do you want a dry july?

Occupied as i was with my self-love fest yesterday, celebrating my one year of sobriety, i didn’t update you on Team 100 progress… Here are some things you should know 🙂

Happy 100 days today to Lauren! 

Happy 100 days yesterday to Rebecca!

There are some great sober bloggers. I’m a fan of Belle over at Tired of Thinking about Drinking. I also like One Too Many. They prove to me the thing I’ve been desperately searching for ever since I read Henry Miller’s Tropic of Capricorn: Being a drunk isn’t a prerequisite for being a good writer.

I guess the biggest thing I realized in this 100 days is that I don’t have to come up with an answer for the question: What can I drink now? I know I can drink whatever I want, really. I guess it’s more, What do I want to drink now? And the answer is soda water with a splash of strawberry juice please! Although I might try this NSFW-named mocktail as well.

If you’d like to sign up to do your own personal version of ‘dry july’, you can read more about the 100 day challenge here. I think I’ve got room for about 4 more people to join!

I want to put this online, to hold myself accountable. I want to document the noise in my head. I'm tired of thinking about drinking. date of last drink: june 30, 2012
