Why Being Drunk Is Awesome

I need to get some posts in for this month.

So here goes a worthless one.

I had 3 pitchers to myself this evening.

Just as a little frame of reference.

But so many people bad mouth substances. Cigarettes, alcohol, other drugs.

Not me. I figure as long as you can do your own thing and keep others out of danger then you're cool. I definitely live in the "whatever you want to do as long as it doesn't harm others" camp.

So back to the title of this post. Let's create a list.

Why Being Drunks Is Awesome (in no particular order):

-Inhibitions are thrown out the window. You can say whatever the eff you want whenever the eff you want to. You know why? Cause you've been drinking. And people know that. So they

-Excuse you. I don't know how many times people have told me I've done something stupid while drinking and not remember. But in their book it's fine because they all know that you were trashed at that point and couldn't control yourself which brings me to...

-Great excuse. Well, I guess it's not great, but it's easy to say (after a night of effing up) "OMG I was so drunk. I'm pretty sure I blacked out."

-Everyone (not just women) look so much better. It's like your brain relaxes on the alcohol and so does everywhere else. When sober a 6/10 might not be too enticing. But pump some alki in to it and all of a sudden that 6 becomes an 8. I'll be loving those beer goggles.

-Truth Serum. Love getting people drunk who can hardly hold in their secrets. Why? Bec ause by the end of thd drinking session you're learning things you shouldn't have even known.

-Blacking out. Maybe this isn't for everyone. But trying to piece together certain things from the night before sometimes makes for a good time. All the investigation - where was I during this point of the day during which day. Sometimes it's fun to put things together like a giant life puzzle.

-Liquid courage. Honestly I don't know if I'd be married right now if it wasn't for liquid courage. Liquid courage got me holding hands with the wife even bef0re we were "dating". Liquid courage has never let me down. In fact, if I could thank liquid courage for my life I would. Someone should come up with a mascot or something for liquid courage.

-It's a pain pill in a few drinks. Screw advil. Give me 3 beers all day for whatever is ailing me. And luckily for me there isn't much ailing often.

I'm sure there's more but I'm starting to go cross eyed looking at this screen. But for now, that's good enough. In conclusion - so far, being drunk is awesome.
