30 days today

Even though I haven't posted in awhile, I'd like to thank all of you—this forum has been a tremendous help.

So here are a few things I've done sober for the first time over the past month, all of which have sparked bouts of heavy drinking in the past:

A wedding
Band practice
Dinner at a yuppie BBQ with absolutely gorgeous artisanal bourbon-based cocktails.
Fight with wife
A fairly sodden (for everyone else) work retreat

So far, so good. I don't really miss drinking, which is bizarre. I know I will be tested and that this sobriety rush will end (as all rushes do), but for now, all good. Thanks to you all for being there.

Congratulations, 30 days is very impressive!

Be wary of being lulled into complacency, though. Out of the woods, onto the longer road.
Nice job.
