Description:Intoxicated is a remarkable true story of a chaotic yet hilarious life shared with an ADHD partner.We've bought five fridges in the past year and three of them were pre-owned by us. Gerry sold them when we needed money and bought them back when we had a little extra.His idea of saving money is siphoning gas, but wait, I digress. I need to start at the beginning don't I?Three things in my life have literally collapsed—my building, my marriage and my lung. I still live above my flower shop, but according to my doctor, if I stay in it, I won’t have a heartbeat or a pulse.I’m surrounded by dead plants, rotted flowers and a large pile of unpaid bills. I’m one-step away from bankruptcy, struggling to pay the second mortgage, which only covered half of the repairs that were needed. Even though I’ve been turned down for a third mortgage, I’m not giving up. Quitting a goal is not my nature. Not because I was raised to be dogmatic, but more likely because I was raised like an animal. I’m the dog and the flower shop is my bone.My boyfriend Gerry is an irresponsible clown, who loves beer, cars and me—in that exact order. He’ll never grow up, but that’s one of the things I love, and hate, about him. Any chance of Gerry changing is inconceivable, but I’m hoping he will because he’s begging me to have his baby, but that scares me. What if I had to raise it alone?The truth is, the odds of him proving to be father material, are about equal to the odds of me not going bankrupt. And the chances of me going bankrupt are far from slim. They’re inevitable.The Big Surprise Chapter 16 Partial ExcerptI open the cupboard and take out a plate. There are about eight cookies on it. “But anything else I bake today is for company,” I say.For four hours I fight off Gerry from ravaging everything he smells.“Rum balls, my favorite!” Gerry drools and begs like a dog.“No. You’re going to burst out of your pants.”“Just one, to let me know how they taste.”Gerry knits his eyebrows together. “I think it’s missing something.”“Like what?”“I don’t know but let me taste another one and I’ll find out.”“No Gerry th—”“No Gerry,” he mocks, “they’re for company,” He stomps off to the bathroom. I put the rum balls into the freezer and sit at the kitchen table. I make some notes adjacent to the rum ball recipe.“Hey Juanita, Come here for a minute. I’m in the bathroom.”“What?”“Come here.”“No you come here.” I browse through the recipe pages.“I can’t I’m having a shit. It’ll only take a minute.”I walk to the bathroom.
