“Five years ago, I would have laughed if someone told me about rehab.  Even if it was rehab for alcoholics – I would still have a nice laugh.  I was a leisure man that enjoyed a beer or two before I went to bed.  That was five years ago.

Now a days, I developed a taste for wine and it seems I drink a bottle of Cabernet every night of the week.  Sometimes Chardonnay.  Or a shiraz is another type of red I enjoy.  Anyways, I can’t sleep otherwise.  This is not good!  My wife doesn’t like it, so this forces me to drink alone.  I have some friends that I dine with frequently.  They look at me foolishly when I down a bottle of wine.  I never use to do this, but since I gave up smoking – its either food or alchohol.

Well long story short.  I think I have a problem.  I think I am going to take work leave and check myself into rehab.  They have some nice facilities these days.  Almost like resorts.  I can’t wait really.  Rehab can be fun.  Alcohol just revolves around my life too much and I need a break.”
