Superbowl Sunday without a drink
Superbowl Sunday without a drink
Day 34 of sobriety for me. Two different friends invited me out to bars to watch the Superbowl, but I gently and firmly told them that sitting in a bar for hours (the broadcast lasts forever) was not a good idea for me. I watched the game in my house without needing a drink.
One friend in particular keeps asking me to a bar so "you can have coffee and I can have a drink." But she means half-dozen double vodkas, and I don't find that prospect entertaining at all.
I'd appreciate any suggestions about other ways to tell my old drinking buddies I am no longer interested.
Every day is a better day...

Yeah, many of us stayed home, and I agree, sitting there watching other people getting trashed it NOT all that entertaining. Makes me wonder, was I really like that? Yeah, I guess I was. Meh.

Yep, waking up on Monday morning after the SuperBowl feeling fairly good is almost as good as waking up on New Years Day sober.
And, if we need a shot of gratitude, we get to look around at others' bloodshot eyes this morning.
