What, ale? Frothy smooth and foamy like whipped cream but earthy.
(I had to look that up just now so I guess not)
What?! You don't drink ale?! That's almost criminal. Then again, you seem like the single malt scotch with cigar type. I already have good scotch though.
August 2, 2014 is the last time I drank. Bet you didn't know that. But I bet you do know it's bad when the date is a permanent etch. And there isn't a day that goes by I don't want a drink.
Aged scotch is absolutely correct, room temperature—nailed it. My favorite remedy.. Death, bad mail, rainy day, can't sleep, sore neck etc etc etc etc etc ain't nothin a double can't fix.
Now I know. Yeah, definitely can see how that date gets etched permanently. My indulging is kept very limited. Good on you, alcohol is a tough one.
I could feel it, you are a scotch guy. I haven't touched my scotch in about a couple years.
People who know me on the other side of this virtual realm we've created have heard me say at least once 'if you ever see me with a bottle in my hand, stay away. Whatever it is, it's really really bad and you need to leave me alone.'
I stopped one time for 10 years, 11 months. Did that three months after my 21st birthday. I'm just not good at it NineClaws. I fuckin suck at it. I have issues—twisted points of view like buy four 1/2 pints so they don't see you with a 5th. Wake up in strange places, once in a whole other state!.. Don't remember the plane ride or airport or anything. No idea where I am or how I got there, how I'm gonna get where I'm going and who these people are. 'Where's my truck?'
All that and I suck at it so bad all I'm concerned about is how I can't believe I passed out with whiskey in the bottle. I should stop now.
Ahhh, yeah, that's intense.
This I get, although it's not been alcohol for me, I know this way of seeing things:
I hear where you're coming from with this, the struggle, the distorted perceptions, the continual craving. Do any of us get to live in this world without being shattered in one or several ways? I doubt it.
Yeah I read the rest of the story too,, sounds like it can fix you real good so much so you won't know who you are. 🤣 @dandays
Its great that you keep off this stuff. We'd love to see you here more often.
Not to worry @sofs-su, it's taken a few decades to figure it out but I did before anyone got hurt, even I know I don't like me on alcohol. Nowadays I get just as loud, take advantage of the situation by being just as rude which is rewarded if 10-fold, and piss equally the same at any pub and all I'm drinking is water. Fascinating.
Haven't woke up in a strange place or had to apologize for something I don't remember saying or anything.
All that maters is that you've figured that out for yourself before you did any damage to yourself. Sending you and your lovely wife hugs and loads of love.
