Tough time of day

I convince myself every morning that the dry life is the right life for me. I read a ton here, check out all of the sober instagrams I follow and am gungo ho about sobriety. Then happy hour rolls around, and I think just one glass to relax. It's never just one though. These days it isn't even just one bottle. I want to be strong and get through the next few hours to when my head hits the pillow. When I'm on a roll and have several days under my belt, I feel like I can abstain forever. I'm so rested, happy and productive.

Do you guys have those moments where your brain just clicks- I'm going to drink tonight. And there's no turning back. It's weird. It's not even that I want to drink sometimes. It's just that I think "This is what I do. This is how spend my night."
