I know in my soul I can't be a normal drinker so my AV doesn't try that one. Instead it creeps about with the incessant whisper that I could keep it to one binge a year. Just one. Sounds mad when I type it, but it is so convincing in my head.
Here's what my mind would do with that one.
"One binge a year!!"
*goes ahead and does one* *Five days later-*
"Well, that wasn't so bad! Maybe one binge a month. Yeah."
*December rolls around-*
"Golly, so many parties! I'll just drink through the holidays, but only at parties."
*In May-*
"When was the last time I wasn't hungover?"
*Next September.. I'm going to go back to Sober Recovery-*
"Hi, everyone! What a horrible year, but I'm back! I think I'll try one binge a year. Yeah."
