Looking forward to Tuesday march 3rd. That'll be 200 days sober for me. I feel great. But I'm still on guard and weary. There is no room for overconfidence, arrogance or frivolousness. I drank like a fish for fifteen years. So 200 days=a hell of a lot farther to go. I've taken one step on a million mile journey.

Don't crave alcohol. But lately i have been craving weed. Strong cravings. Really felt like smoking a spliff. Don't know what it is. Weeds all over american t.v nowadays. Legalized here legalized there..internet articles proclaiming the innocuous nature of weed. But I won't have it. Smoked everyday for fifteen years..I'm through. Must stay focused. Sobriety. Complete.

Last night. Jogging at park. Past the softball field. Saw a crowd of dudes. Presumably part of a softball league. Finished playing a few games. They had the truck beds down. A barbecue pit smokin. A few ice chests out. They were huddled around. Pounding beers. And laughing and shouting at each other the way dudes do when they drink. That once was me I thought as I jogged by and kept on without looking back. Was. Good riddance. Tomorrow 200 days sober.

Being sober I find I don't worry about my internal organs. When I was an alcoholic I constantly worried about my liver, kidneys, and pancreas. It sounds weird. Worrying about internal organs. But did. Now I don't.

A cold beer on a hot day..a stiff whiskey on a cold night..a bottle of wine at the beach in the evening...do I miss them? No. Because I can't/won't romanticize alcohol. When it comes to my drinking I must look back with a cold clinical eye. Alcohol cost me family, friendships, time and money..alcohol was murdering me.
