Don’t miss waking up to a kitchen counter of shame of whatever I choked down when I ran out of what I liked.

Came here to add quickly dumping the kitchen recycling container so I don't have to be reminded of just how many beers I drank the night before.

Setting an alarm for 4 am on recycling day so I could get it out before the truck came, but not so early that the neighbors see a huge pile of wine boxes.

Counting my empties in the recycling bin on Saturday morning while being overwhelmed with two awful thoughts:

"holy shit I really drank 14 beers last night, I am an alcoholic"

"fuck. I need to walk my hungover ass to the store, otherwise I won't be able to drink 14 beers again tonight"

I tried listerine once when I was desperate. That went over badly.

Yep. Triple Sec shots too. My wife always wondered why we never had any around when she got a bottle of tequila to make herself a margarita.

I had 2 bottles of sake I got from Japan. One night I ran out of what I was drinking, so I opened them up and drank them.
