It’s my birthday. There is a wrapped up bottle on the counter in my kitchen. I’m betting on some bourbon. Will know at 5:00.

Well I lapsed, but I'm not really bothered by it tbh. Yesterday I had a **** day and just wanted a bit of oblivion and felt like I needed a drink like I needed my right hand, and when I didn't get any booze it sucked. But today was pretty alright as BK days go and I didn't feel like I needed a drink so much as I was looking forward to unwinding with a nice binge drink session.

Maybe alcoholism is just being sneaky but I think what I really want is just to not have some 1-day-on-1-day-off schedule that feels like a second job that's about making my **** life go away for a while. I don't feel like I've failed right now, I just feel like today is a good day all things considered and I'm getting a bit knackered to cap it off. I went two days longer without a drink than I almost ever do anymore so at least I know I can get over that hump of needing a drink right the **** now.

But the next time I've had a day I just feel the need to erase I think I'll just skip the booze and wait till I'm in a more level-headed place.

Of course, faggot. TBH tho I probably lapsed because of my avatar. It's pretty convincing.

If only getting blackout drunk led to a tryst with James Marsters.

And I like how the moral of that episode at first was, "Yes your job sucks but it's not the end of the world, just live with it," but by the end it was, "Yes your job is potentially the end of the world so burnt that **** to the ground."

ever tried to just smoke only weed and no alcohol. its not as easy as it sounds but its a generic way to be sober from the harder drugs out there
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I think all I really want in the end is to keep it manageable at like twice a week or so and not trying to drink the pain away. I love being drunk too much to actually want to give it up. I just want to keep it fun and not one more thing making me miserable.
