Day 23 - funny
 
(I posted this in the April daily threads for my peeps, and then realized it was too good not to share with all the newcomers - after 23 days my alcoholic/addictive voice must still be fighting, and it has started editing my posts!)...

Hello from paradise. Just checking in on day 23 and glad to be staying sober [AV: glad? what a bunch of crap]. My wife was out of town for a week so I had the perfect opportunity to grab a steak and a couple of bottles of red. I did get a steak, but skipped the vino and stayed strong to the cause [AV: what a wimp, that cab/shiraz blend would have tasted great, and no one would have known]. Also been spending time fixing up a car that I got cheap. Really weird to spend an afternoon wrenching on a vehicle without downing a bunch of beers [AV: wheres the bloody cooler dork]. There was a point where I was sorely tempted but let it pass [AV: there were a bunch of nice cold greenies right next to the register you idiot].

Oh, yea, I need to work on my finger callouses too. Just don't play as much as I should and certainly not very well! [AV: you never sound any good unless your hammered].

Keep up the sobriety folks. [AV: bah humbug].

Thanks for sharing! We all have that voice. I wake up every day and tell myself I don't WANT to drink, but end up listening to THAT voice. Oh how I wish it would go away.

Love it. Very clever and very true. The AV will become frustrated and stop coming around.
