Thanks Soberwolf! You're awesome too!
And 2ndhandrose, I'm so glad you enjoyed this thread. I'm definitely trying to learn how to match my inner child to my adult exterior and I have a lot to learn! It's nice to know that others can relate. I feel like a lot of it is just faking it till I make it.
Yes, Thump, the building I work in as well as the town, is full of triggers and memories from my party days. When I feel tempted to join in the festivities, I think back to getting pulled over on my way home from this very town and actually getting a DUI which I had gotten dropped. That kills the fantasy pretty quickly. And I agree, that starting to play an instrument will really help to redirect my focus to a much healthier place.
