The big 31 just hours away!
 
No, not 31 days, but 31 years! I'm taking about my age that is :D

Tomorrow is my birthday. This will be my first sober birthday in.....umm...hmmm...A VERY LONG TIME! If I were to guess, the last time I was sober on my birthday was when I was 16. Holy cow! That's 15 years of NON SOBER BIRTHDAYS!

Its pretty awesome though. Tonight I'm just laying on my bed, laptop on my chest, eating some bottle cap candy hehehehe, window wide open breathing the fresh Sierra Mountain air, sipping on some hot tea, and enjoying every second of it - Completely Sober!

Previously on this particular night before my birthday, I would have been a bottle deep into a serious alcoholic binge by now. At some bar, or out somewhere is a drunken stupor. But NOT tonight my friends..Not tonight :) But rather tonight I move forward into the very first year that I will be completely sober in. Damn it feels good people!

Ryan, you could be my twin! I'll be turning 31 in a few months, and it has taken me this long to finally accept the fact that the alcoholic life just isn't for me. Congratulations, man! I wish you the best of luck in the years to come.

Lifting a non-alcoholic toast to you on the eve of your 31st bday....
