Day 3

Hope everyone is trying to enjoy a sober, guilt-free, pain-free saturday. i must say that after my whirlwind of exercise this morning, i did think about stopping at the 7-11 for a 24oz for home. but, i thought about what i was risking, and i kept on driving.

i talked with another of my drinking buddies, and told him about my "adjustment of meds", and that i couldn't drink. he laughed a bit, but didn't give me too much grief. he told me of his night, driving over the mountain to catch one last free outdoor concert, then hitting a couple of bars. he said that he did a shot of patron tequila and immediately went to the bathroom in the bar and barfed.

i don't miss that, at least not today. felt kind of bad for him, but he's single and figures that he needs to stay in "circulation" if he wants to find a woman. not sure what kind of companion he'd find coming out of the toilet with barf on the front of his shirt.

i don't miss that.

thanks for listening and hope everyone has the strength to stay the course, even if it's one day at a time.

Much thanks and congratulations to all who are here and accounted for. Went to see Horrible Bosses tonight. Pretty funny flick.
Have drank so much water today that i think that i'm making up for years past. think i'm a bit too hydrated before i go to bed, but i'll be happy in the morning.

i can honestly say that staying the course seems easier than i thought if i stay busy, but the moment i don't have something to occupy my attention, my mind wanders. i just need to learn to live for the now and the tomorrow, and not the then and the yesterday.

god speed little doodles. hope today and tonight bring peace.
