Well, I'm 11 days new to sobriety. I'm sitting here reading your post just as I'm waiting for my friend to pick me up to go play pool. Same pool hall/bar that I've been visiting for years. So for my own sake I surely hope that being in familiar surroundings isnt going to interfere with my sobriety. I don't see drinking as an option, if I get uncomfortable, I'll just leave. But I must admit I find it ironic that I would happen to catch your post at this moment when it plays the role that it does. I will be extra cautious now! Thanks for your post. I guess it depends on the person and how bad they need to stay sober, and in my case, how much they want to play pool... I'll be fine
