I'd say we concocted the perfect birthday celebration that left me both hungover and exhausted, but it was amazing. 4-day staycation, successfully completed operation "Surprise Mom" with Barclay's arrival at happy hour (video is on mom's facebook, pretty priceless), wonderful steak/seafood dinner at A&B, boat day on Boca Grande, and a ridiculous late night happy hour at the Gecko with Matty Q playing our favorite cheesy late 90's pop hits.
All of that left me with less than zero desire to drink for a while anyway, so this should be easy to start out. A lot of people (*cough cough* Courtney D and C) still want me to alter the plan, but I really want this, so here goes nothing. I have a nice bottle of red wine on the counter that hasn't been touched...can't decide if I should leave it to drink in a year or give it away...I think giving it away is the smartest plan. I also already cooked a wonderful dinner tonight instead of my normal Tuesday night Gecko dinner accompanied by 5 grape bombs and countless vodka sodas.
Obviously two days in I don't feel any physical differences, I wasn't drinking 7 days a week to begin with, but the excitement of what's to come has me full of good energy. Ohhh also since my last post, my dad has decided to add my to challenge by pledging $4 for every day I make it. I didn't ask for this, but I'm competitive so that potential bonus at the end makes it even more fun. Thanks dad :)
I had a great time with you on the island, Kenny. My one legged squat beer chug, eating salads like I shouldn't, having everyone help mix my orange into my blue moon, It was all hilarious:) If there is anything I can do to help you throughout this year please let me know.
