I'm guessing that the huge space that ends up at the bottom of my recent posts is from me using Firefox, 'cause I haven't changed anything else. The huge blank area eventually goes away, I guess.
Well, my recent drunken adventure may well be the end of my heavy drinking days. The setting: Oktoberfest in Hermann, MO. The alcohol (in order): One bottle of wine, One Jager shot, 5 or 6 beers, one more bottle of wine, Jager shots, more beer. It started out at the Stone Hill Winery, continued to the campground, then downtown to a few bars and a beergarden. In the crux of my binge, I tried to bring bottle #2 of wine into bar #2, and got kicked out. So I chugged the whole half-bottle of wine. Problem solved! More shots!! Shortly after, I was told I stumbled and fell into a ditch. I probably would have passed out there if I was not with a couple of friends and my drunken Amy to pull me out. From there, back to the camp, passed out on the ground. Eventually to the tent. The next morning I felt like I had died, been allowed to rot for a few days, and then brought back to life. I wanted to puke so bad. My stomach fucking hated me. But there were too many fucking people around! Guess I'm puke shy, too. Amy had to drive back to C-town, where I slept most of the day like a worthless sack of shit.
Anyway, I vowed that day to not get drunk until Halloween, which was successful. Had a show in KC, partied with Amy's bro. But I haven't had the desire to drink more than a couple since the Hermann Incident. I think I'll keep that relatively sober streak rollin' for now.
