Days of Sobriety
About Me
- Eli Hornby
- I wish I only had to introduce you to ME: dad, husband, songwriter, pastor. That’s the guy I see in the mirror. I love my kids, I’m good at fixing things, I love to read or chase my dogs around the house. But I lose track of myself sometimes when I’m hurting. That’s when my addict comes around, the bastard who would throw it all away for a moment alone with his drugs and his porn. He cuts me with a razor and he steals things just for the rush. He’s even tried to kill me. But there’s a huge difference between us, and I’ll tell you what it is: He’s a coward. And I’m not. I won’t let him have my kids, my beautiful wife, my job or my home. And since he hates exposure, I’m going to tell you all about him. I’m Eli, and I’m an addict.

O Really?
LOL cat. Trying to "claim" my blog on Technorati, but it's not working...
Thanks for your comments Eli. I wondered about this one too? Ya know, we're neighbors here in the OC. I'm in Irvine. You'll have to direct me to your church. I hope your week is going well so far.
I certainly agree....
Did he use real beer?
Karen - Yeah it would be fun to meet. Maybe church and then lunch with the fam afterwards? ...after I get back from our vacation. And just how tall are you??
Patty, good question. He did, but it wasn't at an AA meeting - it was a workshop at a church conference I attended. Still felt kind of strange to pop it open right there in a sunday school room.
Ha Ha - i trying to use logic to decode this one... whew
~hugs~
huh? Maybe it's late for me....
