lucky 13

I'm on day 13 right now. Still going to daily AA meetings, some of which are better than others. I met with my sponsor for like 2 hours last night which was nice. I'm not even really craving alcohol, just lots of candy! haha I have put myself in situations where alcohol was involved, for example I went a couple of nights ago to a bar where my friend's band was playing. I just ordered a soda at the bar and nobody said anything about it. I think most of it is in my head, where I think my friends might think it's weird that I'm not drinking. I haven't really told many people that I'm in AA. So I just use the line, I'm not drinking today or I don't really feel like drinking. So far it's working. This is the longest string of consecutive days that I have gone without drinking in probably 5 years. So yeah, that's all...just a little update

That is great. I couldn't go into a bar right now. It is a bummer because I love going out and listen to local bands.

I changed people, places, and things. When I play with fire, I get burnt.

Congrats on 13 days!

Glad to hear you are going to meetings, the bar scene worries me a little.
