I stopped drinking in 2022.

Sometimes I still have the practices of a person who came of age with booze.

I brought some NA beer and other NA drinks to festive things. The NA beer is fine, but otherwise time has really weaned me off the rituals of social alcohol and NA replacements.

It’s hard to find non-alcohol centered places where I live now (in SF). Even though drinking culture is way more intense in Singapore, there were at least plenty of late night outdoor food places where you can sit and drink a Milo or iced lime water while your friends drink beer. No such luck here.
