Change to Social Life

[CLN.BK 165]

Prior to my surgery, my friends and I bought tickets to a booze cruise on the Hudson River for this Saturday night. I won't be able to partake in the open bar anymore which I am a little disappointed about.

I'm worried about my friends asking questions about why I'm not drinking. No one knows I've had the surgery, nor do I want them to know. My go-to drink has always been a vodka tonic with extra lime. I will instead order a Water with lime, so hopefully no one will realize that I'm not drinking. Don't get the wrong idea about my friends... they won't care whether I drink or not. They're awesome. BUT, they will have questions: Am I sick, do I need to go home, every hour asking if I'm feeling okay. I just want to enjoy the night without having to blatantly lie to their faces.

Although I'm disappointed that I won't be able to partake like I have in the past, I'm keeping my eye on my longterm future rather than just this weekend.

Just ask the bartender to put it in the same glasses the cocktails are in. I doubt anyone will notice!
