The Filter

This is the third and final night of my "fast" from drink. I am staring once again at coffee in the evening instead of wine, beer or scotch - and I am reflecting - as I like to do.

Now - I had more energy today and didn't feel rough. I slept well last night. But I am drowsy now. It doesn't really compute since alcohol is a depressant and if I for instance had a nice little glass of the California Pinot Noir nestled in my basement - "No! Don't do it John!" - I just know that it would pick me up. And more than that the beautiful wine would raise up the drink in me and send me to a dreamland...

But I won't do it. I'll just replace the filter and drink my coffe and wait patiently for after work tomorrow at which point I will go to my favourite pub which pours the best Guiness in Canada - and I will drink.

The question is - will that Guiness taste better than ever and will all of this "fasting" have been worth it?
