Troubled Sleep
Today is my AA birthday and I'm recuperating at home from surgery. This has given me a lot of time to reflect on how I got here and what it took to stay here. I didn't want to get sober. I didn't even want to stop drinking but a counselor suggested it when I went to him after I witnessed a murder. That murder could have taken place anywhere in the city since none of the parties involved were from this neighborhood. While the police were in my house interviewing me and convincing me that I should testify since I was the sole witness, all I could think about was how much I wanted a drink. They sat outside my house for days on end watching and waiting for trouble. I sat inside and drank.
