Karen,
Just last night at the gym...I over heard this guy BRAGGING about his previous night's bender...He said to this guy that looked like he belonged on the cover of a magazine for weight lifters, "Man, I didn't get out of bed until 5(meaning 5 pm). I gotta stop doing this". This body builder guy said, "You would think so"...and walked away. It was funny.

Of all people to brag about your drinking to....someone that prolly watches every iota that goes into his body....sheesh.

I'm still confused as to what you meant by that. Please fill me in.

My fav drink would have to be Midori illusion shakers :) but at $15 a shaker i dont have them too often.

As for drinking in general, i think it is fine in moderation and if you can handle it.
but having said that...

A guy one of my friends used to go out with and his friend drove from his house to the house that we had our new years party at the other night (an 1 hour drive) completly drunk (he realy was off his bald brainless head) he killed 1 rabbit on the way over and just missed a dog, and it is a wonder they did not kill themselves :mad: i could not belive it :( bloody idiot.


lol as for Will and Grace I LOVE THAT SHOW i want my own lil Just Jack :D and Karen is too funny.

I have to say it, I like some alcoholic beverages, but I learned the hard way to limit my drinking.

The last time I drank to much Smirnoff, it is just so good, I kept drinking and finally I was what you would call "worshiping the porcelain bowl". I was so sick, I had to crawl to bed that night!

Now I limit my drinks, so I don't have to hug the bowl!

I'm up at 4am, bored, so I have to tell a story. It'll make you appreciate the fact that you at least made it to the toilet! I met up with a group of friends at Applebees. Aside from my husband, all these friends were longtime internet friends. So although we knew eachother well, this was only our second time hanging out in person. Well, the birthday girl's bf dumped her right beforehand. So we were waiting for about 4 hours for her to show up at Applebees. (She had to shower again after crying a bunch.) Well, we didn't want to eat without her. I hadn't eaten all day. So what better thing to do while we wait for 4 hours? Drink double margaritas. By the time my food came, I was so full on alcohol that I didn't eat.

So, we go to a nightclub. I must say...I had on stilletto heels and never fell. lol. Anyways, out of the blue I insisted on leaving. No one knew why and they were trying to talk me into staying. I'd seemed sober to them...but the alcohol had just hit me all at once....Like a freight train.

So, we go out to the truck. (Without my purse :rolleyes: ) And everyone is standing there talking to me through the truck window. Trying to figure out why I want to leave so fast. (I was still acting sober at this point.)

No cue, or anything....I hurled on all of them! It was so horrible. I was so embarrassed the next day. I'll never ever ever drink like that again. Since then, we've all become the best of friends. I like to tease Wendy (the one that caught most of the puke) that it was her initiation. -Now I know she's a true friend. ;)

(Johanna's variation on a Dear John letter):
Dear Tonya,
After throwing up on ME, please consider our friendship OVER!
Sincerely,
Your former friend, Johanna

:D

Chris and I smuggled Rumplemints into a movie once. He had told me about how he and an old girlfriend used to take shooters etc. Well, of course I couldn't be outdone. So I played along. and played. and played. and played.
That night, I hurled on his living room floor several times- remembering none of it the next morning.
Poor guy had to not only clean up the mess, but give me a bath and get me to bed. He was a really good sport about it. He still loves me to this day, but no longer dares me to do shooters!!! I think he deserved it for comparing me to another woman. I am like NO OTHER WOMAN. Now he knows that:cool: :D ;)

:p

I dont drink anything with alcohol I wont even drink wine both my mom and dad have tried to convince me to have some win on special occasions I refused lol nothing to do with the alcohol thing has everything to do with that I am EXTREMLY picky and something does not look or smell good to me, I aint gonna have any :p

Cali- you are smart to avoid alcohol. It is just an organic solvent, a byproduct of things rotting. Your body has no need of it, but knows how to convert it to sugars, since people have been eating rotten stuff for a long time.

One funny story I think of involves a friend who is a diabetic chemist. He can't drink, and refers to alcohol as "yeast poop."

People like the warm feeling as alcohol penetrates all the cell walls throughout their bodies. The feeling of being "out of control" as it affects your brain is pleasant to some, but if you drink too much you may temporarily get a bit disorganized.

That said, there are many drinks which taste good! My favorite right now is a tall glass of orange juice with a shot of apricot brandy mixed in. Add a squirt of lemon juice and they call it a Sourball.

Sweet drinks like Pina Coladas and Eggnog with a bit of rum and nutmeg are tasty, too!

You're right, mahayana. There's a reason for the feeling wierd and hangovers. It's poison.

Interesting thing I learned:
People tend to get "crazier" with tequila than with other alcohols because it is a stimulant, whereas other alcohols are depressants.

Beer. REAL beer, not crappy big american brewery kinds. We've just started brewing our own:)
