March 27*

Day 27 - a suck of a day. Drama at work. I was a tattletale on the consultant today, and I immediately regretted it. But…BUT the fucker is doing all kinds of stuff behind my back and I can’t do...

March 26

26 days in. I’ve written every day in March, and I like it! I’ve liked not drinking as well. I wake up feeling clear and good, for the most part. And while I thought it would be hard and I’d ...

March 25

25 days dry. But my dog isn’t faring so well. Today my puppy drank some of my coffee when I walked away from my desk. It was a latte. I should know better than to walk away with anything left ...

March 24

I’m going to start this entry at work because I’m going out with my friend who’s in town for work tonight. We’re going to have sushi at my fave place. Too bad I’m not drinking or we would do it...

March 23

Today was a 6.5. 23 days no booze. I caved and texted the Bulldog, telling him that I missed him. He texted back exactly NINE hours and 45 minutes later. He didn’t say he missed me back, so ...

March 22*

Well, I just slammed my finger in the car door, so we’ll see how this entry goes. Hurts like a motherfucker. Interesting day. Started out really blue, of course. And I feel like I’m ending on ...

March 21

It’s 8:30 on a Saturday night. I’m about to go to bed. This is pitiful. This morning I had to move my car by 7AM in order to avoid a parking ticket. I got up and dressed and took the dog out a...

March 20

20 days, no booze. Today has been a hard one. I would like a drink right now. A big dose of medicine to soothe my ache. But I won’t because I promised myself. It’s funny how being good to my...

March 19

Too tired to write, really. I had dinner with the Bulldog. I ended up saying I’m out and that I can’t do it anymore after feeling like an utter fool. He has no capacity for feeling good about a...

Here’s a Mini-RAD for you: Name: let’s call him Low Talker (LT for short) Age: 52 Occupation: Real Estate Developer We Met: Well, we started texting on Tinder a few days ago, and the next thi...

March 17

St. Patrick’s Day. I wore a brilliant blue dress with a bright green chain print on it. It was spectacular! And it was also boob-tacular because it was a wrap dress (that fell pretty low) and I...

March 16

Rush, rush, rush was the name of the game today. Was slammed at work after essentially being out of the office for two weeks. I didn’t get as much done as I wanted. Luckily, bought myself a da...

March 15*

15 days no alcohol. Halfway through the month. All’s well on that front. I spent a good chunk of today walking, and that was fantastic. I left the Bulldog’s place pretty early. I actually tol...

March 14

I am late in writing this. It’s actually the morning of March 15 now, but I was here in spirit, just typing away while I was doing other things. Ahem I’ll give March 14 a 7. After sleeping for ...

March 13

Friday the Thirteenth. It’s early on a Friday night and I’m tucking my pup and myself into bed. It’s been a long-ass week. Spent the whole week in non-stop meetings, and I do mean non-stop…fro...

March 12

Day 12, no drinking. I’d love a glass of champagne right about now. The Bulldog is absolutely ridiculous and I don’t think I can do this anymore. I sent him two texts today. The first one to...

March 11

Man, what a weird day. Started off strange as I was driving in to work at 7:30AM. I saw that my mom was calling. Okay, they never get up that early, so I knew it was some kind of urgent phone c...

March 10

At the end of the day, I’ll give it an 8.5. Sort of lying in bed, half sitting up, playing fetch with the puppy. This is the life. I just had a wonderful, wonderful dinner with the Bulldog. Be...

March 9

Today was better, but not by much. I give March 9th a rating of 5. I realize that my blues yesterday were a bit over the top, and it was rainy and gloomy again all day today, but I didn’t have ...

March 8

Rainy, depressing Sunday. Day 8 of no drinking, and it’s been pretty easy, other than the grumpiness. I don’t know if I’m seeing things more clearly or not, but it’s been ok - though I’ve bee...

March 7

So, I’m going back over to the Bulldog’s this afternoon, and I’m planning on spending the night again, so I’ll probably not get back on tonight to write at the end of the day. I find writing at ...

March 6

Greetings from the office. I am DOG TIRED from the show today. I am meeting with my staff today and getting some housekeeping done at the office and I’m not sure how long I will last this after...

March 5

On the plane back home. So far, I rate today a 6. Even though I had okay sleep (I guess), I woke up really tired and not really raring to go to the show today. Got up slowly, made coffee in my ...

March 4

I rate this day a 5.5. Day 4, no alcohol. Has been easy so far - even though I’m at a trade show! Vendor dinners and such, people wanting to party. And all I’ve wanted to do is come back to th...

March 3

On the plane. I’m sure I’ll start this entry and have to come back to it later tonight. I managed to re-work my skirt, and I love it! I have a black pleated leather skirt. It was knee length, ...
