Thank you to those who have confidence in my ability to say no.
For the record, I DID say that I could go without tequlia and whiskey for 10 days. And I totally can!!! That said, I had my last Irish Club meeting tonight (I will miss that group!) so, yes, I've had a couple of beers, lol!
Here is my 10-day schedule and the odds of me drinking. I'm taking bets, BTW:
Wednesday: Watching Lost and packing. Odds of JG drinking beer? 10 -1. Whiskey/tequlia? 50-1
Thursday: Last trip to Atlantic City for a while. Visit to the Irish Pub. The house will not be taking bets this day.
Friday: Packing and shopping. Odds of JG drinking? 20-1
Saturday: Going away party. Beer is a given. Odds of shots of Irish whiskey with the cousins? 1-1. (Actually, the house is not taking bets for this either.)
Sunday: Likely hungover. More packing. Flight to AZ at 7:17 a.m. the next day. Job interview the next day. Odds of JG drinking? 50-1
Monday: Monday Night Football in AZ. The house is not taking bets for this.
Tuesday: Flying back to Jersey. More packing. Long plane ride though. Beer and wine pays 15-1.
Wednesday: Packing. Cleaning. Stressing. Odds of beer? 2-1.
Thursday: Packing. Cleaning. Stressing. Odds of beer? 2-1
Friday: Settlement. Lunch with parents in from Florida. Starting the long ass drive to AZ. Odds of drinking? ZERO!
Place your bets! Bring out your dead!
