I don't know, but if it's only the one night - I guess I can live with it.

And it can be a valuable experience if you learn something from that night that protects you next time.

Then I found myself drinking and enjoying it, apparently without guilt.

You all know what I am feeling today. My resistance is very low now.

I totally relate. Last time I had a couple of weeks of sobriety under my belt I was on my way to an AA meeting, but was stuck in traffic due to a train crossing. I happened to be right across from a liquor store...

Four months later my bender ended, and I'm lookin' at 10 days of sobriety and doing much better than last time.

Keep on keepin' on, friend. The good thing is you're back on the wagon rather than spiraling out of control. Good job.
