This is a great thing Bochuck, congrats.
I agree with notnormal. Although my wife is brilliant and wouldn't put booze near me, lots of people (perhaps those who don't have the control on their drinking that they would like?) seem a bit non-plussed if I refuse a drink. Anyone worth calling a friend wouldn't push it.
I guess it is similar to smoking. I am a smoker and have to admit to a twinge of jealousy whenever someone quits. Not nice, but it is a reminder that I am doing something very stupid, and I wish I were them.
I hope this strengthens your resolve even further - very well done.
