Former Baywatch star David Hasselhoff has returned home after being hospitalized for a relapse from sobriety. The 55-year-old, who is currently embroiled in a custody battle with ex-wife Pamela Bach, considers himself fortunate to have been hospitalized before slipping back into alcoholism.

He says, "It's one of those things, it's one day at a time. I was doing great, and it just happened, and it took me 24 hours, and I just said, 'You know what? Wrong, wrong, wrong!' The little brain says that it's okay, but it's not okay, and that's what it's all about."

He needs to lay off the booze and fried chicken. And stay off the floor!
