It's official :) day 3! So that beer your wanting - are you going to let a silly wee bottle of beer be your downfall?

I don't think you are :) your far stronger :)

Just imagine smashing that bottle of beer - such relief lol especially when you get to come back on day 4 fresh faced :)

I'm going to a baseball game tonight for our pro team (who will remain unnamed), but let's put it this way .... they have spun apart in the last two weeks and probably have little chance of winning tonight (which puts their playoff hopes further in the tank). And these tickets, bought weeks ago, were my birthday present!! Lucky me (sarcasm.) Anyway, I don't like beer but I do like it when the temp is 95 and my team is losing.

But I'm NOT GONNA do it. Diet pepsi and fried dough for me.

It's gotta be the Rangers, who are playing at home. Can't be the Astros since you described it as a "pro team."

Totally got hit with a yearning this eve not a craving but a yearning. We were eating at the place that's basically a bar with booths around. They have the world best pizza and wings. So like the alci I am I was watching everyone drink... And I thought damn how lucky they are. Then I thought how funny it would be if I stood up and yelled very loudly f you all your so lucky you're drinking. I couldn't stop laughing at the thought and then the yearning was gone :)

HA!! You got me. Anyway we left in the 8th when they were losing 9-2, then watched them at home pull within one run but still lose. Damn team. Plenty of beer drinkers and drunks of all kinds. Still glad I didn't drink, though.

And I remember when the Astros were a real team back in the 80's even!

Keep going forward Augustwest!
During my first full weekend of sobriety (this time around) I made sure to make my schedule in such a way that I wouldn't make it to a bottle shop in case I got weak.
