I'm going to the Travis concert tonight. You know that band that kind of sounds like Coldplay?
anyway, I'm afraid I have to get really f**ked up for it, since crowds make me nervous :(
I know this post is a month old but I want to encourage people to make good choices. There is a lot of talk in AA and other support groups about “people, places, and things” and the need to avoid triggers that make you want to drink. Sometimes it’s difficult to impossible—if, say, a family member is a drinking buddy. But do what you can. My one quirky example: I didn’t listen to the Pogues for years after I initially got sober because the music made me want to drink. And the usual stuff—avoided bars, didn’t wear clothing with alcohol brands, had no alcohol in the house.
