Wow, Kelle, you hit the nail on the head for me with this. I feel the same way and I didn't realize it until you said it. That being said, I also hope that as more time passes, I will stop thinking that way and start thinking in a healthier way. "Fake it 'til you make it," right? So I will continue to do what I know is right (which included a mad dash in and out of the grocery store today because I was afraid a bottle of booze would pour itself down my throat or something) and I will eventually get through a day without thinking about drinking. Day 10 here. I don't feel like starting over.
