Alcohol is the anesthesia by which we endure the operation of life.

I think i drink too much.

I enjoy a nice glass of wine or boutique beer on the weekends - something to help take the edge off. Over a nice dinner or even just watching the game, I enjoy having a cold one. It's just that I need to pace myself, I need to turn down a couple before I have a few more - I think lately I have been having a wee bit too much, not enough to ruin the night, but enough for me to need berocca, panadol and vitamins the next morning.

But one thing I did enjoy, at the cost of being pained at anything loud and bright, was while I was still good and ... happy, I started facebooking. Oh how fun writing on people's walls when you are ... happy. It's like bumping into old friends at clubs and bars when you are ... well on your way - you feel the love.

But what goes up must come down - and as I slowly started to remember how I posted on facebook like a mad man, like most things done whilst on that sweet sweet poison, I thought - oh no what did I write... I just hope I didn't agree to do anything, make any promises and I especially hope I didn't become BFF with anyone!
