still play poker?

The start of day 2 in sobertown. Weird, but I don't think I slept a wink last night. But I feel pretty darn good!

I just got an invite to a monthly poker game. I love this particular poker game. It's one of the only times I get out and talk with other friends/adults in a social setting. However, I usually drink like a fish, smoke cigarettes (which I don't do any other time) and smoke pot to boot. What is the general wisdom here? I really want to go to the game, because I do enjoy it, but I also don't want to screw up what might be a sobriety record for me. I'm being honest when I say I think I can handle it.

Day two can be shaky. There are ways but they may not be easy. Make a 'contract' with someone. State clearly that you will not bust. If you're hellbent on going draw the boundaries and you will learn something.

My initial thought is to avoid but you seem to have made up your mind......stay clean and you will clean up too
