To demolish a full bottle of vodka (37.5% vol), but tonight is looking like that night and I still feel sober.

In company over a day of partying probably more alcohol but on my own being a sad basturt in the house I tend to have an off switch but perhaps not this evening as mentioned.

No plans to join AA (not the automotive mob), yet. Classed as binge drinking I suppose but I'll wake up tomorrow fresh and ready to face another day messing about with unix scripts and keeping hackers out of my servers.

Boozing cos I get bored of an evening unless I have female company, what's you drinking pattern?
 
When are you and your banjo coming to Rothesay for a jam session ??

Coffee first thing in the office, Bottle of juice at lunchtime, water and tea in the in between times.

Usually squash when I'm at home.

Last alcoholic drink was Saturday.

:D
 
Lately I keep meaning to have a booze free evening but never get round to it.
 
actually had a dry night Monday & Tuesday. I could feel it calling me which was worrying.

I had a couple of pints last night. They tasted good.

I get worried if I clear a bottle of Scotch in a week, a bottle in a night scares me.
 
I'm always too scared of becoming a middle class alcoholic to drink much at home. We will have the odd glass of G&T or a Whiskey, but that's it unless we treat ourselves on a weekend.

l did a 3 month project away from home as a permie and a few of us stayed in the same hotel - it was so so easy to get into the habit of hitting the bar for a beer straight away, then getting changed before another couple etc, so I really try and limit it now.
 
Your pattern is that of an alcoholic. Get yourself checked. You don't have to quit necessarily, just get the right support and cut back.
