I found myself at the bar buying my lady a drink at a club we went to, and let me tell you that Macallin 18 yr sherry oak was calling my name like my mama when the street lights turn on, but I stayed strong. Also I almost had a moment of weakness where my girl asked me to hold her drink to take a pic with her friend. I felt my dark side saying "just one sip come on it's your birthday, who doesn't drink on there birthday?" Then I thought about the value of being able to drive home when the club closed. and not waking up in a cell, and being able to remember what I said and did. So it was a birthday to remember....literally!

Holy moly why would you do that to yourself. That's literal torture. I'd just avoid that all together because putting yourself in situations like that isn't going to end well one of these times

I did something like that once. I was so proud of myself that I celebrated by relapsing the next day. I don’t test my sobriety anymore. It’s hard to ace every test, so I don’t take them.
