Feeling this way makes me want to just sit and drink. I used to drink a lot...a lot. Now? Not so much. I think I had a beer last week or maybe the week before; I can't remember. I was going to have one last night, but I was just too grrrr to even get my arse up and go to the refrigerator to get one. (Don't worry folks, I'm not despondent...just a little frustrated.)
So, today, during my aimless wanderings on the internet, to snap myself out of my general state of grrrr, I happened upon a humorous site devoted to the art of drunkenness: Modern Drunkard Magazine. I haven't finished looking through the site, but there are articles, cartoons, drinks, poems, and other stuff. You can go look at it for yourself. I think some of you might find the humor in it. I found a list that gave me a chuckle. Here are a few of the entries. You can add to the list HERE.
You know you are a drunkard when. . .
- You feel incredibly sexy despite the vomit stain down the front of your shirt.
- After eight drinks your “hugs” bear an uncanny resemblance to UFC take-downs.
- You failed CPR class because your breath set the dummy on fire.
- You called the cops on yourself but refused to testify because you “didn’t want to get involved."
- You use spearmint schnapps for mouthwash because it eliminates that whole spitting hassle.
- You’re seriously considering learning how to play the bagpipes because, hey—nobody gets more free drinks than bagpipers.
- You’ve worn a kilt to ladies night in hopes of beating the system on a technicality.
- When the guy at the door yelled, “Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms,” you assumed it was someone bringing more supplies.
- You inform the arresting officer that gravity is the only law you feel compelled to obey.
- Crying in your beer increases its alcohol content.

My enthusiasm for drinking started to wane when I found that while my age was linear, my recovery time was exponential. Modulating intake seemed so minor compared to unregulated misery.
Yeah, I try to avoid misery, myself.
How about if you ask the bartender to let you keep the bottle of whiskey that you kicked that night as a souveneir? Does that make you a drunkard? How about if you took a deck of cards, layed them out on a table and played the "memory game" for drinks? If either of those apply, count me as a drunkard I guess!
The only reason I drink is to see double.

Vinnie:
1. Yup.
2. Why do you need games to drink? Just drink. ;P I was always good at making others drink when I played quarters.
Skul:
HA! Hopefully you are in a comfy recliner when that happens. :)
I don't drink any more....
.... I don't drink any less either.
Then, Rodney, you are a well-balanced drinker; well, until you stand up I suppose.
