I would make a lousy drunk as I get sick and not happy. Hubby and I occasionally share a beer. Once in a while a half glass of wine. On a rare occasion he’ll make himself a martini glass of gin with a few olives. But yes, there are times when I wish I could indulge and party happily.
So the truth is that "She Who Seeks" does not seek pubs or bars or the alcohol sections in supermarkets? That's obviously okay because alcohol has caused so many bad issues for humans from health to behaviour.
@ Yorkshire Pudding -- That's right. If I have one drink per year, that's a lot for me. And that one drink is usually an eggnog 'n rum at Christmas, or maybe an occasional Black Russian or Moscow Mule if I'm on holiday somewhere. I gave up even social drinking when I became a diabetic. Any form of alcohol turns to pure sugar in the bloodstream.
One of my old friends was of the multiple martinis persuasion until his doctor insisted two must be the limit. Then he made two giant martinis.. I haven't had my favorite prosecco for years, since a medication issue. It was fun, but I don't really miss it.
I wish I drank more. I'm like 1 drink every two months, at most, but some days I wouldn't mind getting drunk. I loathe hangovers though and the last time I was that drunk was 31 years ago:)
That last one sums me up! I don’t drink anymore (because I’m not allowed). It really pisses me off. I stopped binging a long, long time ago. I now miss that pleasant little buzz I would feel after only a few sips.
Awe booze - I love it but as I get older I drink less and less because after all, it is just poison. Yet I feel sad because I really enjoy a booze fueled socializing. Which is worse? Booze or loneliness?

ReplyDeleteSome days are definitely better with alcohol
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a shaker that could do the work for me.
ReplyDelete🍸🤬 Yah Bob, but I started screaming "stop shaking already and pour me my 'tini!" 😘
Delete...I haven't had a drive in over 40 years.
ReplyDeleteThe little one drinking is priceless! I’ve seen those precious moments and will always remember them.

The martini glasses topped with carry out lids is priceless!
ReplyDeleteI must confess: I had a heavy shopping day and I bought a bottle of red wine and just drank a glass 🍷😆
ReplyDeleteHaven't we all wished for a to-go martini! LOL
ReplyDeleteThese are great! I may have to...um..."borrow" a couple. 😁
ReplyDeleteOh, and I see that Maddie is out of Gin, again. LOL
ReplyDeleteHahahaha
ReplyDelete'I talk in cursive' OMG I HAVE GOT to use that one!
XOXO
I quit drinking alcohol 30 years ago and have never missed it.

ReplyDeleteIt worked so well for Dino, but that's because I think he faked it much of the time.
ReplyDeleteAwe booze - I love it but as I get older I drink less and less because after all, it is just poison. Yet I feel sad because I really enjoy a booze fueled socializing. Which is worse? Booze or loneliness?
ReplyDeleteI drink very little. One could classify me as a tea toddler, or even coffee toddler.
ReplyDeleteLove these! Snagged several! Dino!!
ReplyDeleteOMG! How did you find my Gin Signal?
ReplyDeleteI've quit the drink as well. Good thing, because if I tried to numb this current reality I'd be drunk for at least 4 years...
ReplyDeleteIsn't that first one Maddie's call sign?!
ReplyDelete@ Tundra Bunny -- Yes and I may have stolen it from his blog, if memory serves. Along with a couple of other ones, too!
DeleteI don't drink either but some days I consider it. lol
ReplyDeleteLOL, drinking a lot is not recommended. I wish I thought of that in my younger days. :)
ReplyDeleteThese are great. I had to stop drinking beer and I do miss a cold one.
ReplyDeleteTalking in cursive, lol.
ReplyDeletei love drinking.... but i am rubbish at hangovers
ReplyDeleteDrinking is a state of identity
ReplyDeleteOh lordy...drinking?!?! I try not too!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy one gin martini. Two at the most. Three I'm under the table. And four I'm under my host.
Talking in cursive - I like that.
ReplyDeleteI hear ya about not drinking but sometimes...It takes a lot of strength to stay sober these days!
So much fun 😂
ReplyDeleteLoved the baby drinking hahaha🤗🥰♥️
I like the martini covers. Those would be handy.
ReplyDeleteGood one, Dino! Especially when my children were little I would often say, "I wish that I drank because I could do with a drink now!"
ReplyDeleteYou always slay with your memes. I love the bat signal since that would be my call.
ReplyDeleteThat's what's wrong with me: I don't drink . . . enough.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
I hardly ever drink alcohol these days but man, sadly, happily, I can relate to almost all of those! Thank you, that was fun
