
the
one
I'm
told
that
three
little
bitty
bedroom

the
most
updated
and
one
by
half
that
was
smaller
than
that
live
in
the
front
yard

big
huge
backyard
with
a
chain
link
fence
for
the
dog
increased
and
we
had
an
employee
three
and
a
half
years
I
worked
with
merry
god
gave
us
the
most
beautiful
blonde
haired
blue
eyed
baby
boy
that
Derek
could
ever
will
and
my
cable
part
of
the
great
American
drive
seventeen
months
later
loan
came
the
most
beautiful
healthy
brown
eyed
girl
C.

a
part
of
the
great
American
drug
we
sat
down

took
stock

had
two
kids
we
have
two
cars
we
had
two
jobs
we
had
a
hello
Hey
for
calling
we
had
was
mortgaged
to
the
hilt
whatever
by
but
we're
just
chasing
that
dog
surely
had
to
go
back
to
work
we
needed
a
second
paycheck
which
went
back
to
work
actually
she
was
born

was
invited
to
join
a
social

best
it
should
be
it
and
we
was

the
late
summer

too
far

we
was
at
somebody's
big
nice
river
whole
bottom
out
member
was
a
nice
place
it
was
late
in
the
summer
and
and
and
we
was
there
and
I
was
having
this
big
party
and
you
know
this
manicured
low
and
they
had
these
lights
stronger
out
everywhere
and
the
music
was
soft
there's
a
gentle
breeze
blowing
in
that
mine
was
reflected
offered
river
and
I
woke
up
to
my
wife
and
handed
her
the
first
drink
she
ever
had
says
here
how
many
drinks
please
and
every
day
so
mad
alcoholism
but
boy
it
does
progress
to
neck
al
quick
it
wasn't
too
many
years
down
the
road
she
was
right
up
in
my
face
and
she
was
shaking
her
finger
and
she
was
saying
things
like
if
you
have
never
given
me
that
drink
I
wouldn't
be
the
way
I
am
today
well
I
don't
know
anything
about
alcoholism
all
I
knew
was
a
minor
relationship
was
changing
and
not
for
the
better
I
knew
that
our
financial
situation
was
changing
and
not
for
the
better
and
I
knew
that
our
family
life
was
changed
and
I
knew
that
does
trouble
started
when
the
drinking
store
so
what
I
did
was
hers
I
agreed
with
her
and
I
have
excuse
her
for
any
responsibility
for
anything
that
happens
as
a
result
of
the
drink
and
I
took
on
a
load
of
guilt
it
was
a
real
heavier
and
heavier
and
heavier
as
long
as
the
drinking
continue
it
almost
got
to
be
more
than
this
so
bored

