3 weeks today and what I’ve learnt today is that people at work who I couldn’t tolerate 3 weeks ago I can now hold a meaningful conversation, more people have a smile and a hello for me. Without alcohol I must be more approachable, I must be better company instead of the bleary eyed, red faced bloke that always had a hangover, even though I never had a hangover just a bit less alcohol in my blood than I normally do, and just wanted to be left alone to do my job. I also listen more instead of flying off the handle because I think I know what someone is going to say and getting all angry and defensive. Life is good, enjoy it you only get one shot (maybe). Be strong Be You.

I’ve not heard of him before gonna check out some of his other stuff but was it John Lee hooker who sang a song like that, no jokes this time I can’t remember but I’ve heard it somewhere
He might have done. Most blues started with John Lee Hooker!

Actually it’s not good night… I am wide awake. My body says sleep my eyes say sleep my yawns say sleep my brain says HEY MAN LET’S GET SOME SHIT TOGETHER, LET’S GET STONED LET’S CHILL OUT MAN YOU WANNA SLEEP SMOKE SOME WEED WHO’S GOING TO KNOW. Well no, I’ll sit here all night if I have to, there must be someone in Australia waking up soon. Hey one of you must hate fosters. In fairness I doubt anyone could get addicted to Fosters, they forgot to put the alcohol in it.
Do they actually have Fosters. I thought Australians couldn’t give a castlemain xxxx for anything else
Struf im not sure mate, let me ask flipper. Flipper says down at the creek they sell fosters but it’s just for the shiela’s. Ripper.

I really can’t sleep. My Mrs says get off my phone but I’m not tired i would just wonder around. Do you sleep well.
Keep at it
Cheers. I think I’ve cracked the booze but this is day one no weed no tobacco and I’m not sleeping, thank god I’m off work tomorrow. How are you doing.
Early days I was all over the place with sleep. Sometimes I would fall asleep then wake up 3/4 hours later. Other times I’d not be able to sleep.
It gets better. Though at the moment I’m struggling a bit. Tend to wake up about 2/3 in the morning.
My wife says to get off the screen as well.
To me, not you.
They have got a point though it can’t be healthy, I think i 'll suggest drinking see how they feel about that.
Or having a joint.
I know if I have one I will sleep but what you don’t know is my Mrs smokes right beside me so I think I’m doing well myself. I’ve made my mind up and I’m a stubborn bastard.
Makes it even harder if she’s smoking still!
It’s not great but what you gonna do. She might stop if I do but she definitely won’t if I carry on.

There is that. I was wondering earlier, it sounded like you still had some in the house. That would be why.
