I remember you saying that you will get by on personality alone.  Try extracting it in warm water and chug it down before the job.......You will do fine.  Good luck tomorrow....we will all be on pins and needles waiting to hear how your day went......:-)

Opiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!! You know you are going to be awesome, dude! I know its scarey in a way, but like others said, just think about how great it will be to do the job sober, knowing you can do a much better job. I think we fool ourselves into thinking while we are using that we are doing 'better" but we are really doing "worse".
I know you will kick butt and take names tomorrow. I'll be rooting for ya!
Peace~

Good Luck to you.  You guys were so good to me a couple of weekends ago while my daughter and her boyfriend were home w/d from oxy.  If it weren't for this forum, I don't know how I would have gotten through it.  They're both doing really well and are starting drug counselling next week.  
I wish only good things for you and I'm sure you're gonna be great at your job.
Warmest regards
