Thanks, Obladi. Your follow-up post made the separation between you and your AV clearer to me; it's great that you're so in tune to it. I've been impressed how quickly you and some other folks have been to pick up that ability. It took me a bit longer to get there.
You and Freshstart have me thinking about all the relationships that were impacted while I was drinking. Mostly in subtle ways, without anyone knowing the true cause. I kept the world at a distance to protect my dark secret.
