And it could be a great day, a horrible one, no rhyme or reason to it. But it happens maybe once a week, sometimes every other week, sometimes it is a month between them.
But today is one and ... not drinking feels like I am a fish out of water .. still getting use to this.
Knowing one day drunk can make me lose everything - just as it has in the past - knowing how disappointed everyone would be - that keeps me from doing it
But what do you do on a sober drinking day?

Well at the shows it's basically a drinking week for me. At home I try to limit myself to drinking 1 day a week. Sometimes it turns out to be 2 or 3 if there are sporting events etc. What keeps me from drinking though, to answer your question, is I think about how SHITTY I feel after a long ass binge. It would take me a f'n week to recover from the shows, and if I go 2 days in a row now I'm really hurtin for a day or two after. Just not worth it.
So if you felt like ass after your binge, just think about that some and hopefully it will help you out. Good luck
