Hi MAlan,
The day I said I was done. It was done. Of course I also knew that something would pop in my head to convince me otherwise for awhile but that is just what alcohol does. I can't change how alcohol works. All I can change is do I have to continue to drink it? And am I willing to endure what I have to until I regain my good sense back?
For me the more time and distance I have away from it the more it is just a stupid liquid to me. Of all things to worry about losing, I'm not spending any energy thinking about that one. A gazillion things to drink out there and I'm going to focus on one? And on top of that, one that if you take all the sugar and flavors out of it would taste like kerosene? I don't even need to go there on what a waste of time getting drunk is.
I had to just say its over. I'm done. If a magic fairy came down and said I could have any wish, I wouldn't even waste it on drinking moderately. Even that looks like a big waste of creative energy to me.
Good job Day 1. It's never to late to be done.
