>>>>No. I know going to AA meetings seems like the all-purpose solution to non-alcoholics. I went to some of them and didn't think they were doing me any good. On Monday, though, I promised Emily that if I get the urge to drink I will go to the damn meetings.

>>>>Please feel free to email me if you want to but I want to stop blathering on publicly about my personal stuff. I realize just about everyone is tired of hearing it.

>>What is this obsession with going every day or even multiple times a day? Today, for instance, there is not a chance in the world I will drink. To me spending all my time in meetings with other people who have drinking problems, talking about how many problems it causes us, would almost be worse than being a drunk. Almost.

>>Off to the dentist, then much more to do today. I am getting everything possible out of the way before the class starts on Monday.
