It's really been a struggle for me but I've managed to go this far and I'm determined to make it. Hopefully Bread and Panic won't put that peer pressure on me like they have in weeks past.

I think you need to go by an 8 ball of blow tonight and go get a 12 pack of Heineken and have some fun. In all honesty you should do this.

Nice job, BBD. Me and Bread did not entice you to stray. You wanted to do that on your own. We talked you out of it.

Bread always is trying to get me to drink with him. He even went as far as posting on mysbr blog trying to get me to do so. I really think he wants me to fail sir.

BBD are you just trying to make it to a year or are you going to continue your sobriety?
Either way congrats.

I'm sure he meant a tall glass of milk.

congratulations on the accomplishment. Dont get cocky about though, that will be a recipe for disaster.
I have had a few periods of sobriety over the years but never a full year. Currently on one of my slow down fazes.
Have you done it on your own or are you active in a program?

Mr. Dan, this is really a great accomplishment. 365 days of 24 hrs. Is quite staggering when you think about it. Is this your first attempt at quitting?

I'm never sure if things are on the level or I'm walking into some kind of Players Talk inside joke, but I will respond on the level:
That's fantastic. I'm curious about your answers to the questions about your motivations and intentions.
I will say this: I know people give you a hard time about spelling and grammar but I have seen quite a bit of improvement from you in that area in the last year or so. It has been gradual but it has added up to something significant. I sometimes think that someone else has started using your account. I mean that only as a compliment.
I don't know if that is something you are purposely working at and/or it goes hand-in-hand with sobriety, but I thought I'd mention it.

Thanks for the kind words everyone
Mudcat, This actually all started out with a simple bar type bet and kinda snowballed into what it is as of right now. Don't know if their is a connection or not in regards to your thoughts (maybe/maybe not), however I will say this. It does make me think about trying to push my motivation factors to even a higher level.

OK Danny here is the skinny (I know you understand that term because you're old)
Do I want you to drink with me? Hell yes I do! I want everyone to drink with me!
But this is internet lands and nothing makes sense here.
If this is all real, and you tell me it's real, then honestly, congratulations. And I mean that. I know, and I'm related to many many alcoholics. It's a good thing to get away from if it destroys you. And I commend you on your year.
If this is all fake, fk you. LET'S DRINK!!!

Let just put it this way sir. I didn't drink a drop of alcohol while I was at the bash last August. So you tell me how serious I am when it comes to my sobriety.
Just feel fortunate that I'm not one of those types of people who tries to get other people to quit drinking just because they did.
