Call me lame but alcohol really doesn't appeal to me, maybe if I were sh!t faced it would make it easier to fall asleep?

No alcohol for me. I let all the others poison themselves while I and my braincells stay healthy ;)

You never said if they puked on any carpet/furniture? If so that would be totally gross and hard to get the stains/smell out of the fabric!

They did worse... on the bed! And there was a pillow with no pillow case. So I had to wash the entire pillow. Then there was the mattress. Some how, while the drunkards were sleeping on the bed, the sheets got pulled off the mattress, so when one of them puked, he puked onto the mattress a little and some of the stuff that landed on the sheet went through to the mattress. Fortunately, another sober person took care of that. Washed it up, and flipped the entire mattress over, hope the owner of that bed doesn't notices...

I stayed home with the family watched some movies and then formatted and installed Windows 2000 on my computer.

I have a glass of red wine almost every day with dinner. I had two glasses over a 5 hour period last night, so I wasn't dry, but I was plenty sober.

Chasing a buzz is never a good idea. The buzz is destined to catch up with you and bite you on the culo, so if you drink do it lightly!

i haven't had a drink in over 5 years... last drink i had made me so sick to my stomach that i was puking for 3 straight days..

That's enough to convince me not to drink anymore.

And i don't smoke.... got enough bad vices..

I had two beers in three hours time. That's "sober" for me compared to yesteryears.

I had a couple beers and jello shots earlier in the night, but stopped drinking because I needed to drive home later.. Oh, and a champaigne toast at midnight.

Much better than last year when I was absolutely hammered. I have no idea how much a drank, but the walk home from the bar is a blur. I do remember drinking a little MD 20/20 though.. waking up the next day HURT.

Yes, very sober. If I hadn't quit drinking 8.5 years ago, I'd be dead right now. Kinda hard to post at OT when you're dead.......:p -kd5-

I don't drink. My g/f and I found another form of entertainment to occupy our time. That is all I will divulge.
