I never liked that song, because its about alcoholics and abuse, and it always comes back to me, whenever I'm drunk, like I am now.
All my life I've equated drunk with obnoxious. Loss of motor control, and sluring I can live with. If I were to discover that I became obnoxious when drunk, I think I would give it up completely. So far, it doesn't seem to have happened, but I always worry.

I used to work with a guy whose name (Theron McDaniel) could be rearranged to spell "Mean to children". If you turn the "W" in my last name upside down you can rearrange my name to spell "I be same me".
I was struggling with wget for a couple of days. openSSL had me in a "death spiral" (I needed DJGPP, BC (WTF?), Perl and a couple other things -- I would have been working for days more) until I found that an installation .exe with the binaries was available.
I was *very* happy when I got it all working. I came home and slept for ten hours. I feel pretty good right now (4:46PM EDT -- yikes! It's almost 5PM already!! That's what happens when you go to sleep at about 4AM). I'm probably scaring you more...
Oh well, I'm going for my Master's degree and there isn't really such a thing as time off when you're a student -- except for grudgingly grabbed exercise periods.

Date: 2005-07-02 02:15 pm (UTC)Personally, I always get very very silly and happy when drunk. Then sometimes I get a headache, and then I crash. That appears to be my pattern (unless I'm drinking mead, which I can drink all day without headache or crashing).
It doesn't sound like you have anything to worry about, but if you're concerned, stay away from tequila.
