Caught myself judging
Tonight we went to a celebration of our son's football season. Some of the dads ordered beers immediately after walking into the pizza place, and kept drinking throughout dinner. I found myself pondering why they were so eager to drink in a celebration of 10-year-olds.
But I caught myself: after all, it was me that used to slug back vodka from a Gatorade bottle I'd stashed in my purse before even going to such events--and go to the restroom a few times to slug back more.
A couple of guys having a few beers together? Normal. My previous behavior? Alcoholic.
