    Abstinence Challenge

    Right!? I hate it when people want to hang out and drink--but only on their terms. Look, if you're not willing to stand in line at the liquor store with me for vodka pints at 9am, then we've really got nothing to talk about.

    BTW I've actually been trying to go out when people call lately. It helps keep me from being too freaking isolated, since I don't get out much otherwise (well, except that I do go to the bar for a few minutes almost every day). Surely my friends have noticed that I'm drinking water, or juice, or whatever, but no one's remarked on it at all yet. So I say it's totally your choice (especially now!) if you want to meet up while you've still decided not to drink, or to wait until you feel like having a few...

I'm avoiding them until this month is done I guess. NOW u wanna drink with me? No way u gotta be down to go out when there's piss on my pants and cops involved.

        Oh dude the AM purchase is soooooo painful. Ur never in a good way. I had one time that the girl at the cash register gave me the worst pitty look I have ever gotten to date. I had the shakes, couldn't really talk, and prob smelled something fierce. I went home, drank, and reflected on what a horrible life I had.

        OMG how horrible I was to myself. How could I treat me like that. I'm so greatful to be where I am now. How dare u trigger these terrible memories with such a hilarious comment. GOD!!!

            I've not been able to rack up any more than a couple AF days at a time, but just wanted to say congrats to all you who are doing the AF challenge-- you're stronger men and women than I. Continued success to all of you, and I hope to join the challenge soon!

              I will join you in not having a beer for the game tonight. Though I gotta say, last night at the bar while grading the students' homework, after my cranberry juice, I ordered an O'Doules. And I chugged that bastard like I'd been dying of thirst in the desert. Best four bucks I've spent in a long time, even if it was only a mirage.

                  I'm still in JD. Couple of rough days at the widget factory with a nice scoop of bac anxiety on top. Have you enjoyed that yet? Looking at 10AF tomorrow.

                    I keep having times where I am on the way to some meeting and I think man I wish I wasn't on bac because I'm too panicky. But once I get there, I'm fine. Today is 11 days for me. I'm totally winning. Now I gotta go 31 days. Can't let u go it alone for a whole day.

                        Hi Everyone

                        I'm still in, day 10 for me.

                        Had a read through the posts and nearly half way there already!

                        I'm up to 120 mg as of yesterday and feeling just fine.

                        Guitarista, like it, I've even got a gratitude book, not written in it for a while, time to start doing that again, thanks

                        Kroncarr - still getting the electical jolts but not as bad as they were, no fear of the heat causing mine though, I'm in Scotland and heat is not an issue for us!! we can only mow our lawns here if we have petrol lawnmowers, haha.

                        Mary - is it the weekend you have trouble with? great news you're going back up with bac, this is what I've done and so far so good.

                        Juan and JD - what can I say, I'm in this challenge to the end and you guy are too

                        Xadrian, may as well keep going? effortless effort, the best kind

                        Sorry if I've missed anyone out that's doing this challenge, again the power of a group such as this is simply awesome, thanks Juan for starting it.

                          Seeing stuff like this fuels the fire inside me to keep on doing...what it is that I do. :l

                          Electrical jolts are normal and pass.

                          See you this weekend Juan!

                          I scored a date with his wife!!! :H
