And then boredom sets in...

I have to say that getting drunk really sounded good today around 2pm. I had those strong urges. It even ran through my mind that I could just start my sobriety tomorrow, but I fought it off and told myself that this illness wants to destroy me and get in the way of everything I want in life and just like that it was gone! Normally I would have given into that temptation. I have for the past 10 years, but I thought about all the advice and kind words I received from everyone on here and in a way, even though I know none of you personally, I felt as if I'd be letting all of you down. I thought how all of you took the time to write encouraging words to me and how it would all be a waste of your time if I did what I've always done (drink and regret it in the morning).

I think I'm going to make me some dinner and watch a movie! Tomorrow is another day. I wish all of you another happy day in sober land
