Today was my Duffy, something I've not been looking forward to. For an hour or so before my Duffy my stomach was fairly tight in anticipation of what was to come.
I did get a happy surprise in the Duffy room, not anything major but it was welcome nonetheless. Instead of 20 drinks as I had heard I would be doing the recap Duffys are only 15 drinks.
Not that getting 15 drinks down was easy. The drinks were beer, vodka and tequila, and they were yucky. I did my puking as I went and finally returned to my room when finished to puke more, meditate on the experience and recover.
I also got my read-back from yesterday's rehabilitation interview. No surprises in any of my answers, and I reported 8 as my aversion level. I think I'm reluctant to say I have a 10 out of 10 for my physical aversion to alcohol, while my desire not to drink is strong I don't get nauseous when I see or smell alcohol like some people do. For me it just doesn't register as something I'm interested in. The alcohol aisle at the store has become one of those aisles that just happens to hold no products I'm interested in, like the book aisle or the international foods aisle, or the bulk candy aisle... You get the idea.
I will go back to Schick in two months for my 90-day recap, one more Sleepy and the final Duffy. I'm glad I have some time before it all happens again. :-)
