fbhjrBeing my 20th wedding anniversary today, I was looking back at other big milestones in my life.
Doing the math, as I do, I realized that yesterday was 10,000 days since I stopped drinking.
So, today is 10,001 days without a drink.
That's not bad.

OK, that time I got drunk and fell on my face, split my chin open and broke four teeth that still bother me now was a bit of a problem.
But, mostly, it was a lot of fun. For me.
Finally it was pointed out to me that it wasn't fun for those around me. And, I stopped.

Date: 2013-10-02 11:57 pm (UTC)As I wanted, and still want, my wife to like me, it made me think about it.
And, I decided not drinking was the best way to do that.
Don't get me wrong. I still want to drink. I do remember the fun I had.
And, there have been times I've been very, very tempted.
But, it comes back to wanting to be a person my wife likes...
