Title: I didn't drink a beer last night
Post by: rjs246 on January 18, 2006, 05:14:43 PM
It was the first time in a while that I haven't had at least one drink. I feel groggy today and I've got a headache. I was also bored to tears last night.

I feel like these are good signs for my general health.

I drank one beer and only one beer last night.  Because there was only one left in the house.

The only time I don't drink a beer is when I get home a little late and pass out on the couch. My wife calls me a drunk. I call her a bitch.

How lucky for the two of you.

Wait, you watched House of 1000 corpses AND didn't drink last night?!

What are you a masochist?

Yeah, my timing could have been better.

You've seen the lowest of the low. You should probably kill yourself now.

I reserve my drinking mostly for weekends. I usually try to make up for not drinking during the week by binging sometimes.

It just feels weird drinking during the week though unless there's reason* to.

*reason meaning, japanese food, meeting someone at a bar or party/celebration.

You know, gram for gram, alcohol has way more calories than carbohydrates.  You'd be better off with the beer.

I can't remember the last time I had less than two gin and tonics in a 24 hour span.  By the same token, I can't recall the last time I had more than 5.  Possibly 6.

This I call moderation.

I had a couple beers on New Year's Eve, and that was the first alcoholic beverage I had since September.  I'm a big beer fan, but I seriously cut down as part of an overall health kick.  I'm not much for moderation.  Sounds like a great idea, but the implementation is tough for me.

We were going to go out for a few beers and some grub last night, but the places we frequent on Wednesdays were packed with toolboxes wanting to watch the Duke/NCSU game.  So, the wife and I got some take-out Japanese, picked up an 18-pack of Bud Select cans, and watched "Cinderella Man".

Beer and a boxing movie = excellent combo

But dude - there are zero carbs!  Yeah, you've got to burn more calories, but your fat-burning metabolism is using 20-50% more calories / day!

(Of course the carb-hound in me says mmmmm....Guinness - one of the lowest calorie non-lite beers available)
