Glamourizing your Druggie Past

I remember getting stood up and grilled endlessly because my clothes smelled like smoke.

I never smoked, and had been in the program for three months when this happened.  LOGIC???? They didn't want to hear logic.  When I was allowed to speak, and told them my mother was a 2-pack-a-day smoker, I was told I was a liar.

Go figure.

Yes, That's it! "...the mighty, mighty Girl's Side."  *scoff*

I was just reliving my "setbacks".

On 3rd I accessorized with baby powder.  On 4th I tried to get high on a host mom's birth control pills.  (I mean, really!  Have you ever heard anything so ridiculous?)  

I can't for the life of me remember the purported reason for my 5th phase setback.

Long after I commenced though my mom told me that my 5th phase set back was her fault.  My insurance had run out.

She went through all of our savings and lost her husband in order to pay Straight.  Even though they were taking a weekly collection at Church, she still couldn't make the payment on time.

They told her that she was going to "ruin my recovery" if she didn't come up with the money.  I sat on 1st phase until my mom made that payment.

Classy folks, those Straight Execs.

I was free.  I could theoretically leave when I wanted to. So could she.  There was nothing I could have done to stop her short of walking back to the building and telling someone she took off. She didn't want to leave either or she would have.  I believe she was from Delaware..so maybe she needed a place to stay ..who knows.

I put in a withdrawal once... an executive talked me out of it.  I can't remember his name... blonde.. used to be a phaser I think... Rob something...no, I can't remember..anyway, when I put in my withdrawal I wanted to get high.. I was trying to remember dealers phone numbers etc... I am not exactly sure why I didn't just walk out instead of the formality of a withdrawal... part assimilation part actual fear of dying.  I was using hard and heavy when I signed myself in and really wanted my life to change.  Although I am not grateful for the atrocities that happened in straight, I am grateful for my time away from my lifestyle and access to drugs.  I don't know if I would have stopped using had I not signed myself in there.

Oh well.. all of our experiences where not the same misbehavior.  And for the record.. I would never tell you what you "SHOULD" do or "SHOULD" have done..that just doesn't make any sense.

Ohmigod!  I'd completely forgotten that phrase.  What other little "pat" straight sayings could I be forgetting?  



I'd really love to remember more about that Girls Side/Guys Side Song that always rand in OMR if anyone remembers the words.



NA NA NA NA...NA NA NA"


This is what I remember about the song:

Na na na na na (na na na na na), na na na na na na(etc for a long time, alternating back and forth from the girls and guys side)
Girls and guys side, (girls and guys side) we're showing lots of pride (we're showing lots of pride), girls and guys side, we're showing lots of pride.
Sun up to sun down (sun up to sun down), Straight ___??___
Sun up to sun down, Straight __??___
Na na na na na , na na na na na na etc etc ...

There may have been more but I can't remember the rest. I remember singing this always right before I knew I was most likely going to get reamed for something.

Straight is it! The one that never lets us down!

Straight is it! The most successful place around!

Straight is it! Straight is it! Repeat ad naseum.

Complete with a straightening arm jesture everytime you sing the word "straight".

But then, of course, my brain needed  a little washing.  :grin:

We used to shout "Straight Is It!!!" a few dozen times after OMR. Well, some of us did. Some of us shouted "Straight Is SHIT!" LOL Even on 5th phase.

Truth resides in every human heart, and one has to search for it there, and to be guided by truth as one sees it. But no one has a right to coerce others to act according to his own view of truth.

my first day in straight:
two guys had me butt naked in a shower stall telling me to spread my ass cheeks so they could look for weapons of mass destruction
next they took me in another room and asked me if I ever fucked my cat
next the stuck there hands down my pants and lead me quietly into a not so quiet room
next I saw a sea of writhing crazed scared little teenage body's flailing there limbs to get there captures attion/approval
and the fourth phase guys flicking there hands at me and directing me to pay attention and looking like they would rather see me die than be not afraid, then I went to the Venegoni host home where the oldcomers (I'm sure we all know who they are) yelled at me and told me to get out of my fucking pity..I found out that night that this particular host home was reffered to as "aushwitz"
the next day I experienced a pysiological response to all of this trauma..I found that my facial muscles were frozen and that I could not smile or move my mouth...it went away after a few days

You were not free. Power triping. Have you ever given an order knowing your life depends upon it?
All you did was talk shit to scared adults. Jason

edit: sorry if I offended you. BTW, ya need 14.7 psi for a tsunami. Overage phasers should rest in peace; quickly. Jason

My apologies to anyone who read my moment of temporary reactionary simple-mindedness. Doing so puts me on level with those I am reacting to. I think it's time to take a break from the fornits. [ This Message was edited by: shady grove on 2005-02-22 07:14 ]
