What's new

I’m never drinking again. Never.

44 this summer. I honestly rarely drink. I drank 6-7 beers (Southern Tier, Dogfish Head and Leinenkugel) Friday night and then the Sangria the other night.

Other than that, I really rarely drink unless I go out with some friends after work on a Friday. I’ll do 4-6 beers there. And wine when the wifey and I go out to dinner.

Never mind. Haha

Why did I think you were younger?
 
Maybe you have got bad genes for drinking?

I have never really blacked out. Sometimes some details are fuzzy but I can usually piece things together. Every now and then there is a detail or two from the evening I dont remember. Although sometimes they are claims from someone else who was drinking with me so they might not be the most reliable source of memory either. I think I do some pretty heavy drinking now and then.
99% of the time, when i am drinking - no problems. A la 3 bottles of white wine or prosecco (+ water) between 19:00-03:00 have not caused any visible drunk symptoms according to my wife :-). White wine will make me only tired in general. However, experience has taught me, that it is not wise to mix certain type of booze and i have tried to pass that knowledge to the youngsters. A la 11 year old son of friend asked about the effects of beer etc. And i told him, that when you are thirsty (i.e body is in bad shape liquid wise) and only option is can of light beer or motor oil :-) then one beer does not do any short or long term harm. And told him to be careful when friends at the age of 14-16 suggest him to try different kinds of booze. I think the adults should teach the kids more about (because sooner or later they anyway try some alcohol) what are in general the results when drinking beer, wine, vodka, rum, tequila etc. And what not do i.e accept drinks which are mixed by someone else etc etc.
