That’s right folks!  I’m almost to the finish line.  This Tuesday will be the last of the 30 day sobriety test I put myself through and I have to say… not that hard.  It was rather odd at first though – but after that first week – things just carried on without much difference.  Yesterday was a test though… I was invited to go to Carver’s Boat Birthday Party on the lake.  I haven’t seen that much alcohol in a very long time and everyone except one girl was drinking – a lot… but I made it through the day.    Today, Monday, and Tuesday should be a cakewalk and I have to say – I’m rather proud of myself.  Carver had mentioned that he does it every year, 30 days before his birthday and I think I’m going to adopt that plan.  August 1-30 will be my Sober 30. 

This past week I decided to cut out alcohol from my “diet” for 30 days to see what (if any) affect it has on my workouts and progress towards that ever-so-daunting 150 lbs.  So far – I don’t see/feel any difference other than finding it slightly disconcerting not waking up Monday morning having mildly overdosed over the weekend.  The funny thing is I find myself having to remind others more than myself that I’m not drinking.  The first few days weren’t all that difficult – but going to Krave and not drinking was slightly off… I felt like I should be altered to endure Boringstar and his HORRIBLE spinning.  I think not being influenced by alcohol has led me to truly hate (“hate” is such a harsh word – I try to limit it’s use to twinks who cause drama unnecessarily and fat old bears offering to be generou$) dislike his DJing.  Not only could you tell he had no idea how to mix two beats together, but he f’d with the volume twice when someone walked up to him, and the best part – went completely silent for about 10 seconds in the middle of a song.  Besides looking literally as though someone literally dug him out of a grave, it leaves a lot to be desired.  Sobriety has shown me the light!

It’s about damn time! My first mobile post via my iPhone. Now all I need is for these friggin’ bugs to get worked out! I’m getting frustrated with waiting 10+ seconds for my texts and camera to start up. Cut and Paste would be nice too!
