I'm not an alcoholic. I'm a drunk. Alcoholics go to meetings.
Yeah, I'm sure that has been done somewhere in the last 10 pages. And if it hasn't someone dropped the ball.
I'm more of a social drinker. But I do it when I want and on my terms. When I go out with friends, I'm willing to be the DD (designated driver), though I'll have a few beers and/or shots while we're out. And when at home, I tend to make some drinks.
So, I drink, but I like to think I keep a good balance and maintain control over it rather than the other way around. Keep in mind, that at 26 years old, I've only gotten so drunk I vomited maybe 3 times in my whole life. And I only drink with company. Sometimes not even then, if I don't feel like it.
