    “Hi, I’m Nick and I’m an addict.”
    “Welcome, Nick!” the group said in unison.
    I took a deep breath and began. “This’s my first time attending Narcotics Anonymous, and I’m not real sure what to say.”
    I looked around the table. There were twelve of us, myself and my wife Laurie included. Each person at the table took turns talking about how drugs took control of their lives, and how they recovered from hitting rock-bottom. Now it was my turn.
    “I’ve been clean for three hours and,” I glanced at my watch, “seven minutes. I can’t say drugs ruined my life. If anything, I guess drugs made it better. I don’t think I’ve ever done anything extreme to get drugs...well, there was that house I burned down and those four dope dealers I killed just to get a suitcase full of Jane, but...I was doing a lot of good people a favor!”
