I understand that it is infectious rather than contagious .....

 

I could really go for a beer this evening!

 

How about a pink lemonade instead??

 

I almost crashed off the wagon last night...and only made it because I reminded myself that the penalty was to have to start the 12 months over...

 

You're doing extremelly well....and whenever you have a weak moment like that....stop for a second and think about how long you've gone and how proud you should be....you have serious bragging rights here babe.....use this as your strength when you get close to crashing k? please outslip:

 

Oddly enough, I'm not really proud of the accomplishment. I mean, I recognize that it's a challenge, but for some reason I don't feel the sense of having done something monumental.

However, I really would like a drink, so I figure the best option is to wait until New Years Eve rather than having one drink and having to wait another year...

 

I can't believe that you have managed this long Barney

I was craving a cigarette the other night, but told myself that if you could give up drinking for year, I should at least be able to give up smoking ......

 

More than anything, it feels like a 12 month inconvenience!

Geez...kinda scary that you're using ME as a benchmark!

 

Just shows you how low I have sunk !!!!
