5 Feet of Fury

Humility: I haz itz!

Just sayin:

I’ll be setting up a Google Alert for “Paul Carr”…

I haven’t attended a single meeting—and yet I also haven’t had a drop of alcohol in almost 2½ years. By devising my own steps to sobriety, I’ve repaired relationships, gotten healthy, started a new career and set aside more character flaws than most people will ever have in a lifetime.

Two and a half years is an amazing accomplishment.

And sweet f*** all.

Almost everybody gets grandiose at one or two years:

Changes careers, goes on a fitness kick, meets their “soul mate,” concocts a grand unified theory of the universe.

Writes a book about how awesome they are now.

These books don’t usually get published.

And that’s a good thing.
