Every Time I Drink I Break out in Spots
I remember a man saying at a meeting that every time he drank he broke out in spots: spots like Chicago or Hawaii. He said that once he picked up a drink he never knew where the drink would take him.
I remember once after a period of sobriety picking up a drink and then coming to and becoming aware that I was moving. I had thought at first I was in bed. Then I realized I was in a car and the sun was rising. The last thing I could recall was being at home and it was evening. It turned out I was about a hundred miles from home, missing about twelve hours of time, with a friend I hadn't seen for a while and didn't know how I had gotten where I was.
