That Demon Liquid
Okay, that's it. I'm swearing off drinking for a long time. Over the last month, I have had more to drink than I have had in the last year. That would be 8 glasses of wine. 3 glasses one night, 3 glasses another night, and 2 glasses tonight. In fact, that might be more than I've had to drink in the last 2 years. Yes, it's true. I am the world's cheapest date.
Nonetheless, after tonight's 2 glasses of wine, I nearly got sick (fortunately a Gelusil tablet and some fresh air helped it pass). By the end of the evening (it may be late afternoon for most of my readers, but it's after 10 pm here in London), I was feeling nauseated. This may have been connected to the fact that all I had to eat while imbibing was some hors d'oeuvres, but still. No more drinks for me until at least the holiday party, and maybe not even then.

Ok, do you have verifiable proof that you're the world's cheapest date? I've called the IRS Audit Department to start poring over the records of your recent dates. They'll get back to you.

I tend to limit my drinking to the holidays too. Who knew Arbor day, Columbus day, Bastille day, Commonwealth day, Susan B. Anthony day, Ukranian independence Day, John Cusack day, Yom Kippur, assorted equinoxes and daylight savings times would take on such meaning.
