Today was a lot of fun, in a somewhat bizarre way, as many of you whom I caught at 80s Nite know....But today also marks a surprising milestone of sorts for myself, which many of you will not believe--hell, I don't even know if I believe it yet!--but is shockingly true:

I can't drink anymore.

Period.

First...it was: I can't drink like a fucking Slivowicz-crazed Serbian death camp guard anymore. No more drinking until I'm blind anymore.

Then, it was: OK, I just can't drink a LOT every couple of days. So I just spaced out the drunken binges by several weeks and held myself back. For the most part.

Then: Shit, I can't really drink hard liquor anymore. It just makes my stomach feel horrible. Best just to stick with beer. At least beer is sort of nutritious! A tequila sunrise now and again can't hurt, but....

And then: Hell...even when I drink a stinking Yuengling my stomach feels like the devil's punching bag. Best to just have one or two every weekend.

Now...after having drunk just one Smirnoff Ice thingee tonight, and taken a few sips from another, I thought I was going to chunder. That's one of the reasons I left 80s Nite and went home so early. Yeah, I was sweaty as fuck and hot and tired, and I need to get up for a dr's appointment tomorrow (routine checkup, but still)...but I was also feeling kind of green around the gills. You know. Like I was getting...THE ICK.

The drive home was awful: I couldn't drive too fast because swinging back and forth made me nauseous, even with a few Dramamine in me. From 1.25 Smirnoff Ices. This is the writing on the wall, people. If I can't even guzzle a sissy drink like that without getting ill as hell, then it's time for Pegritz to hang up his drinking hat. For good this time.

I've hung it up a LOT lately....Much more than I have in the past 5 years, I'll tell you that. But I just can't deal with how bad Das Booze wrecks my stomach anymore.

*Le sigh*

Don't know how long it's going to last, but I miss my old boy Jose already. :(

One of the first things I'm getting when I go transhuman (that is, at least Human 1.5--2.0 would be better) is a cast iron stomach!

I don't know if Smirnoff Ices are the best indicator that you shouldn't drink anymore...those things are generally quick tickets to heartburn for me.

You'll be better off for it anyway. I know I'm personally so chock full of narcotics almost all the time that I've no need for booze. Maybe you can be like me!

Hey dude. If we're still on for tonight, I won't be home till a bit before 6pm. I need to run into town for a bit after work to take the pig to the vet. But I'll be back home before 6 pm for sure. So if you want to come get me at 6 that's fine. Just let me know ok?
