I am in! The culture in this part of Texas is definitely booze-centric, though there is a small but significant minority of abstainers. Usually there is a moral, religious medical, or marathon-running reason attached, though. I
could do that too--but why? Why is just not wanting that lifestyle enough? Why do people care? Why are we put on defense? No one cares if you like strawberries or not. So strange but true.
I don't desire to be sober due to my religion or for any other socially-sanctioned 'reason'. I want to be sober because I enjoy life and people more when sober, especially on the weekends. It's easier to sleep at night, I exercise daily, look better, think more clearly, and am a much better friend and loved one sober. Not sure why I should feel compelled to say I am on antibiotics--
. Madness!
