Call me crazy... but maybe you ought to try and die out of your vagina less!? Not saying give up drinking, just less -dying out of my vagina- style drinking. I've heard that one glass of water between every drink does wonders, though I've never had the will power to do it. Good luck with the working out, you seemed fit and energetic at the Hubski gathering. Great work!

I'm trying to cut the drinking back to once a week. It's hard though because I work kid's parties on the weekends so I never party friday or saturday night. And I end up hanging out with 2 separate groups of friends during the week, planning on it being a low key night, and then failing miserably. And then Sunday night the girls and me from work end up killing a case of beer while we do out post-weekend deep clean.

Curious... How are you doing with this?

Everything has changed since I started this new job. I party hard saturday nights but I still end up drinking once during the week after work with work mates. Now that I'm settling in, I don't go overboard because I know how miserable I am when I'm hungover at work.

How are you doing with your goals?

I'm good. I set the goal to run a 1/2 marathon in Oct and couldn't wait that long. I ran my first at the beginning of June. I still plan on running the Woodrow Wilson Bridge 1/2 in DC in October.

The hardest goal has been the one I set for NYE of being a vegetarian. It's getting harder all the time. I really miss eating meat. I was hell bent on lasting a whole year but I'm not sure I want to anymore. I actually feel like I'm missing out on some great experiences. I am fortunate to be able to go to some nice restaurants and I know that I'm not experiencing them in full. -This troubles me.

If you're in Durham again for a game, let me know. Veggie burgers are on me ;-)

At least your cutting back, that's good. You're feeling less DOMV and are working out too. This is good stuff. I went back to that bar Roxy tonight to get their corpse reviver again. -Good stuff.

Any chance of merging said groups of friends in to one?
