IrishEyes, I have had a gazillion "Day Ones." No need to be embarrassed about that or about not remembering where the whiskey was hidden. People like us do some stuff while drinking that just doesn't make sense to the sober mind.
I relate to how you are feeling. I drank a lot (by myself) Saturday night and yesterday felt guilty, miserable and angry at myself. I also drank a lot on Thursday and went to work with a wicked hangover. And my work requires a lot of logic and public speaking. That scared me, because I just started this job (that I totally love) a little over a month ago.

So here I am on "Day Two." For the gazillionth time. You know, I feel pretty good today. But you know what else? The thought has crept into my head of drinking tonight after working out. That's how pernicious this darn alcoholism thing is. That's why we need other people!
