7 Days Sober

Well - here I am. Actually 8 days sober and attempting to re-create that stream of conciousness that has been slapping me in the back of the head all week.
I've had a love-hate relationship with drinking nearly all my life and I've known about this addition since I was 15. In an offensive way it has probably saved me from worse things. Imagine my 16 year old self... "Cocaine? No thanks - I know how I am with alcohol and cigarettes- let's not add a costly illegal substance to my treat bag. I'll probably REALLY like it"
This is I think my 3rd or 4th trip to abstain forever. Those were obvious failures or I wouldn't be here. The act of not having a drink hasn't been difficult, the art of understanding why I want 12 is.
So here I am. Sub-par grammer, bare bones blog page and a need to speak.
