Day 25 - Sober Phish! 20.07.2024 27:43 ↓

I discuss last night's sober Phish show, then get a little soapboxy again about people making quitting harder than it needs to be.

Day 19 - Some Friendly Advice 14.07.2024 25:10 ↓

I go on a bit of a rant about geting your undies in a bunch over the actions and comments of people who don't know any better.

Day 18 - Quit History pt. 3 13.07.2024 22:55 ↓

DAY 17 - The Friday Night Uh-Ohs 12.07.2024 20:09 ↓

I skip pt. 3 of my drunk history for a quick accountability check. The albums of both Phish and Taylor Swift are discussed.

Despite a valiant effort I still don't get through the whole story of my 103-day quit last year.

I discuss the early days of my drinking.

Day 6 - Over the Moon 01.07.2024 18:29 ↓

I tell a harrowing story about a dead hard drive. Disclaimer: This entry has almost nothing to do with alcohol and/or sobriety.

Day 5 - You can't repeat the past 30.06.2024 23:00 ↓

I discuss some of the reasons I still want to drink and why those reasons are stupid.

Day 4 - I used to be easy to please, now I'm impossible to please. 29.06.2024 21:46 ↓

I add a couple items to my vision board and probably talk a little too much about Taylor Swift.

I discuss the sad truth of why I volunteered to teach summer school and share an exciting epiphany.

Excuses 26.06.2024 20:02 ↓

I discuss dinner at Mike's and find a bunch of terrible excuses not to quit just yet.

Happy place? No thanks. 25.06.2024 20:21 ↓

I talk Murder She Wrote hangovers, beach house and lake house missed opportunities, and why it can be harder for "gray area" drinkers to decide to quit.

It begins, maybe. 24.06.2024 25:50 ↓

The very first entry in my oral journal, in which I discuss a graduation party, a stupid night of Tetris, and other reasons I need to get sober.
