So I went to the AA meeting tonight. I think people were surprised that I was back.

I've got two months of sobriety now. I'm going to go to AA, simply because I desire to stop drinking - which is a good reason, as good as any.

It was pretty fun, I actually was a volunteer impromptu "greeter" at the door, because the one person who does is is very pregnant, and the other woman felt sick ... so that was fun! I was/am hyped up on caffeine - 3 cups in one day, which isn't a *lot* but I've eaten very little and nothing else to drink... so I was wired and happy saying hello to people. I also got thanked at the end of the meeting which was cool. I'm going to go back next week and do it again! Tomorrow I'll try to get myself to the AA meeting on my campus, which could be interesting. Stay tuned, stay sober peeps!

Edit: Oh, and I got to see people closer to my own age. They were at the meeting to "evaluate" how they thought the program was, because they're social work students. Just their own experiences and stuff, but I gave one my email if they have any questions. It was just fun to connect with people my own age for once (which is still an issue for me, I admit that going to a meeting where I'm the only 20-something one there kinda sucks)
