Week 31 report is a good one because I had a great fishing trip and did not drink nearly as much as I thought would happen. I have to admit is was not all because of the NAL or even will power but because I was sea sick part of the time I am sure I looked as green as that face. We went south of key west around 30 miles and the fishing was great. Even though it was rough 4-6 feet waves the first two days we caught a lot of snapper and several grouper.

But it was a two night - three day trip and I had less than 7 drinks each day where in the past the number of units would have been in the 20s each day because of the rum drinks at night. Leaving the rum home helped a lot -but sorta weird without the Capt aboard. NO time to check out other posts tonight because I have a lot of fish to clean! Catch up tomorrow I hope.

Numbers for the week were 0,0,6,6,5,6 and 6 for a total of 29 and 2 AF days.

Wonderful news Reboot - sorry about the seasick though - I suffer with the same so empathise! But great news re the AL - laughed at you talking about leaving the Capt. at home when you were on a boat though - did your friends ask why there was no Capt. for you ?

Hugs, Maggie x

Ah, so the Captain didn't get to make you his cabin boy this time around, eh? So much the better!

Wellllll, if the Captain tries to get his revenge, give him a sock in the neck from me! POW! (THUD) "Swashbuckle that, beyatch!"

Funny Joe! The Capt. has certainly had his way with me plenty of times before

Maggie - everyone was so queasy and the boat was rocking so much that no one was even able to hold onto a beer without spilling the majority of it. 5 of 6 of us were sick for at least a day and one poor sole never was able to fish for more than ten minutes during the trip. I know it sounds like a terrible trip but we had a great time and it was very productive with lots of laughs amongst friends and plenty of fish biting.

Maggie, by the Capt I think he meant Captain Morgan rum, not sure if you thought he meant an actual captain of the ship. LOL

Good for you reboot. In your honor last night after the earlier conversation on your thread I deliberately chose wine instead of hard liquor. Kept to a respectable 2 US units.

Nal on!!

TOO funny Newlife - OF COURSE I knew that he meant Capt Morgan Rum - I know I can be a tad slow at times but I am not quite that bad - hahahaha

hugs, Maggie x

A three day trip is better then a three hour tour, a three hour tour...

are you kidding? with Mary Ann around?

LOL Zontar ......

Week 32 - short and simple - more of the same. Some really good days and a couple of bad days. None that were crazy compared to past. total 25 with 1 af day. 2,2,1,0,10,2 and 8. 10 day was once again a long boating day, 8 day was a night of drinking wine with wife. Still extremely happy that my drinking has decreased so much so I am not sweating the little bump ups. Want to spend some time reading and responding tonight so keeping simple.
