That's what I say to myself every time I drink and get sick/hungover. Then practicality rears its head--I don't have friends (in the same time zone) who smoke and don't have, and never did have a supplier. A.R.G.
My friend Emma smokes, as does my roommate's mom. I've never tried pot before, but drinking's gotta go.
What's not your thing - exercise or running?
Running - practicality rears its head It's easier to start running with someone else for motivation, and I don't know who I can drag along with me.
I also have to get over the fact that other people are going to see me in spandex, fat giggling everywhere. Hope that doesn't conjure a mental image that makes you want to claw your eyes out.
Thanks :-) Weekends automatically win for being weekends.
I *meant* running, but I don't exercise much...I *would*, but the only things I like to do require other people--like playing football or volleyball or tennis or something. If I'm alone I end up doing "sitting" activities.
I always find it SO weird when people's *parents* smoke pot. The best I ever had was given to the guy by his *dad*...wtf? :D But yeah, if/when you try it, you must post the results.
And I thought I was the only one talented enough to type well when drunk. I guess I need to come up with a new party trick now...
Alcohol is good as long as you know your limits, pace yourself, and know how to treat a hangover. I usually stick to pre-mixed drinks (beer, wine, etc.) when I'm drinking a lot, because I have this tendency to mix stronger drinks when I'm already drunk, which leads me to Evil Hangovers of Doom. Drink a lot of water before you go to bed (too late for that now, I guess) and eat carbs the next morning. Rehydrate before you touch coffee, too, or the headache will just get worse.
With all the stress I'm dealing with right now, I decided to go out and treat myself to a case of my favorite beer. The way I drink, it will probably last me at least six weeks, but it was still a splurge.
I hate running, but I definitely think it's good stress relief to work out somehow. I joined a new gym last month and have been lazy and have barely gone, but I'm going to try to get back into it this week.
"And I thought I was the only one talented enough to type well when drunk. I guess I need to come up with a new party trick now..." :-D I still say it's awesome, though maybe not so unique. It was no easy feat.
Thankfully, I haven't had a hangover yet. I just usually end up sleeping v. heavily and having my back kill me in the morning.
You're right. I do need to figure out where my limit is.
I'm not anywhere near being a beer connoisseur so I'm always interested in what other people like drinking, if you feel like divulging what you like imbibing.
I like being drunk better than being sober for the social disinhibition, which is not awesome to admit. It's just a lot easier to talk to people while inebriated.
Drunken bowling was pretty fun. Wonder what I'm like sober.
You wrote with the accustomed brillance. Awww... *blushes* I'm afraid the spell-checker deserves a lot of credit. Being pithy and using tiny sentences helps with the appearance of sobriety, I guess.
My friend RJ and I once met a girl who’d gone out drinking the night before with some of her friends. She got separated from them at some point and woke up the next morning under a car, covered with bruises.
Even if it’s not disastrous like this, the loss of control that accompanies drinking be disconcerting. Maybe that’s what you don’t like about it? Or maybe the effect of social lubrication isn't large enough for you that it outweighs feeling crappy (physically or not) the next day.
I get crazy and act the fool when I haven’t slept in a few days. One of the worst feelings is waking up not knowing what I’d been doing or saying to people before I passed out. I haven’t managed to do something similar drinking, but it’s not hard to cross that line.

Go, running! Not my thing, but exercise = good.
Feel better. Maybe your weekend will be good...

I need to run more, too. And bowl.
I don't particularly like the feeling of being drunk. I wonder why?

I woke up in the back of a pickup truck once with no idea of how I'd gotten there. And I wasn't alone.
Shitty weeks deserve drinking. I think I might have a bit tonight myself.
