That I get to do the work I do, am blessed with the family and friends I have, and have the amazing fun I have almost stops me in my tracks.

Then, I remember that six years ago tonight I went to bed sober and have done so every night since. And that has made all of this possible.
-
I never imagined where stopping drinking would lead me—& I still make mistakes large & small every day—but I live a very different life now.
-
As the Supreme Court finished handing down decisions today, I looked around and thought about how truly grateful I am to be alive right now.
-
I work with such fantastic people, both at the court and at BuzzFeed, and I get to cover some of the most important stories of the day.

It's often stressful—life is!—and I am so grateful that, w/ help, I removed what was becoming an ever bigger & bigger stressor from my life.
-
So, I go to bed tonight thrilled to be done with another SCOTUS decision month—but even more thrilled that I got to do so sober, again.

Some say sobriety is a gift of a second life, and, looking back over my past year, it's hard to argue with that. So humbly grateful.

All right. I should sleep.
Night, all, and let us be good to one another.