could
stand
up

hours

sort

it
although
after
the
plan

not
working
or
something
but
I
am
showing
up
at
a
constant
level
for
the
user
what
are
doctors
emergency
room
it
took
thirty
Sir
stitches
so
when
I
first
entered
the
final
period
you
could
name
city
will
little
for
Bob
certain
to
tell
you
who
so
were
you
guys
don't
know
enough
ten
years
ago
I
was
out
in
the
backyard
working
with
Taylor
what
corrected
playing
and
it
grew
back
what
I'm
told
that
story
you
know
what
yeah
Bennett
a
former
staff
made
you
know
what
a
thousand
right
but
I've
heard
about
war
stories
over
over
this
twenty
years
whatever
it
is
about
stores
near
war
stories
of
the
site
all
the
fingers
are
different
the
times
are
different
names
are
different
you
get
all
that
out
of
the
way
you
know
wants
to
sign
hi
that's
what
war
stores
are
about
to
about
pay
and
we
heard
a
whole
lot
locked
what
I
want
to
do
for
a
few
minutes
to
share
with
you
a
few
of
the
pains
that
I
experienced
my
trip
to
active
homes
first
played
a
German
user
Payne
calling
how
about
you
but
let
me
tell
you
about
me
what
a
good
day
I
got
up
I
agree
with
the
man
I
I
don't
a
bad
day
I
got
up
I
agree
with
the
band
in
a
blind
run
it
right
and
I
have
been
raised
that
way
but
I
couldn't
figure
a
way
out
and
it's
saying
to
me
that
everything
that
was
happening
in
my
life
at
that
time
was
a
legitimate
calls
for
rain
you
know
what
I'm
talking
about
the
next
pain
that
share
with
you
is
a
pain
call
reserve
and
I
don't
know
what
resemble
once
told
I
got
hearing
you
talk
me
but
as
I
look
back
I
realize
I
was
living
my
life
full
of
reserve
because
you
see
the
timing
belt
so
that
if
you
lived
up
the
street
from
me
and
I
saw
you
and
your
wife
and
kids
out
in
the
yard
cut
no
longer
washing
the
car
cooking
at
first
saw
the
fame
after
doing
something
together
I
resented
you
because
alcoholism
it
taken
away
from
us
and
we
didn't
do
things
together
like
that
anymore
if
I
saw
you
and
your
family
get
in
your
car
come
by
my
house
going
somewhere
together
I
resented
you
because
we
didn't
go
places
together
as
a
family
anymore
and
of
course
when
you
about
my
house
if
your
if
your
car
was
a
little
nicer
than
by
I
resented
you
because
alcoholism
and
taken
the
nice
thing
is
we
didn't
have
a
many
more
the
biggest
reserve
one
of
all
my
resentment
god
because
you
see
I
was
convinced
that
god
was
punishing
me
we're
giving
surely
the
first
grade
to
put
the
whole
thing
in
motion
and
he
was
punishing
me
through
her
drinking
here's
how
my
players
with
Dan
if
you
could
call
operator
okay
bye
good
good
how
much
more
this
you
go
and
put
only
what
kind
of
god
or
use
it
would
continue
to
just
push
and
shove
a
poor
this
store
phone
me
source
service
are
not
legitimate
prior
so
you
don't
get
answers
to
those
kind
of
thing
but
here
again
that
was
my
relationship
with
god
you
see
when
I
found
that
there
was
a
balance
the
next
play
that
Cher
with
you
is
a
pain
I
hear
also
holds
talk
about
a
lot
and
and
and
and
it's
a
pain
call
loneliness
and
isolation
talked
about
it
last
night
and
and
I
I
agree
with
you
that
our
call
is
a
is
a
disease
of
loneliness
and
isolation
what
I
would
do
I
I
used
to
though
is
that
you
ain't
got
a
corner
on
that
market
we
know
about
loneliness
and
isolation
too
and
then
I
got
a
thing
to
do
with
how
many
people
are
in
the
road
some
of
the
longest
times
of
my
life
I've
been
in
crowded
room
surrounded
by
friends
but
you
see
we're
sitting
in
this
room
and
my
friends
are
having
a
good
time
real
genuine
true
good
tire
and
their
laughter
is
very
old
and
very
enjoying
themselves
and
I'm
sitting
over
there
without
on
fix
two
grand
that
we
use
to
hire
you
a
one
up
to
about
twenty
used
to
her
to
treat
and
I
will
go
head
around
it
you
know
what
to
say
how
could
you
be
having
so
much
for
how
can
you
be
set
up
you're
enjoying
yourself
if
you
had
a
stroke
wife
at
home
like
me
that
you
couldn't
sober
up
you
wouldn't
be
having
this
good
it
and
I
want
to
cry
out
to
you
that
will
say
can
you
tell
me
something
that
I
might
do
the
server
it
right
before
I
could
say
that's
a
red
flag
honor
no
no
you
don't
tell
them
about
that
you've
got
a
drunk
wife
at
home
but
you
can't
sober
or
say
this
is
the
middle
of
the
deep
sigh
and
you're
the
husband
and
you're
the
father
and
you're
the
head
of
the
family
and
if
I
tell
you
the
active
so
the
my
wife
did
I
give
into
that
also
trying
this
concerned
me
may
that's
a
pain
call
five
zero
thank
the
photo
I
was
at
the
top
of
my
profession

can
name
goodbye

was
involved

we
we

I
was
very
successful
in
their
but
I
walked
around
most
I
just
really
like
a
fight
cause
I
couldn't
give
my
wife's
over
this

