I'm just going over my parents so it'll just be the three of us.

I've been sober since the end of November and have weekly sessions with a councellor on a complete abstinence thing.
She was on about alcohol over Xmas and there will be a small amount at my parents house, but I explained to her that it's probably a good thing.

Firstly because it'll be like the next test, and secondly I would feel bad if they couldn't enjoy a drink just because I was there.

Did a group of your "friends" hold you down and proceed to pour
the contents of that aforementioned can, down your throat?

I will admit this holiday season has been more difficult than I thought it would be. This season is TOUGH. I've been sober since June. Now that I think about it though, what my AV addictive voice, or demon as I like to call it, doesn't want a brandy and eggnog surrounded by friends. My addictive voice wants a fifth (so I can have as much as I want) and to sit alone and surf the net drinking. There, I let it speak for just a moment. Now I am coming back to reality.

I don't drink anymore. I can't drink safely. Christmas Eve is no different than any other day: March 14, July 12, September 19, what difference does it make? I drank to passing out everyday so today is just another day sober.

Let's look forward to waking up tomorrow feeling good. No hangovers.
