Tomorrow I will have been 2 weeks sober

Posted By: Adam 2 Comments

What started out as a sympathy-sobriety for Megan's… uh… situation… has inspired me to do more. I can't make any promises, because quitting things is hard; but my goal is to give up the drink for good. And I'm making some good progress so far. I will have been 2 weeks sober tomorrow — Saturday.

I figure that I have enough medical problems as-is; I don't need to knowingly put more of my body at risk. I wouldn't bake in the sun without sunscreen or smoke cigarettes, so why should I tempt my liver?

Here's to taking care of yourself! 

The next seven days will be rife with temptation. I am helping to run an unconference in Philly today (with a happy hour afterward); and next week I'll be out of town for a 3 day ColdFusion conference (which is just shy of a 3-day happy hour). I predict that my Diet Coke intake will be through the roof.

  1. A bit misleading headline I think. Going sober implies a change from being drunk. Never thought of you or Meg as in that category. Maybe 'dry' would be more accurate.

    In any case, nice that you're sympathetic to the cause and showing support for! Hope the temptation goes away quickly!