where
I
was
living
my
life
July
of
nineteen

in
four
separate
lives

me
tell
you
that
torn
out
of
the
talks
about

re

come
through
that
home
when
is
it
absolutely
ravaged
at
the
same
ravaged
but
we
have
a
very
unwritten
rules
every
alcoholic
home
where
never
lose
you
don't
talk
about
what
you
have
to
do
it
our
houses
right
before
you
went
outside
you
stop
at
the
front
door
and
straightened
up

made
sure

was
in
place
including
that

and
you
went
out

told
the
world
that

we
were
dying
from
the
disease

we
didn't
even

fifteen
years

to
prep
just
a
little
bit
more
because
the
front
door
to
see
and
stop
and
talk
to
his
mom
for
just
a
minute
or
two
and
then
it
comes
out
and
gets
in
the
car
sometime
later
I
found
out
what
went
on
in
the
conversation
that
night
because
that
was
the
beginning
or
do
you
he
stopped
at
night
at
the
door
he
looked
at
his
mom
and
his
mom
when
we
get
home
tonight
you
can
be
passed
out
on
the
couch
passed
out
in
the
floor
where
are
you
going
to
be
passed
out
more
to
see
that
was
surely
is
imho
she
would
start
drinking
just
gonna
have
a
few
and
then
the
pricing
was
set
in
and
she's
out
of
control
and
and
should
pass
a
British
pastor
and
it
surely
was
here
tonight
she
would
share
this
with
you
and
I
have
a
permission
to
tell
you
when
he
said
that
to
her
she
raised
her
hand
to
slap
his
teeth
how
dare
he
has
her
so
consulter
more
and
she
raised
her
hand
to
slap
his
teeth
division
one
in
front
of
her
the
last
time
that
her
dropping
dead
had
beat
her
with
a
belt
buckle
into
the
bell
she
screamed
out
of
him
and
she
had
said
that
if
god
ever
allows
me
to
have
kids
never
let
him
know
and
here
she
was
prepared
to
slap
her
son's
teeth
out
and
she
couldn't
do
not
drink
and
have
something
to
do
with
it
because
she
had
a
drink
in
this
I
mark
didn't
wait
for
the
answer
in
the
slap
didn't
have
to
happen
thank
god
it
didn't
he
came
and
got
the
car
we
were
to
the
boulder
we're
going
home
at
night
and
you
saw
was
different
and
you
saw
it
was
different
because
when
I
pulled
in
the
driveway

front
door
was
open
and
I
saw
surely
moving
around
inside
she
one
pastor
and
it
was
well
past
a
past
amount
we
got
out
of
the
car
to
win
in
the
house
and
she
met
me
at
the
door
and
she's
a
bow

can't
live
this
way
anymore

five
minutes
later
I

started
that
very
first
session
and
it's
what
I
needed
to
hear
I
mean

took
terror
me
throughout
the
thing
because
the
very
first
session
they
started
telling

couldn't
control
it

I
couldn't
hear

near
killed
myself
front
what
I
needed
to
hear
was
that
I
didn't
close
it
because
you
know
what
I
took
up
there
to
that
treatment
center
with
me
so
set
lotus
deal
it
was
still
getting
heavier
and
heavier
than
his
address
my
sponsor

Taylor

got
a
code
in
time
well
this
time
she
checks
over

the
very
first
day

I
started
that
process
why
C.
N.
of
sharing
that
low
to
do
I
finish
the
process
an
element
when
I
started
to
write
the
initiating
that
loaded
you
that
was
getting
unbearable
the
next
thing
that
happened
up

is

had
a

don't
know

got
the
civic

got
things

your
passenger

I
S.

