You don't need alcohol to have fun!!!

I did not have a topic in mind for this evening's blog so I plan to just start yapping and hope I touch on something good. This weekend, I plan to attend a birthday party for an acquaintance of mine and I am really excited about it. It's an adult theme so after the official party is over we plan to head to a local bar for dancing. Apparently there's an amazing band in the local area and they will be playing. I am interested in seeing how things go because as you may remember, I am no longer drinking. Matter of fact, I am almost 6 weeks sober from alcohol. So obviously I will not be drinking this weekend. Instead of bemoaning the fact that everyone else will be drinking and I won't, I have been thinking about all of the positive aspects of not drinking: it's cheaper, I won't be drinking and driving, I won't feel like shit the next day, I will be clear headed so I will be able to better observe social interactions and behavior which I find extremely fascinating. Also, I have a babysitter for my son and I can enjoy my time with him without feeling ill afterward. I am looking forward to what this experience brings and of course I will be posting about it here. Stay tuned!!!
