I see your arrest was in January - did you ever get to rehab? How's your sobriety going?

When I got my second DUI and wrecked my car in the process of knocking over a traffic signal, my bac was .34. I was so lucky I didn't hurt anyone else or myself, and that I didn't just die from that high of a bac. Sadly, that didn't stop me. It took DUI number 3 (rammed into a parked car, totaled it, and nearly totaled my car) to get me to wake up and make the change. My state (Wisconsin) is a little more relaxed than some on DUI's - number 3 is still a misdemeanor. But when I was sitting in the back of a police car after number 3, handcuffed and crying, I truly had a spiritual awakening. I listened to my higher power (which I had never acknowledged until that very moment) and have not had a drink since.
