  "ear corn" ?? 

I actually said I was going to quit drinking for good, but to hell with that. Give me another 5 hours sir and I shall be back on this thread drunk as a skunk in a trunk.

I wish I would have noticed this thread last night    Oh, I see you didn't post it until two hours after I went to bed.  No matter, I'll make a special effort to get good an buzzed and be back tonight.

We can talk about important stuff and make brilliant observations

I often rank my meals or drinks on a 1 to 10 basis.  the can of steel reserve 211 I had on an empty stomach last night was a 10 and so was the coachman style spaghetti I had afterwords.  and the nap at 8 at night I had after that

Well, I'm back. So far I've sank 4 bottles of Spitfire ale, 2 bottles of Carlsberg Export and I'm now onto my second Jim Beam & Coke.

I just found out my grandfather has died of cardiac failure. He had a fall about two weeks ago, but was totally fine. My dad told me he passed away peacefully. Tonight I am drinking to him (pretty mch drowning my sorrows), I want to dedicate this song to him:

My condolences on your loss, Circus.  Even if, as a non-drinker, I should probably not be posting in this thread.

I haven't been drunk in over a year (New Years Eve, 2008).

Last night a drank a six-pack (of light beer), but spread it over about 6 hours while playing poker.

I usually don't post when I drink.  I watch movies instead. 

I drink more than the average person, but I've learned to drink to the point where I get pleasantly buzzed, then go to bed.  Since my late 20s I've had no more hangovers, vomiting, blackouts, doing stupid stuff I regret in the morning.  I'm fortunate; some of my drinking buddies from that period went on to become full-fledged alcoholics.

Functioning alcoholics can be fine people and lead fulfilling lives.  Many others will become horrible people when they drink and ruin their own lives, and the lives of those around them.  I think RC's one of the former types.  I don't judge you, but I do wish you the best, and hope the beast won't get the better of you.

I think I'm starting to become the type that ruins my own and others lives...

I'm mildly, pleasantly inebriated right now.  

I make the same mistake every time...always seeking a Dulcinea in a world of Aldonzas...but is it a mistake if my pain leaves the world a better place?

"And the world will be better for this -
that one man, scorned and covered with scars;
Still strives, with that last ounce of courage,
to reeeeeeach the unreachable star!"

Still strives, with that last ounce of courage,
to reeeeeeach the unreachable star!" 

Aye.  I have always been as Don Quixote de la Mancha, a shining knight displaced, ready to take the sorrows of the world onto my own shoulders to alleviate the sufferings of others.  At times it's the greatest feeling in the world; at others, it's like dying again and again.  I've talked to therapists about it.  But I'll not change.  I'll happily die a hundred times like this if it means leaving one person's life better than I found it.

Maybe I don't understand, but I hope things look up, RC, Circus, and anybody else out there feeling low.....

Circus, my condolences on your grandfather.  

I suspect you've got a long way to go before you start ruining lives... you're young and you're pushing the limits.  People tend to pull back as they get older.  For better and for worse.  We can tell you're basically a good guy... except when you put on the Catholic schoolgirl's uniform and start eating moss, that's just creepy...

Quite pleasantly buzzed right now, but I'm out of beer    Time to brush my teeth and go to bed.

This seems so darned philosophical to me at the moment:

When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now.
The child is grown, the dream is gone.
I have become comfortably numb.

Ah well, nighty night.
