We may be anonymous strangers on the internet, but we have one thing in common. We may be a world apart, but we’re here together!
Welcome to the 24 hour pledge! I’m pledging myself to not drinking today, and invite you to do the same.
Maybe you’re new to c/stopdrinking and have a hard time deciding what to do next. Maybe you’re like me and feel you need a daily commitment or maybe you’ve been sober for a long time and want to inspire others.
It doesn’t matter if you’re still hung over from a three day bender or been sober for years, if you just woke up or have already completed a sober day. For the next 24 hours, let’s not drink alcohol!
Day 17. Almost feel hungover this morning. But, I’m not. Slept fairly decent. At least it’s Friday, hoping for tomorrow off work, but with sickness and life I’ll be the only one wrenching this day. But not drinking! I’ll not be drinking with this fine crowd today!
Awwww. Stomach bug?
One guy down with pneumonia. The other (part-time) just too busy today. Almost all my drivers get back on Friday, so it’s my busiest day. Luckily I’m feeling well, just somewhat tired this morning. I’ll kill a monster and soak up some coffee. All is well.
Good morning, fellow sobernauts, IWNDWYT 😁!
Morning! I’ll not be drinking with ya for the next 24,000 revolutionary miles (or so)!
Good news everyone! It’s Friday! Imma celebrate by getting a steak… and maybe a slushie and some gummy bears because I’m a child in a man’s body.
Sounds like a man’s meal to me… You a lumberjack?
Haha, my grandpa actually was and I’m built like one but sadly I’m just a boring, lowly code monkey. But I’m thinking about getting out of the tech field soon anyways.
Oh yeah!? What’s got your attention? (If ya don’t mind me asking?..)
I tried to learn a bit of code back in the day, never really made it past “Hello World!” In Python… It’s a pretty dedicated and ever evolving field. I’m a greasy old heavy truck mechanic. And I fucking love that shit! Hope you’re getting into something you love to wake up and dive into every day, man. It makes a real difference, I think.
I was contemplating a dinner of microwavable corn dogs, egg rolls, and pierogies myself 😂
I like to pretend like I’m 12 years old on Friday night again! Sometimes I even break into my retro gaming collection (though I’ve swapped the Mountain Dew out for Diet Coke, because Holy SHIT is that diabetes in a can?)
Update: I did have a super grown-up dinner of microwaveable corn dogs, chicken egg rolls, valentines day chocolate, and Diet Coke.
With a side of Cyberpunk 2077 for dessert! Adulting hard this evening! 😂
