You're not drinking Geoff? It's all good either way just a question, thought about that after I asked you to grab extra booze for me.
I'm probably gonna have a few beers with everyone tomorrow, but I'm not drinking as a rule. I made an exception for a friends wedding a couple weeks ago, too. And either way, I'm still be more than happy to grab booze for you. I stop in to the pub that I'm a regular at basically every day and have a few soda and limes, so its not like being around alcohol.
I'm a shitty fucking alcoholic, and I'll never be able to drink 'normally'. But total constant absitnence isnt the only alternative to being a fifth a day drunk. Its all about harm reduction.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to say its cool for me to drink and shit, but I'm realistic about the world, diabetics eat an occasional candy bar, it is what it is.
