After Work Drinks?

I'm 20 days sober today! Woot!

Anyhoot, I'm sort of known around the office as the person who usually organizes the after work cocktail events (surprise!). I have a reputation as a partier (surprise!). Over the past few weeks, I've had numerous coworkers ask when the next after work shing-ding would happen.

I don't want to lose touch with my coworkers, but I haven't even stepped foot into a bar, much less be surrounded by 30something frenzied 9to5-ers that just want to get a buzz going.

Anyone have any advice in this situation? How does one continue to be social when drinking is the social event?

(ps. I'm totally ashamed that I'm the person in the office people turn to when they want to get f**ked up after work).
