She's fetching, with those dimples, isn't she?

serious drinking problem.

Trouble with that is, those programs aren't really intended to help anyone, just take their money, money they usually don't have to spend on court ordered therapy.

So I hear.

decided they were not necessary at work.

Going out in public without pants is taking it to a whole 'nother level.

on the job, and maybe her nerves cause her drinking problems as a coping mechanism. My heart goes out to her.

I know she's an easy target to make fun of and, yes, she caused her own problems by her alcohol consumption, but maybe she's in a lot of emotional pain.

the puffiness of excessive alcohol consumption not just related to weight gain. Wow, I just hope this woman has some support during this time. She must be really hurting.

and I had the good sense/lucidity to stay out of the public spaces. Whatever was affecting her was more than I ever had to deal with. I hope I never get that drunk and I drink most prodigiously.

No - not drunk. Just very, very tired. And - I use my dryer in the basement to "iron" my clothes. I threw my dress in the dryer, got the rest of my clothes on, went down to walk out to the garage through the basement, stuck my shoes on, then realized that I was missing the top layer of clothes just before I opened the door to head out.
