My daughter is getting married tonight! [View all]

And I have my plans in place to avoid drinking. I feel pretty good about it. Thank SMART for giving me the tools to deal with these kinds of situations. The only thing I'm nervous about is giving the FOTB speech. Don't know if I can deliver it without puddling up.
