May the Spirits Move You

So, my brother is staying with me, because he was kicked out of his house over a coke and drinking binge. That's the short version. It's going well, so far. My place is tiny, so the quarters are close. Ten years ago, we would have already had about ten known-down, drag outs. "So I guess this is growing up"...Did I just do that? We're going through similar shit right now, and it's pretty cool in a way. We've been through so much together, but were never really that close. I guess that's how most siblings are.
Tonight, I went to an AA meeting with him. If I were to be invited to a night out on the town, but really wasn't in the mood to drink the night away, I found the solution. Go to an AA meeting first. That'll make you wanna kick back a few. I really didn't know that I was going hear a bunch of alcoholics talking about Jesus. I really didn't. I could've gone to a regular church for that. "Hi. My name is Shaun, and I'm an alcoholic. I've been sober since 9/5/05."
I'm back on the wagon, though. Could someone toss be a drink?
