Intelligence and sobriety don't go well together.
I am very book smart... very street dumb. I will compare my I.Q with anyone "out there" but NOT with anyone here. Why? Because, I am too smart (to my credit) not to ask.
My opinion: sobriety starts with your last drink and your last thought of finding a drink.
Where you are between the two is THE struggle...
