Gabi spent one and a half years picking up white chips. That kept her close to the program for when she was ready. She was in MacArthur Park in LA to buy drugs when her car was impounded. She was homeless and panhandling to get her car back. She stalked her second sponsor. She talks a lot about unmanageability. Here's her spiritual music playlist of unusual songs:

1. Fire and Rain: James Taylor

2. Let It Be: Beatles

3. Surrender: Cheap Trick

4. Beauty Mark: Rufus Wainwright

5. Drift Away: Dobie Gray

6. Good Vibrations: Beach Boys

7. Chicago: Sufjan Stevens

8. Black Water: Doobie Brothers

9. Boy in the Bubble: Paul Simon

10. What’s Up: 4 Non Blondes

Gabi got sober on 12AUG2008 and her home group is the No-Name Group somewhere in central NC.
