Jordi and 1001 Opossums<p>A customer came in the store today. Dead ringer for my buddy Chewie who died in 2017 or 2018. First time I've had that experience.</p><p>Dave was called Chewie by his ex-cellmate Tyler, who ended up being his roommate in the recovery center. It caught on with the guys in the house. Chewie was stout, overweight, looked a little like Jeremy Piven (pre-hair plugs). He was one of the funniest guys I've ever met, and he was such a incredibly nice guy. We were in the same intake group and spent 35 days together in counseling. He relapsed about a year after we exited treatment and then a few years later, I heard through the grapevine that he'd OD'd.</p><p>Thinking about ya Chewie. <a href="https://beige.party/tags/ODAAT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ODAAT</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/SoberLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoberLife</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/RecoveryPosse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RecoveryPosse</span></a></p>
