Isn't it amazing that you can sit and watch people drink, still have a great time, and not feel like you are missing out on anything? As you mentioned, my alcoholic mind wants me to take that first drink, because it know that if it gets one in me one is never, ever enough.
We had a weekend party, and I have a SIL how is an alcoholic and as the party progressed she got more and more demanding. She actually got upset because I hadn't gotten around to downloading two songs to play. I realized that she tries to control everything and everybody around her because she has no control over her own life. I thank God I have the serenity now to simply let that slide and go on having a good time..
