I have quitted worse. Alcohol always tasted bad to me.
Even if I was drinking from my pocket bottles in the bus at 17.
Also drank rum-in-the-cone. A water cone full of rum was 40 cents at the time.
Two cases of beer was my normal for a regular 1 day party.
When I grew up (like at 20) a 750 of Belvedere was part of my daily diet. Shots.
I have Havana Club, Belvedere and Malibu in the house right now.
I haven't had a Mojito in three weeks. Or any alcohol, for that matter.
My times of drinking alone have passed. I don't crave it anymore.
La Bruja drinks two glasses a day of cheap wine. And stops.
You can kill her and she won't take another zip.
So I don't really have a drinking buddy.

I know one thing. Proximity killed the cat.
I go to Miami and go biserk. In every aspect.

All you need to quit is 24 hrs sober.
