 I don't think this blog needs to be updated daily. I have the God Box which is updated every day. So if you don't see regular updates here it isnt because I forgot.

On April 2, 1998, I moved out of the transition house where I was living and attempted to re-integrate back into society. I think I was successful.

I had something on my mind during the night so I ended up waking up early. My word for the day was about the practice of self-restraint and not acting or speaking hastily or rashly which is what I was thinking of doing. Go figure.

One of my sponcees had asked if I wanted to accompany him to the early risers meeting. I am an early riser today so thats what I'll do today.

 Today is April 1. April Fools day. It's also the day Nancy and I stopped smoking, 9 years ago. It's not something I miss. Oh sometimes I think I miss it but then I ask myself what do you miss? The cyanide? the formaldehyde, the carbon monoxide? the paint thinner? the pieces of hair I used to find in tobacco, the yellow fingers? smelling like an ashtray all the time? And then I realize that I don't miss it.

March came in like a lion, and seems to be going out like a lamb. Suits me just fine. I'm speaking at a birthday meeting tonight so that might be a good reason to wear a buttoned shirt.

Both my morning and my afternoon sessions canceled so that will give me more time to bake cookies.

 Monday morning. Having a cup of coffee and listening to Benny Goodman, an album from 1937. I decided to play one album for each year from the last 100 years.
