WooHoo...I did it. It's weird but I really am happy and feel accomplished. Shit, it's only been 38 days sober but I don't care...one day at a time. I got a sweet medallion and a couple marbles for graduation, gotta love marbles.
Best part, I get to ride the newly finished fixie into work tomorrow! It's my first road bike, a Marinoni, repainted by a friend, and done up with most likely too nice of parts. But the money I am saving by not drinking affords me much more money for tangible type items. I love consumerism!
One part of treatment they make us figure out how much our addiction cost us. Wow, it adds up quick. We estimated about 29K in booze over the years and a total around 125K! That's with the cost of treatment, a couple of surgeries, x-rays, some stitches, and bad decisions. Damn. So I bought and I-Pod touch...pretty sweet stuff.
Thanks for all the support!
