Lol I can drink a ton of beer though. My hubby and I can go out for hours and hours and drink at least 10 beers or more and most times I am not drunk. I think its because we always make sure to eat while drinking. I have to say I love the feeling of a good buzz. Its the best but then again I come from Pittsburgh which is a drinking town and everybody here drinks -ha!
I have cut back though and try to only go out 1 maybe 2 times a week now. I am surprised at 33 that I hardly ever get hangovers. Alcohol just makes me tired that is all.

For me, beer and liquor are completely different buzzes. Honestly, I like the beer buzz better. It makes me fuzzier, and more confused!

All of my friends drink, and yeah, it's one of my favorite pastimes. BUT, I don't get mean, I don't cry, I have a GOOD time.

I know people who are my age (15) that smoke pot and drink a lot. They are basically high all the time.

When they ask me have I ever gotten high or drunk, I just tell them that happens when I listen to the Doors. Seriously their work is hypnotic. - I actually 'tripped' once from listening to their 1967 album.

The Ghost Song is seriously trippy stuff!

Well now I feel like a raging alcoholic..!

I woke up at 7am the other morning not knowing how I ended up back in my bed, with badly bruised knees and a hangover fresh from hell. I then went to work, selling food. During the day I got flashbacks of sitting on a street corner in the snow alone, laughing at myself. The last thing I remember is lying in bed on the phone to my boyfriend saying 'half past four, quarter to five.'
I still don't know how I got home that night.

I'm going out again tomorrow..

One listen to The Crystal Ship, I'm out of it.
Doing semi-Stevie twirls and moving my arms all over the place.

No to the tree climbing. My friends say I'm pretty much always the same. I am perhaps a little more introverted, until I've had a few. Not a big difference, though...

You're missing alot on the climbing Trees front. The one I climbed in London in the small Park was impressively tall and I got a great view of the City from it. I'm lucky I'm the kind of drunk who remembers what I did in some ways. In some ways I suppose I'm cursed too because I'll forever kick myself for asking a homeless guy where the hotel was. I was alone in the park and, under any other circumstance I would have walked away because I definitely wasn't safe. Oh well. I was neither stabbed, raped or murdered so I did okay.

Not at all. Quite the contrary. And I don't appreciate your implication, that I am.
You know, I'm not in trouble here. I do however, sense the absence of someone. Someone who overstepped the boundaries. I suggest that you don't do the same thing.
Have a great night.

I am afraid of heights, even when buzzed. In high school, we used to jump a fence, and climb a high, DANGEROUS fire tower, in a State Park. My friends loved it. I hated it, but did it anyway, because I don't let phobias stand in my way, of doing anything. But I certainly didn't enjoy it...my fear grew exponentially with each step(not that I let them see, though).

Ah. That's understandable then, and I'm sorry you're missing out. But it's great that you don't let your phobias run your life as people tend to. For years I was afraid to strike up conversations with people and actually be myself around them. But after a lot of self programming I pushed through the wall and forced myself to put myself in social situations. I may never be a social butterfly or go clubbing like my friends, but I can talk to people openly where I couldn't before. So I'm proud of that. Heights were never something that bothered me really. I always figured that if I ever fell, I'd go into shock before I hit the ground and thus wouldn't feel it (how high does the drop have to be before the impact causes liquidation?). It's funny what you think of to talk yourself out of your fears lol. I was always the person who would go further towards the cliff's edge than anybody else, just to see what it felt like. I've always been far too curious for my own good.
