We're doing surveys at work. I got curious how the forum members would break down in some areas.

Lex, is the poll over? I can't get it to work.
Or maybe I am too drunk.
JUST KIDDING

Well, it depends on if we are talking in real life or STJ life
Two very different answers.

It's funny to me that this poll has started. I've been a pretty steady drinker for many years, but six months ago I woke up one morning and decided it was time to take a break for awhile. Thought I might make sure that if I went for a few days that I wouldn't be seeing any pink platypuses running around. Somehow I've been stone cold sober for over 6 months and am enjoying it. My wife drinks 2 or 3 most nights. My social scene is still very alcohol oriented. I may have a couple on any given day, as after all this has been self imposed. I have just chosen not to indulge right now. I've even gone to two pro baseball games this past week and had lemonade. I will even go to a bar with friends and have non-alcoholic beer. Now if I was down at Shipwreck I doubt that this nonsense would continue!
BTW_ I would normally have been in the more than 2 drinks a day column.

When you say "Drink once or twice monthly" does that mean drink as in drink a lot one or twice a month or have one drink once or twice a month?

For me it's weather related-now that it's getting warmer (some days!) it's nice to sit on the back steps with a beer or couple glasses of wine and enjoy the sunshine. But cold weather months? Forgeddaboutit! B That's why on St. John I get off the plane and go directly to the free rum stand-good thing I live in a state where it's below 60 7 months out of the year

I wonder if everyone is being honest. A couple of glasses of wine is just part of cooking dinner. That doesn't count the drink before bedtime. I guess I'm a total drunk and didn't realize it. I feel fine in the morning and don't have a hangover. WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN???
(Now I didn't drink the last 2 nights because I didn't feel like it.) Going to the Astros game today and those overpriced Bud Lites are so good at a ballgame.

Back in the "old days" when I was new to the Internet, I could put away an entire bottle of wine just while chatting on AOL! And I did that several times a week! Can't do that any more though... I got acid reflux and I got over AOL!
I didn't see it as being a drunk.
