2. I'm sober
I'm at work, so I really have no choice.

Well, technically I do have a choice, but I made the ethical and legal choice and therefore I am sober.

And Merry Christmas to you WilliamPitt.

9. Sober is as sober does
Whatever that means.

Be well, Will.

But most of all, write well, Will.

And feel free to check in anytime. That's what Col. Tom calls a "shameless self promotion." www.whiterosesociety.org/Kincaid.html

Thanks for being there. I remember your efforts for Dennis. My wife was a convention delegate for Dennis here in WV.

11. It is almost 2 AM
technically it is no longer Clausmas. It's now my parents' anniversary. They have been married for 48 years. I thought, wow that's a long time. It's longer than I have even been alive.

14. Those of us who hate alcohol are sober.
Yes, it IS possible. Then again, if I could still drink, maybe I would.

15. I don't drink, so I'm also sober
I was visiting family yesterday and my uncle offered me a beer and everything basically stopped when I said "no thanks, I don't drink." It was kinda funny.

22. Yes
Alcohol is incompatible with my medication and aggravates a chronic illness.

So it was a sober one for me--and all the better for it.
