So technically it is Sunday morning, but I work late on Saturdays. I'm at three weeks and feeling pretty good about tonight. I worked and a bunch of people went out to the usual bar afterwards and wanted me to come. I thought about going to get some food and hangout, but ended up not.

It was tough to not go, but I didn't have my car so I ended up not really being able to choose. My fiancee is at a bachelor party so I'm home by myself and hanging out with people sounded fun. I don't think I would have drank. BUT I don't think it would have been good for me either. I think before I have hung out with people drinking regularly, trying not to change my whole life too much, but just do my usual thing and not drink.But eventully I always ended up drinking again. So I just think maybe I'm not ready for that kind of social environment right now. Someone wrote on here that when you drink, it was probably building for a while. I'm trying to be more self aware about stuff like that.

Soooo, I'm just feeling good kind of about not putting myself in a bad situation. Even though I kind of wanted to, I think I learned my lesson tonight and I'm not going to cave to work-bar events. They aren't that much fun when you're not drinking anyway.
