Old habits die hard

Hmm. Feeling rather tired, but not in that completely incapable of talking, fuzzy-headed kind of way

I hope you're not Russian in to cutting out on booze to please your teacher.

Why didn't you tell me you had a Russian teacher before? *Endless* jokes!

[captain_farrell]

Well...actually, just the one joke that I can repeat over and over again. But still!

[the_agent_m]

Yeah, yeah. You promised me lots of pianist jokes before, and where are they? Where? How am I supposed to keep my piano going with such a lack of incentive!

[captain_farrell]

Don't Russ me.

That sounds like me, I'm rather partial to a glass of wine of an evening too, and had a bit of a panice just after Christmas when I took the empties for recycling and realised how many there were! I decided to buy less and drink less in the flat, and have actually managed it without too much effort. I think this week was the second time I'd bought a bottle of wine since, in at least a couple of months. I think the trick is in not buying it - if it's there, I'll have a glass or so at night until it's gone, but if it's not there, I don't go looking for it.

Good for you!

And do you feel like a healthier and better person? Please say yes, or I'll have nothing to aim for. I suppose at the very least I'll be saving money.

I think I do need a bottle of wine in the house as part of my plan. I've been stumped in the house really wanting a drink before and it hasn't made me feel any better not having it. I'd just like to get to the point where I'm not drinking as a matter of routine.

I don't drink at home or buy chocolate and I look and feel like shit.

Hang on, I'm meant to be encouraging you aren't I...

D'argh! Don't say such things! :p Well, I'll give it a go, and it probably won't last long.
