If an alcoholic starts drinking again, they go right back to where they were when they stopped. When I went into treatment I would have sworn that I was completely sober. They did a blood test, and I was at .10, which was the legal limit for driving in my state, back then, almost forty years ago.

Good work though. My question is, over the past week, have you always put the toilet lid down when you were done using it?
