I don't count days, I don't celebrate anniversaries, and I don't pick up chips. I do not reveal my "date of sobriety," nor am I particularly interested in anyone else's DOS beyond (possibly) the first year. To celebrate a sobriety anniversary would imply that I am somehow acting out of character by not drinking, which is not the case anymore. It would be like having a party because I haven't hit myself on the head with a hammer in so many years.
I never drink, period.
