Self-imposed beer drought

Well, I am now two weeks into my self-imposed beer fast. Actually I should be more specific and state that it's alcohol I've givin up. I should hasten to add that on December 17th, when our team at work go out, I will be back on it with some abandon.

Why am I doing it? Well, it really happened as a result of a particularly active fortnight around my birthday, when I was out almost every night. During that time, I forgot key phone conversations, and social appointments coming out of them. It seemed prudent to attempt a holiday from drink, for the time being.

I think it's also the first time that I've gone this long without a drink since I was .. er .. 18. You know, based on all we know about alcohol (from scholars etc), maybe it will be a good thing. Maybe I will sleep better, feel healthier, lose the small amount of fat I have. (Incidentally, none of these, in the first two weeks is true so far, but I'll stick with it.
