Just wanted to say

Since she's publicly acknowledged it on her blog, I will here...

I just wanted to say that I'm really proud of my friend Emily. She's had a problem with drinking (don't we all love when genetics meet circumstance?) and has decided to quit altogether. I've known a lot of people who have problems with alcohol, or addiction in general, and it's a really brave thing to step up to the plate and admit you need to do it for yourself and your friends.

She's doing her own rewards program in the form of her other, much more tolerable/physically healthier addiction, and I'm starting one from my side.

May 8 will be three weeks, 21 days, and when she makes it there we will go for the Nutella and Organic Banana smoothies at Nectar in Oakhurst! I'm going to figure out other yummy, culinary experiments to fill out every other three week (or so, depending on 'dem dollaz) interval.

I love you, Emmy!