and
spiritual
growth

some
relief

terrible
for
made

knew
nothing
about

the
one
who
drives
in

fourth
step

so
I
could
you
make
it
through
the
first
day
she
said
you
still
got
got
sent
up
there
judging
you
and
punishing
you
until
you
do
something
about
your
concept
of
god

make
a
whole
lot
more
progress
in
this
way
along

I
I

an
A.
N.
N.
elements

Jim
reached
out

about
I
am
to
come
with
me
so
we
were
there
on
the
steps
of
his
house
and
into
the
is
based
on
interviews
starting
and
we
sat
on
his
desk
and
he
pulled
out
a
book
fair
and
it
was
called
the
big
book
malfunction
of
thanks
for
and
he
opened
up
that
book
to
the
chapter
to
the
gnostic
and
he
took
me
under
that
chapter
it
was
right
there
in
the
big
book
of
Alcoholics
Anonymous
that
afternoon
in
this
chapter
to
the
gnostic
I
found
the
girl
but
I
have
in
my
life
to
the
it
is
no
longer
a
John
of
judgment
and
perdition
is
regarded
as
one
of
Palmer
as
a
result
of
the
Jan
Newman
yes
it
in
for
that
long
so
I
was
a
well
right
this
new
because
up
to
god
all
right
I'm
also
running
no
and
I
won't
running
just
as
hard
away
from
god
is
not
to
I'll
see
in
a
southern
Baptist
church
when
you
turned
it
over
to
god
you
have
to
become
a
Sunday
school
director
all
right
saying
the
rest
or
you
know
maybe
even
a
mission
there
you
know
how
much
it
turned
over
to
I
want
out
of

with
any
of
the
so
I
was
running
from
the
thank
god
mother
got
it
I
have
to
very
lovely
and
so
because
it
allows
me
to
run
from
him
whenever
I
want
to
they
give
me
a
free
will
and
allows
me
to
use
your
house
really
just
just
as
miserable
as
I
have
to
get
when
I
get
is
what
I
can
you
stand
it
anymore
then
I
turn
around
and
he's
as
close
as

D.
N.
Y.

how
to
get
away
from
hello

Lochleven

I
decided
I'd
go
to
work
I
should
be
miserable
and
get
paid
for
and
I
tried
to
make
it
to
work
that
morning
but
you
see
I
got
about
half
way
to
working
in
a
former
truck

on
the
side
of
the
road

a
brief
over

going
to
have
to

got
whatever

do
it
was
a
girl
that's
a
far
GMO
that's

I
look
back

realize
what
I
did

five
minutes
later
Wednesday
morning
Zafar
Iqbal
was
general
manager

I
looked
around
real
hard

best
general
manager
was
available

gonna
this
is
Bob

the
previous
job
I've
had
in
my
life
is
to
keep
both
starred
thank
god
how
are
yeah
so
then
I
began
to
experience
more
spiritual
growth
and
and
we
begin
to
experience
as
the
book
tells
us
when
the
spiritual
melodies
overcome
they
will
strike
now
mentally
and
physically
and
with
and
we
even
begin
to
experience
some
financial
recovery
they
were
five
and
a
half
years
into
this
thing
and
in
this
tragedy
happens
in
our
lives
and
the
tragedy
is
that
our
twenty
year
old
son
Mike
was
killed
by
a
drunk
driver

and
and
and
but
here's
the
reason
I
share
this
with
you

not
the
only
people
who
have
ever
lost
but
I
won't
tell
you
something
god
had
us
and
I
I
you
know
I
don't
know
now
the
thing
for
five
and
a
half
years
giving
us
a
place
to
work
for
a
spiritual
base
to
sustain
us
when
this
happened

when
those
policemen
knocked
on
our

I
hope

within
forty
five
minutes
of

getting
the
news
March
this
I
in
Alan
on
was
in
our
home
I
needed
something
different
see
the
rest
of
the
family
came
and
got
tired
I
had
to
go
home
the
church
came
brought
that
fried
chicken
and
try
to
sell
it
hello
Hey
and
I
don't
know
I
don't
know
if
the
engine
in
the
state
twenty
four
hours
that
the
new
look
that
is
new
so
we're
not
here
with
that
since
we
don't
understand
this
anymore
than
you
we
don't
have
the
answers
to
this
what
we
have
is
we
have
open
arms
a
bit
and
we
have
soft
Chester

