Last Day Hooray!

So today, Tuesday was the last day of the 2 week challenge.

It started with me getting up after 1pm as usual.

My day began with a late lunch with Spencer at one of my favorite restaurants in the West End.  While there, we both stayed liquor free of course, just bs-ed about the business and relaxed.  Then the owner approaches me "Omg Denise omg!  I need your geek help!"

?  Geek?

She needed me to fix a computer that had a virus on it.  ughhhhhhhhhhh.   Not exactly my forte.  But I did it.  I'm a baller that saves computers' lives.

I digress.  She was like "Hey, let me get you a good drink, eh?"
"No, I'll stick to cappuccinos."
"Nonsense!" she says.  "You need a drink!"

Really?  REALLY?  Even restaurateurs are telling me to drink :(   I was good and stuck to espresso products.  What an afternoon though-- almost makes you need a...

I decided to head to Brentwood to look at new laptops and go shoe shopping (literally has taken the place of my drinking).  I guess saving money isn't easy when the things that replace drinking habits for me are more shopping and quality dinners out.   Hell I'm hard to train.

Planning to keep myself totally preoccupied, I then went to see the movie Inglorious Bastards with my friend Andrew.  AWESOME movie at the lovely Chase Park Plaza.

Long movie at the Chase Park Plaza...  Hm.  What time did that get over...

What? It's after midnight?  I could have a drink now, technically, couldn't I?

What? We have to go get the valet stub validated at the concierge table in my favorite martini bar in the West End, Cafe Eau?  Oh that is a shame.  (ME WANT DRINKY!!)

... I didn't do it.  For the 800th time today I was good.  No worries.  I will say I wanted to though.  Like how many people would have said "oh well, fuck it, it's the last day, have a drink."  I'M A PRO.

The whole way home I was like "So, friend, drinks? NO!  We shouldn't.  Well, Maybe we should,.. NO I won't.  Son of a bitch this is weird!"

Sadly, (but proudly) I went home.  Totally bored.  Totally awake.  Totally thinking how great Vodka, MegaTouch Photohunt, and Toasted Ravs with ranch sounded at Calico's.  FML

"No need to drink for the hell of it" I told myself.  That's my new goal anyway.
