Sunday, I celebrated 90 days sober, also 90 dyas I severed all ties with almost evryone I hung out with because they all used. So I began trying to build a new life, new friends, etc, stripped of the self-medication of alcohol and drugs, I had no confidence in myself, no self-esteem, I wallowed in self-pity, I went to AA meetings and just sat there and listened, then I was surprised that no one came up and talked to me after the meetings. Anyway, I finally decided to speak up in the meetings and be more pro-active in meeting people, then all of the sudden, at the women's only groups, everybody starts talking to me, asking me for my number, asking me out to dinner, tonight four of us went to dinner, two of us celebrating AA birthdays, all thes, the other three were much younger, I never had so much fun at dinner before, we all acted goofy and giddy, kinda like we were drunk, really amazing.
Whereas, a couple weeks ago, I had virtually no one to even talk to, now I have a phone list of over 40 women who want to get to know me. And more invitations to go out than I can accept.
Three weeks from now I will be in Tokyo on my way to Phuket for my SRS/BA. So I guess it will only keep getting better!
