The Senator Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 The diet starts on Monday. I am going to try and I do say try, not to have any wine for 30 days. I will try not to have any thing on the wife's birthday. I will be drinking watching the game. Has it been 30 days already? Tempus fugit. No wine, beer, or booze for a month - and I feel totally cleansed.
The Senator Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Wine every night now. Salud! THE HEALTH BENEFITS OF WINE
Chef Jim Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 interesting thread you have going here. i've been sober for 3 years but i do and always will celebrate 4:20 Then you're not sober.
plenzmd1 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Then you're not sober. twas my first thought
Guest three3 Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 and someone who uses pain killers (vicodin, advil, tylenol etc) while not drinking alcohol is considered sober?
Marv's Neighbor Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Wine every night now. Hope you have a supply in house, it may be a while before you get out again.
Chef Jim Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 and someone who uses pain killers (vicodin, advil, tylenol etc) while not drinking alcohol is considered sober? No they would not be sober. Hope you have a supply in house, it may be a while before you get out again. I heard he's fermenting his old socks.
CowgirlsFan Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 Wine every night now. Some vanilla vodka for me now.

WotAGuy Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 and someone who uses pain killers (vicodin, advil, tylenol etc) while not drinking alcohol is considered sober? My understanding is if I am taking a narcotic of any kind, I do not consider myself sober, because of the mind-altering aspect (side effect?) of narcotics. Tylenol and Advil are non-narcotic, and so would not compromise my sobriety. But each person really defines their own sobriety, because, really, no one else cares what we do!

Chef and Crayonz do evidently.
Chef Jim Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 Chef and Crayonz do evidently. Only if it effects us and sometimes it does.

So, if I'm drunk as a skunk, but claim that I'm sober, then I am?.......Other than that, I agree. Tylenol, Advil are not going to compromise sobriety. Vidodin, etc. would. And to say you're sober, except for pot makes no sense......Not the first time I've heard it, though.

Many people think sobriety only has to do with alcohol.

So you don't drink but you smoke weed every day and you think you're sober? Good for you. But you'd be wrong in most people's book.
bbb Posted February 4, 2011 Posted February 4, 2011 So you don't drink but you smoke weed every day and you think you're sober? Good for you. But you'd be wrong in most people's book. You're probably not sober if your going with the Advil defense.
