Sober in Suck City

day 1

As a prominent member in the bar scene in Brooklyn, most of my colleagues are in the same boat... We drink too much, smoke too many cigarettes, eat poorly, and don't hold each other accountable.  My friends and co workers have seen me black out on numerous occasions. "It happens" they say, "I did last week", or "I was up until 7 am partying last night".  It's almost a pissing contest of who gets the most pissed.  

Today is the first day I've spent sober in over a month. I spent five days out of March sober because I threw up blood, and was too scared to go to a doctor and have them tell me something I already knew. I'm an alcoholic.

I'm going to post here every day to keep me on the right path.