have
big
hearts
and
we
won't
four
arms
around
you
and
love
you
through
this
if
you
will
let
us
that's
what
you've
been
doing
for
the
past
fifteen
years
login
issues
all
right
so
powerful
moves
well
the
last
time
I
saw
my
soon
learn
because
I
enjoyed
he's
still
the
nine
o'clock
on
a
Tuesday
night
seven
o'clock
on
Tuesday
morning
he
was
leaving
to
go
to
work
the
same
family
send
them
a
picture
of
the
Cup
coffee
I
don't
know
his
younger
today
I'm
going
to
work
it
was
about
three
steps
toward
the
front
door
stop
turn
around
look
at
me
this
is
I
love
you
do
you
dory
with
I'm
here
tonight
not
only
to
report
to
you
that
but
thank
you
program
because
you
see
you
taught
us
how
to
live
that
way
rooms
are
beautiful
folks
just
like
you
we
want
to
live
in
that
way
when
we
got
here
I
don't
tell
you
Sir
ma'am
that
one
nobody
has
left
to
be
made
twenty
million
that
boy
we
use
okay
and
that's
that's
Friday
morning
when
I
walked
up
to
his
desk
I
didn't
have
to
stand
there
sorry
man
I
needed
to
talk
to
you
about
one
more
thing
for
which
we
know
no
it
was
done
do
you
good
no
I'm
convinced
today
and
then
we'll
move
on
from
there
so
I'm
from
this
today
because
I've
walked
through
the
deepest
darkest
family
that
is
that
it
will
ever
have
trouble
no
no
so
what
should
happen
to
see
see
the
value
would
be
just
as
the
just
to
start
but
it
wouldn't
be
any
deeper
it
would
be
eighty
dollars
the
good
news
is
offering
to
you
is
that
I
have
never
taken
one
step
of
that
local
low
every
step
of
the
wall
Hey
and
I
don't
know
intended
by
this
I
god
help
me
by
this
it
was
made
up
walk
together
what
do
you
and
I
came
here
twenty
years
ago
to
learn
how
to
keep
my
wife
so
well
we
begin
to
walk
through
that
this
is
not
your
job
in
order
to
route
them
to
her
lost
and
he
won't
know
nobody
works
do
you
need
he
was
riding
the
big
book
of
Alcoholics
unknown
Bob
had
five
years
of
good
sponsored
big
book
twelve
steps
so
bright
and
they
fell
in
love
and
set
the
date
to
get
married
they
wanted
to
get
married
in
the
same
chart
for
me
and
Charlie
got
mad
so
he
made
sure
to
the
Max
thirty
nine
years
and
we
dated
for
five
years
and
so
I
wanted
to
get
married
at
Saint
John
the
Baptist
church
days
if
it
weren't
for
me
and
surely
it
might
work
for
them
well
we
have
a
counselor
afternoon
hello
we
it
was
a
retired
Methodist
minister
and
he
stayed
involved
in
our
lives
and
we've
been
friends
let's
call
how
would
how
would
serve
well
I
sure
right
nobody
go
manner
you
too
but
maybe
it's
always
up
to
date
and
we
get
after
that
so
the
birds
church
service
I
will
tell
you
so
it
was
an
absolute
awesome
sign
we
had
a
big
terrible
over
there
right
to
the
side
of
the
altar
this
journey
now
live
from
Michael
because
you
see
March
just
in
the
next
room
so
he
was
there
at
the
wedding
was
how
ARE
this
preacher's
to
he
showed
up
at
the
Baptist
church
Warren
a
Catholic
Rome
but
he
bought
it
from
somebody
doing
a
Methodist
ceremony
we
opened
up
paying
with
the
lords
with
a
serenity
prior
and
we
closed
it
with
the
lord's
prayer
and
I'm
still
gonna
resentment
and
I'm
working
on
today
because
surely
wouldn't
limit
price
to
buy
right
the
problem
since
you
got
married
surely
not
started
we
want
to
move
to
the
woods
Tyra
even
until
you
so
we
have
sold
a
house
with
a
boom
in
the
yard
you
know
the
manicured
yard
all
the
and
we
looked
around
found
this
we're
land
Behrens
now
well
those
two
acres
homes
outside
of
here
after
west
blocked
an
element
you
won't
wonder
where
that
is
it's
right
across
highways
least
blocked
I
don't
hit
the
we
don't
even
have
a
rental
we
got
a
voice
in
that
song
when
they
and
we
service
to
work
this
afternoon
and
and
and
sissy
come
to
us
I
was
living
in
apartments
they
were
written
they
said
we
we
Texas
right
to
Jones
going
after
in
the
woods
but
we
will
go
with
so
we
put
our
money
together
and
did
the
best
we
could
and
we
ended
up
after
with
pharmacist
your
home
basketball
hill
Missouri
almost
off
the
and
then
we
moved
after
to
serenity
he
and
would
be
our
last
again
to
come
back
together
again
and
again
to
be
some
some
semblance
of
sanity
going
on
again
and
then
one
Saturday
Shirley
and
I
decided
that
we
would
run
down
to
the
Indian
reservation
and
in
Mississippi
they
have
a
little
thing
on
the
Indian
reservation
call
the
casino
two
and
a
half
hours
from
our
house
and
we
were
just
taking
a
holiday
it's
going
to
go
over
there
and
have
a
little
fun
let
me
hear
somewhere
you
folks
if
you're
walking
a
casino
and
security
is
paging
you
to
the
office
can
you
remember
to
do
that's
the
role
of
some
is
rock
we
got
to
the
office
they
gave
us
telephone
number
to
call
we
called
and
it
was
one
assist
as
best
free
because
she
said
you
need
to
turn
around

