Ready, I hope the medication is starting to work and the side effect are subsiding. I also hope you and anyone else reading this from the U.S. had a great and sober 4th of July.

I had a really enjoyable evening and went to a huge BBQ with my family. I was the DD, but nobody else in my family is an alcoholic, and while they'd all had something to drink, they all seemed totally fine to drive. Either way, it was just a big relief for me not having to spend so much mental energy moderating my intake. At this event, which I've been going to since I was real young, I've definitely had some pretty drunk nights, but given it's with my family, I had managed to always avoid blackouts. In hindsight, that's really just luck more than anything else. That moderation thing is so darn hard. Last night was so much easier!

Beautiful day here in the northeast. Going to go jogging and kayaking and then head back to NYC to watch the women's World Cup finals. Go Team USA!
