Finally Got Back To Work

Finally got back to work tonight, beginning a business plan for a part-time web consulting business I hope to open by 1 December. I also posted to my real blog at www.jacoulter.com. I mentioned some of the problems drinking have caused.

An interesting article in today's L.A. Times on acceptance of a new definition alcohol abuse that more clearly identifies it as separate from alcohol dependence:
You can cut back on alcohol. Guess I'm proof that you can cut back or cut it out all together without outside assistance. I've done it several times in the past few years and used to do it without thinking because my drinking was confined to occasional weekends or special events. Since coming here and starting a new career I became an almost daily drinker, getting hammered at least once usually more times a week.

But the fun finally wore off after five years and I'm finding everyday I'm sober to be better than the last. It's almost like visiting a strange country.