home
she
said
Susie
is
just
got
the
report
back
from
the
doctor
and
she
has
an
aneurysm
in
the
brain
so
we
went
to
the
van
and
we
started
back
home
no
this
is
June
of
nineteen
ninety
nine
it
is
raining
and
I'm
driving
that
by
and
I'm
beating
on
the
stern
wheel
and
I'm
calling
to
go
tell
about
Hornet
go
which
see
god
loves
me
so
much
and
he
knows
I
get
mad
at
him
every
once
in
awhile
when
I
don't
understand
he
knows
me
let's
bring
home
because
I'll
be
noticed
we
own
and
I'm
not
in
his
lane
and
then
looked
over
my
wife
and
I
saw
our
change
come
over
my
wife
that
was
absolutely
visible
nah
she
works
usually
from
the
hand
of
god
on
the
show
I
did
see
that
and
got
on
her
shoulder
but
also
the
change
and
and
and
so
and
she
looked
at
me
she's
supposed
to
approve
this
plan
over
she
said
driver's
home
she
said
I
don't
know
what
the
outcome
of
this
is
going
to
be
but
I
know
it's
going
to
be
okay
she
said
that's
what
god
what's
for
dinner
Cisco
you
well
I
couldn't
get
okay
with
we
got
a
hold
of
two
but
the
the
daughter
told
me
she's
a
dead
Gardner
I've
talked
about
this
thing
and
I
don't
know
what
the
outcome
is
going
to
be
but
it's
going
to
be
okay
but
I
was
I
was
a
basket
let
me
tell
you
what
I
was
a
basket
case
from
I
don't
know
about
you
but
when
I
get
bad
news
I
go
absolutely
to
the
worst
network
way
backwards
any
that
one
well
when
I
heard
about
ten
years
of
my
head
in
the
casket
cause
any
reasons
to
what
is
it
I
have
a
daughter
in
the
testing
but
I
couldn't
walk
up
to
because
it
was
one
of
millions
and
I
have
not
been
able
to
figure
out
a
way
to
make
me
one
man
that's
what
my
craziness
was
coming
I
couldn't
figure
out
how
to
my
commander
my
bro
daughter
for
not
taking
her
to
church
as
a
child
and
allowing
her
to
have
a
god
of
Roland
stands
you
see
my
daughter
never
had
a
gun
rona
standing
to
she
was
involved
in
an
almost
S.
Perreault
rocked
her
of
those
years
of
a
relationship
grow
because
I
couldn't
figure
out
how
might
certainly
so
start
crazy
throughout
the
whole
thing
well
you
know
what
happened

what
the
doctor
is
a
teaching
