4 Months

Well, I almost forgot among the excitement of the weekend, that June 3rd has gone by and that means I have now been sober for 4 months now. That is one third of a year and I find that my friends and specialy girlfriend has been very supportive of my decision of being dry. Even though at times it has been tough, I never thought twice in even having a sip. Many people must think I was an alcoholic before and that's not the case, but when I drank, I drank just too much and usually during a short period of time. Lot of cases, I got out of hand and after February 3rd, I poured down 1/4 of a 40oz of rum and just gave up. Not a big deal really, I still feel that I still have a good time downtwon and get down with the girl. Yes, Tiffany, that's you and in a lot of cases she does down further than me. Plus, being a sober driver has a few pluses. The first one and most important one, I get my close friends home safely. The other thing is that we save money where we don't have to take cabs anymore.

So I am proud of myself, even though a few people still see my as otherwise. It's not as easy as you think, but it is not that hard either. Thanks to my friends and girlfriend for not forcing it around me, very appreciative. I am one lucky guy.
