Selling alcohol big business in the US. Look at all the bars, brands and types of alcohol, new microbreweries popping up everywhere. My husband and I are saving tons of money not keeping booze in the house or going out for drinks. At DAY 28, I'm starting to really see how stupid people look on tv saying "Party!!!", taking shot after shot, being stupid and then hungover and that's all they did. No adventure, trip, challenge,interesting experience except that same scenario.

PHRD - So true!! There's a group of friends who drank like me that I fractured away from who post their exploits on Facebook - they are drunk at a beach, drunk at a baseball game, drunk at the casino, and so on. Elaborate lengths are taken to get the same old drunk at different venues.

When I was active in my addiction, I was just looking to be happy and have fun. I thought drinking was my ticket. When I stopped drinking and put the effort into joy and happiness that I used to put into drinking, I found happiness and joy.

Keep up the good work Undies!!
