Hmm. The CoDA meeting. Well. The meeting itself was okay and I wasn't even that late. After the meeting, though, this one biddy (sorry, but what a horrible woman) orchestrated what I thought was to be a "newcomer's" thing, that instead turned into this evangelical sermon. I was not appreciative. I'll give these meetings another chance and if I don't care for them, I'll try another location--fortunately there's more than one in the city.

The meeting closed with the Lord's prayer. Everyone stood in a circle and held hands. My hands were clammy, ugh. The prayer stuff doesn't do much for me, but there was this chihuahua there, a very sweet and social creature, who started snorting and honking (reverse sneezing, a common affliction of smaller dogs--Paints does it) throughout the prayer between stanzas, which I thought was hilarious. I totally wanted to crack up with my irreverent self. Oh, anyway, so after the Lord's prayer there was a group hug. Holy crap. And then this one lady came up to me afterward and asked me if I wanted a hug. From a stranger? Um, no. Not into the huggie shit, not into the Jesus shit.

Oh, and Shay told me to give her a call after the meeting so we could hook up, but when I did her phone was turned off and she hasn't called back yet. So I just drove home. What the fuck?
