I stopped drinking alcohol 11 months ago. I have quit before, but this time I think it’s for real. I think it’s for good. I’ll get more into the reasons why in future posts, but I’ve had this current topic on my mind a lot lately.

Since I quit drinking, I’ve noticed some really dumb things my heavy drinker friends have said to me.

One of my almost daily drinker friends was going for a colonoscopy recently.
I asked her what she clear liquids she had picked up for her
prep the day before the procedure,

Her answer?
“White wine.”

(She usually drinks red wine)
This would actually be funny if it weren’t so sad.

I thought that was the dumbest thing I’d ever heard! I suppose maybe if I were still drinking heavily I might have thought that sounded like a fine plan.—to drink a bunch of booze the day before I was being put under to have a medical procedure done. But now that I’m sober, I thought WTF, what is wrong with her?

And then I realized that I used to be the same way. I’m so glad I’m making a turn around.

Thanks for listening.
