I have been doing a dry October, or OctSober. I looked it up, but I totally came up with the name by myself. Here are some things I have learned so far:
- I thought the hardest part would be out with people who were drinking. Actually, this hasn't been the case. The most difficult times have been at home and all I want is a beer. And I have beer in the fridge. This has been exceptionally difficult. At the bar, I can usually get by with club soda.
- Club soda is great. Like, how did I not know this before? Water? OK. Water with ice? Better than OK. Bubbly water with ice? And a freshly cut lime? Most excellent.
- I have gotten several blank looks when asking for a "club soda" of Australian bartenders, followed by "what's in a 'club soda'?" Apparently the drink is called "Soda water on ice. With a lime."
