I always thought GT must be permanently out of it. Dunno why.

For once I am being entirely serious.

She's a cutie, too.

But I think she is too smart for me. She knows about science and math and stuff. All I can do is write.
Well, I know I've made this offer before, but: We live awfully close to each other and I'd be more than happy to go boozing together sometime! SXSW is coming up again.

And I definitely plan on going.

I thought you were moving, though?

look at you guys....

i mean if i was drunk posting from school at whenever the hell that was, like 1 in the afternoon, i would be a far cooler person than i actually am.

I might not always be in control of my facutlies, but there are a lot of ways to not be in control of them....alchy is just a fun way to get there.

Don't get the wrong idea and think that I'm trying to tell you how to live your life, it's just that it seems a lot of people practically rely on alcohol with the copious amounts that some have mentioned that they drink. Not to mention getting drunk just for the sake of it. So why the apparent dependency?

Character flaws, perhaps? I rarely drink outside of social events and even then I don't aim to get sloshed. Part of that may be because I'm pickier about what I drink than what I eat (I'm a Foodaholic

).

I don't drink much and when I do I don't aim to get sloshed either I become the striper of the party

Its good sometimes just to get out of your head, some people like to do it with booze others with drugs, meditation or whatever. As in most things the key is a degree of control,when it starts to rule your life then you have problems.

Well.. You people should know what I'm like after I drink a bit..

But honestly, I rarely drink. In the holidays I drank possibly up to 5 times. That's not a lot in a time frame of 7 weeks.

I think there was one VERY good drunk post by you. I believe you ranted on dead cats in bins and you how you tipped the bins over. And you called skoffin a cow I think. That was one good drunk post

Skittles! · Post by **Skittles!** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 4:13 am

Yahhh.. I started patting the plastic bags as well because I closed the lid and there was heaps of air in the plastic bags

Then it turned into dead cats and I kicked the bin over.

That night was fun

use to drink about 6/7 nights a week. now Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday afternoon. after a long hard week in work(especially on 2-10) i want to come home and have few bottles of Rose wine with my wife.

if you don't drink now or when you get older that is fair enough and i understand you are not trying to talk down to us, but you must realise about certain situations. my wife's mum does not mind my kids and my mum will now and again(this Friday

). so we don't go out to often, so drinking at home is pretty much the best we can do regularly.

Oh, I practically only drink at home, or in small groups at other people's homes. I'll go to a bar about once every two weeks, and to monster parties about 1.5 times per month. Mostly it's sitting on the couch with my partner and kitties, or at a friend's house chatting, watching Star Trek, or playing games.

Exactly... Without the Star Trek, though.

Star Trek's alright. Especially with a cool beer at hand.
