When You Have Been Drinking...

[Sigmund]

Good Friday evening!

I'll go out on a limb here and say, there's a lot of stuff you shouldn't be doing When You Have Been Drinking. For example:

#1. Don't start a new thread on the SKMB.

#3. (I crack myself up!)

#4. Don't go shopping on Amazon.

What do you think you should not be doing When You Have Been Drinking?

Thank you for your time and patience.

Peace.

Donate $60 to the Bernie Sanders campaign, and only finding out you've done it after checking your online banking account the next day....

Not that I've done that

Go anywhere near a SuperSearch buck-a-song jukebox. Wind up broke the next day.

Go to the movies. I turn into a foul-mouthed Tom Servo, yelling at the screen, who keeps going out to smoke and eventually not going back. Still haven't finished V For Vendetta.

Don't call/text old lovers/flings.

Don't call/text old flames who didn't know they were flames.

Don't call/text anyone, anyone, ANYONE to give them a piece of your mind when they didn't need it before now.

Don't think you've got a good idea because you're in an altered state. You are, but you don't.

Drinking is sorta like praying....do it in your closet. Do not get online for the love of all that is holy. Do not phone while drunk or drive either. Do not get extra "friendly" with folks either....I hate drunks like that.

Don't think people would be interested in your witty writings in the snow with yellow ink.

I generally only drink on days with a 'Y' in them.

#1 I probably shouldn't be drinking...

And, like Sigmund, it begets an apathy for number two.

Don't cook!

Back in my softball playing days, we were playing in an all-day Saturday tournament. It was hot as hell (July or August) and when we got eliminated we went to the local bar to have a few beers. We had been in the sun all day long without eating much (and we all know how much more powerful beer is after a day in the sun). After we finished up there, i went home and I was starving. I had some leftover ziti in the refrigerator and I popped that in the microwave. While that was happening, I decided it would be nice to have some garlic toast to go with my nuked ziti. I fixed up some bread and stuck it in the toaster oven and put the oven on broil. It was going to take a few minutes for the toast to finish so I went out in the living room and sat down in front of the TV. Next thing I know, I was waking up to the horrid smell of toast that had been cooking for a few hours. I turned off the toaster oven and looked inside and had two pieces of toast the were about the size of postage stamps. That burnt toast smell lingered for days or weeks. Luckily, I didn't start a fire. After that, I've always had a microwave or sandwich only rule in that situation. That smell was really awful and it lasted for so long that I think the smell became psychological and I could still smell it long after it was gone.

I dunno, drinking 'in the closet' doesn't sound very healthy either. Pretty sad. I suggest a middle ground--go to a bar (just don't drive there, a'yuh).

A real bar, mind you. Not a restaurant that serves straight shots of hard liquor, then gets crappy when people get drunk. "This is a family establishment!" Really? So little Johnny can order a round a Cuervo for all the kids at his ten year B-Day party? Hrrmmm.

True story: there's a bar and grill inside a local mall that served my sister plenty of booze once (she wasn't driving, wasn't cutting up), then as soon as she went to the shopping area, some soulless swine called security on her and she got popped for public intox.

I've always struggled with the reasoned avoidance of acts while under the influence. On the one hand I have drank enough over the years to know "this too shall pass" and can still see the next day, or, after-effects of my actions, while still being horribly hobbled. On the other hand I agree with the old phrase "in vino veritas" and want to ignore all reason and dance and go wild just like St. Francis!

while still being horribly hobbled.

I am going to call off work with that excuse sometime.

Musta been one of those Ruby Tuesdays. Only mall drinking thing I've seen.
Give out happy flags. Birthday cakes.. Let me refill your glass you ordered once. K.

Do not ritual while drunk. Bad enough with a participant but havoc with a High Priest/ess. Though, admittedly, there can be some comic pay-off, it's just not good.

Have unprotected sex (from what I hear that is - don't look at me! - I think I forgot what that stuff was).
