Direction of the Wind

Suppose I should say why I started this.  I began this as a way to keep myself motivated and focused on what I need to do.  I just recently decided to quit drinking.  It's been two days and I can only surmise that sobriety is insanely boring.  I made some poor choices and said lots of things that didn't need to be said while drinking.  I've come to the point where I hate waking up feeling like shit and sweating out booze.  Plus, working out hungover isn't fun.  I realize Germany isn't going to be the easiest place to quit drinking but it's either that or wait til it becomes a real problem.  I love drinking and I love being drunk.  At what cost?

I won't say that I have a drinking problem.  The problem really is what I do while drinking.  From relieving myself in places I shouldn't, insulting my friends, dragging up bad memories and being obnoxious to the point where no one wants to be seen with you.  All of it happens.  And quite frankly, I'd like to be able to remember where I put things the next morning.

With all that being said, this isn't going to be about me piss-whining about how much I want to drink but won't allow myself.  I'll include anecdotes from the day.  Funny embarrassing stories.  Events happening in my life that probably wouldn't matter anywhere else except for the internet. 

Really, if you don't look at porn all day or watch stupid YouTube videos, you browse through people's Facebooks, Twitters, Myspaces and other various forms of the social networking machines and wonder how you ever kept in touch with people.  With that being said, let the blogging that I have always made fun of begin.
