thanks everyone for the kind words.
my wife doesn't really drive anymore due to low vision. she always has a person bring her home on sunday evenings. usually one of her friends or her mother.
this afternoon, i got a call from wal-mart and she needed me to come pick her up. it was around 4:30.
on a normal (actually abnormal but normal for former self) sunday i would have truly been hammered by that time. tho' i honestly didn't feel like driving into town, i was able to do so.
no potential dui. just a pickup and come home.
another benefit. i'm a 'dexter' and 'true blood' fan. couldn't wait for them on sunday night. i would usually pass out by sunday afternoon but get up in time to watch them (while pile-driving more vodka of course). of course when talking to co-workers the next morning, i'd try to pretend that i remembered what went on. anyone else done that???
i would end up watching it 'on demand' on monday afternoon before i got too blitzed so i would remember the facts of the show.
anyhoo....just finished watching this week's 'dexter'. i love that show. great episode. it's kinda surreal though....i believe he has an addiction that he can't stop.....lol.
