And yet, it took a long while for me to get there. A lot of time in which I treated a lot of people very poorly. But, here we are today.

This is my fifth holiday season sober; I just spent a week w/ my family, incl. a nephew who I adore; & I wouldn't have it any other way.

I've had an amazing past 5 years, & I can't say it's *all* bc I got sober, but I know it would be a lot worse if I wasn't. A lot.

None of this is to say I'm opposed to others drinking. I still have amazing nights, when I'm feeling it, out w friends who are drinking.

But, for some people, it doesn't work. & I am most certainly one of those people. So, I'm sober -- & I think I'm much better this way.

In any event, it's 2:30, so, bar closing time back in Columbus, where I did much of my damage, and DC, where I quit, so ... here we are.

Twitter has known me back when I was still drinking, tho v few of you were following me back then. But, among them were some sober people.
