Re: New day, everyday (log)
Three days and counting. I rented a movie last night and I remember how it ended! I feel really good today, clear. However, the "voices" of addiction are getting desperate and creative. I guess everybody has the "c'mon, it's been three days, you deserve a drink, you've earned it!" thoughts. It sounds so reasonable, I almost want to believe it. What's one drink? Of course, I have to remind myself that I don't want just one drink. I'm feeling confident about the weekend. I'm going beat this.
All of your stories and congratulations are very helpful. Thank you.
It's great to hear from other musicians. Although I've never played professionally, I've been at it for about 16 years (half my life). I'm really looking forward to using the "found" time to practice more diligently. I hope to finish writing some of the songs I drunkenly scribbled the first verses of, if I can find them... and they make any sense. I don't doubt many new insights are waiting to reveal themselves to me that will make for good song material. Music soothes the savage beast, right?
