I think your Birthday plans are terrible. I am glad I am not invited!
Facing a fear head on is good, when you are ready to do so... I will face that fear when I feel strong enough to overcome it. At 8 days it might be just a little early, cause ya see, I haven't completely yet embraced the "admitting I am powerless over alcohol and that my life has become unmanageable". I mean, I KNOW this to be true, but still once in a while a little voice pops in and says, well, gosh, wonder, I mean I'm not under a bridge, not many people were aware... hell, see I have been X number of days without... oh only 1, what can that do.... I think I am just sitting here sorta waiting for someone to convince me, so I am not going to let myself get into any situation where my biggest fear could come true.
I will call my friend and ask her over here for lunch. I will feel stronger with one of the boys around.
Yea, I may be a wimp, but getting less wimpier every day. Am going to get through this first step, not work it, but live it!
