Well, its been a couple of days sans booze which is no big deal for most people but at a small accomplishment for me. I've had a headache for two days. I feel tired, and I'm a bit nauseous first thing in the morning. I'm also having trouble sleeping. Actually its a lot like a hangover which seems terribly unfair since I didn't get to enjoy the booze to cause it! Its difficult to fight the urge to stop off at the neighborhood bar on the way home from work but so far so good. If I drive right home and start studying immediately (I'm testing for a PT cert. soon) it helps take my mind off it. My wife is still glum but I'm taking her on a trip next weekend so hopefully getting away will brighten her life a little. I haven't been to the gym since I've felt so bad but I figure within a few days I'll recover a bit more and can hit it again. I'm going to hire a trainer for just a bit to get me back into a routine. If I can get myself as addicted to working out as I've been to alcohol I should be a superman in a year!
