Hey Dev, I don't post on here often, and just wanted to take a moment to commend you on your recent decisions to go sober. I myself have made a resolution to not drink or smoke or anything for the year. You were partly my inspiration to go and try and clean the palette so to speak. I'm a writer and a poet and the fact that you and your art seem to be completely (and maybe even more so) inspired without the use of drugs and alcohol have prompted me to go ahead and try it myself.
I was kind of a heavy drinker and spent my first night out last night without it. It was a particularly disconnecting experiance when everyone; all of my friends around me were getting drunk and I wasn't. It was almost like I realized the only thing I have in common with some of them is the need to get fucked up. It wasn't that it was difficult not to drink, just kind of wierd you know? Like something was missing. I'm sure in your situation it must seem even weirder, being in a business where so many people make it an ultimadum to imbibe and consume.
Anyway, I'm going to go through with it. There are many personal benefits for me in doing so. I'll just have to get used to the surrealism of it all haha. Just wanted to thank you for helping me make that decision.

O yea, and by the way, Ki and Addicted are awesome!!!

Good on ya!
