First of all, I understood my drinking went over the limit during the summer and I was heading towards alcohol dependency. So I decided I wouldn't be drinking any alcohol at home after during September after the 1st (my problem has been drinking alone, I rarely attend any social occasions where drinking is appropriate) until the end of the month. It has worked quite well and I have been really questioning whether I have real need to drink myself senseless once or twice a week. I haven't been drinking alone for almost three weeks (and no, I haven't been going to bars, it's expensive and I hate to converse with people I don't know).
But that's not what this thread's for. I was a volunteer roadie at an event week for young entreprenuers, mostly because couple of my friends were organising it and I was invited for tonight's afterparty (free beer yay). I also ended up following up people to couple of bars, showing up my moves on the dancefloor (my hips don't lie, but I'm hardly an attractive man so girls usually avoid me) and singing Schism by Tool on karaoke (well, how often you get the chance?, also one guy from the entourage joined up on the stage despite clearly not knowing the song
). And I grabbed two beers from the party and I'll be drinking them now.
But really, I've been thinking about my drinking habits during this month. I feel I can't drink and study at the same time, because my hangovers usually render me useless for almost a whole day. I feel it's better to pretty much stay sober, because I can't really limit my drinking to one or two beers.
