Just Three More Weeeks
I'm five weeks sober today. My record is eight weeks, set in a hyper religious treatment centre. Only three more weeks til I beat it. I'm actually fairly confident I'm going to make it. I'm taking my antabuse and I learned I did something awful blacked out so that's motivating me. This is normally around the time I relapse but I find I'm not having thoughts of "God I need a drink" like I normally do. And I've made my big plan and I'm practicing AVRT though my AV is quiet.
I'm in a much better place now than I normally am five weeks sober. Normally by now the cracks are appearing.

”normally do.” ??
”normally am”.??
”Normally by now the crack are” ??
Notice how your Addictive Voice would like to keep all this “normal” state of your being on the cusp of a wonderful period of drunkenness just around the corner by keeping it all in the present tense. YES! It’s a commin’, just hang on and keep FF talkin’ like all this not normal stuff is almost over and we’ll be back to “normal”.
Actually, with your Big Plan, YOU KNOW...
”It used to be...”
”I used to do.”
”I used to be...”
”In the past the cracks used to be...”

It suddenly became like trying to mix oil and water for me to even try to put the idea of me drinking any more in the present tense. Completely weird, unnatural, and SO SO clearly, YES, exactly what my AV would LIKE me to do - deny the exisence of my Big Plan.

Is it just me, or is the type size of your Big Plan Signature (that viewers can only see if they’re logged in) actually getting smaller and smaller? 
edit: I see my signature is also now in smaller type, too. I just upgraded my ‘puter. Maybe that’s it.

I haven't changed the size. Very strange.
