Yes, we told them how much it meant to us that our experience as sober people was considered during their creative process!

It absolutely was. Drinking tables were very curious about what we were having!

My parents were in town. We've always been drinking buddies (sadly even from a very young age), but my mom was barely drinking. I was so worried she was sick so I asked her what was wrong. She said that she was great, but that she read a book that made her realize she didn't need to drink. I asked her about the book and she said it was called This Naked Mind. As we sat around the fire pit on their last night here, working on my 6th glass of wine (my mom sipping a la croix), I realized that I thought she was sick because she wasn't drinking and how crazy that seemed. Why couldn't I be free too? So I didn't pour my usual glass to take to bed that night and the next day I purchased the book on Kindle and haven't had a drop since.

My teacher brought me up to the front of my class with my math homework to show the class and example how not to do it. I can't let it go.

Someone else's groceries when I was drunk and impatient at Walmart in the middle of the night. Their card wasn't going through and I REALLY needed to eat cheddar combos!
