Thought meat wouldn't taste good without Tusker. Tried it sober. WRONG. It tastes EVEN BETTER. My taste buds are throwing a party in my mouth.

High me had blank sleep — no dreams, just blackout. Month sober? Dreams wilder than Nollywood. Flying over Nairobi, arguing with my Form 2 teacher, winning lottery. Wake up entertained. Best free stre...

Day 37: I’m irritated by air. Literally air. I almost slipped, but I paused and remembered why I started. I drank water like it was medicine and honestly… it kind of is. I’m posting here instead of is...

I spent 40 minutes last night just... watching the microwave. But here's the kicker: I wasn't high, so I actually realized it wasn't plugged in after 30 seconds. In the past, I would have waited until...

Quit the doom-scrolling and the 4am rabbit holes about "how to build a hut in the woods." My phone is confused. It keeps sending me notifications like "Are you dead?" No, Siri, I’m just looking at act...

At the office party, I didn’t want to explain my sobriety, so I told everyone I was a "Water Sommelier." I spent 20 minutes describing the "earthy notes" and "aggressive bubbles" of a bottle of Kering...

I took a shot (very small) after a funeral today. I did go home immediately and now watching the football instead of the usual "after-burial" alcoholism. Tough but we move!
