Hey #TeamAugust!
If the AV is strong today, don't even engage with it. Just shut it down. It is extremely clever and will most likely win if you try to argue with it. Stay hydrated, eat good food, rest and have those delish NA drinks in your hand...especially if you are around people drinking.
I love "keep your eyes on the prize"...we have so much to gain if we can stay sober today.
Enjoy your sober (holiday in the states) weekend!
