Day 3: Dad’s Birthday
I woke up not hungover, my tooth was in pain but manageable with Advil. it’s getting worse. Usually, my drinking gets heavier with a toothache, but drinking doesn’t seem as desirable today for me-now at 10 am. also, it is my Father’s Biday. yes, I have daddy issues. 89 he would have been. my immediate […]

Drank a bottle of champagne
It seems as if day 13 is a hard one for me. and i gave into the craving and bought a bottle of prosecco and drank half of it and dumped it out, then the next day i did the same thing. it is so easy to get into the cycle.
