Thank god for ice cream and MST3K! [View all]

I've been clean for around a year and a half. But lately, weekend evenings have been tough. I start feeling sorry for myself and say, "Screw it, I'm going to go to bed early." But these past couple weekends, I've ended up in bed early with a bowl of ice cream and my laptop. I start watching Mystery Science Theater 3000, which always puts me in a good mood. Before I know it, it's 11 o'clock or so--my usual bedtime!

They say it gets easier, which for the most part it has been. But weekends have been a bit harder lately. Maybe it's the self isolation thing. I don't know. But I'll get through it! Thanks for listening to my bellyaching!
