Here’s a confession: Today is Day 10 of my new sobriety. I believe it is the longest I’ve gone without a drink since I was 16. Yesterday, the sewer line at my house collapsed. Monday, Trump was inaugurated. I have not touched a drop. Baby steps, but steps all the same 💙

This story began in my notes app with a concrete uterus. I figured that was too heavy for my main character. Thank you Allison Field Bell and The Rumpus for publishing this “lighter” version.
