Remembering what is true . . . the little voice lies

Quote:
I actually truely believed that I could not pay attention or enjoy a football game without drinking beer... isn't that ridiculous? I have said to myself that I can't enjoy a party without beer... I have said I can't enjoy a wedding without drinking...
i KNOW i CAN enjoy anything and everything without drinking.

the issue? now that i've concluded that if i drink i WILL drink too much, i don't always care that i don't need to drink in order to have fun.

8 days sober, first AA meeting tonight (), and i have to keep reminding myself not to think down the road to the next occasion with friends where it would be fun to drink . . . not in order to make the occasion fun, but just because the drinking itself was fun.

emphasis on "was." right?
