October--a very good month

I really enjoyed "Not Today, Thanks" in the October issue. I have often used these ways of turning down a drink at a social function, and had fun at the same time. The people who give these affairs couldn't care less what you have in your glass, just as long as there is something in it. I feel that you are a better person for it, because you have maintained your sobriety and built up a certain level of tolerance during a drinking situation. There will always be drinkers--we can't change that, just accept it.
