Nov 21, 2020 (Sat)

Drinking - Yes (212/116)

Paid work - Saturday so no.

Creative work - had an insight into story flow (for the current section) and realized what I needed to do to fix it...and went ahead and fixed it.  Which made the need for a couple more quick shots...which I don't have.  So I started on those.  Overall, happy with the direction.

Overall - every time I have a sober day, I "wish" this could continue.  I think if I fight, I can have more.  It's so easy to slip back, though.  As I did.  I don't know what happened, I reopened it because I was...bored?  I don't know.

See you tomorrow.
