I ended up stopping by my sister's after dinner (so that I didn't have to sit through cocktail hour or the wine being passed around at dinner). When I got there, all the adults were drinking wine at the dinner table with their desserts. I stayed for 5 minutes, but I actually felt more boredom than anything else. The after-dinner conversation wasn't nearly as interesting as I usually find it, I'm sure bc I was sober. Then I got up and joined my niece and nephew in the tv room and played (for the first time) on their Wii with them. I actually had a lot of fun and so did they. That was a nice surprise. I couldn't hang (yet) comfortably or with enjoyment with the adults, but I found an even better way to pass the time - with the two kiddos I love more than life itself. All in all, last night was a win. Thanks everyone for your support. And you all were right - it would've been too much too soon to be there all night trying to be sober. (At the end of the day today, it'll be a week! Wow!).
