Web Exclusive: Drinking Dreams

I recently had a "drinking dream." After almost twenty-five years of continued sobriety, one of those dreams entered my sleeping mind. A "drinking dream," to those who are recovering from alcoholism, is having a drinking experience in a dream. The frequency of such dreams varies with each individual. For me, it has been sporadic—sometimes years apart and sometimes close to each other. My last one, a few days ago, was after a break of more than a year.
