Not that I had a problem

I love how almost anyone who has talked to me about a brief cessation in their alcohol intake (also commonly referred to as 'sobriety') has prefaced this obscenity with 'Not that I had a problem."
(in a sense a brief disclosure in this dialog must be made aware that the aforementioned phrase should be only said in ones head in as nasal kind of a way. And much of the following should as well. Reader's preference, of course.)
Oh dear.
Problems.
I hate to be the one to say this
I guess the bearer of bad news perchance to say ,perchance to express, perchance to dispel the egotistical logic of the moment
But!
OH! DID I HAVE A PROBLEM.
That problem is not so elegantly described as
and not so favorable referred to as
ALCHOLHOLISM.
So I did cease
from the alcohol
OH!
(Until now (what delights!) of course!)
NOT BECAUSE I HAD A PROBLME OR ANHTING!
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Yeh No
I did
I so did.
But because I wanted to like
Live.
To live.
