I haven’t been doing so well with this goal, though I have been more mindful of my meat consumption, particularly beef.

Well, shoot.
Last night I went to a small gathering and someone handed me her drink. I looked at her and asked, “What’s this?” It looked like Kool-Aid. “Sprite!” she answered. I thought it was that Cherry Sprite, so I took a sip. It was not Sprite. I’m pretty sure it was a vodka drink of some sort. I let her know that I had resolved to abstain from booze for the year and she had just ruined my year!! (I was playful, not terribly upset.)
Everyone says this doesn’t count because it is a willful resolution. Because I wasn’t choosing with full knowledge, it doesn’t count. Plus, I only had one sip.
Still, I should have known.
