I never even get THAT far ... makes me tired, just watching it.
all that 'woo-woo' new agey music ... harps and zithers and stuff.
I hear that stuff and ... I slip right off into a comfortable COMA.

Well here I am sober
It is very nice, sleep has been a major factor in my feeling good.Havent been making my meetings and I am the type to get complacent after a few days so...I am going tonight (fri), sat, sun and tues.
'Just for today, I will have a program. I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it...'
I want to carry on feeling like this, I am not one to panic if I miss a meeting and 90 in 90 aint gonna happen but I feel the need to get some meetings in-so I am!
Just for Today (so I have easy reference to it)
JUST FOR TODAY
JUST FOR TODAY I will try to live through this day only and not tackle my whole life’s problems at once. I can do something for twelve hours that would appall me if I felt that I had to keep it up for a lifetime.
JUST FOR TODAY I will be happy. Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.
JUST FOR TODAY I will adjust to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my ‘luck’ as it comes and fit myself to it.
JUST FOR TODAY I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires mental effort and concentration.
JUST FOR TODAY I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a good turn and not get found out. If anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I do not want to do - just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt; they may be hurt, but today I will not show it.
JUST FOR TODAY I will be agreeable, will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticise not one bit, not find fault with anything and not try to improve or regulate anybody except myself.
JUST FOR TODAY I will have a programme - I may not be able to follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests; hurry and indecision.
JUST FOR TODAY I will have a quiet half hour all by myself, and relax. During this half hour, some time, I will try to get a better perspective of my life.
JUST FOR TODAY I will be unafraid, especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me.
