Good luck
Is it just me or am I the only one who thinks there isn’t a clear line between “20 dry days in 18 years” and “teetotal”. In fact, I think the line is extremely blurred and the blur covers the entire spectrum of alcohol consumption.

Even though I like to have the odd beer or six every so often, with me, it's not a habit. It's something I only do in a social setting. Sometimes, I end up having only one dry night in a week, but other times, I can go for more than a month without a drink. Being in my 30's, my alcohol tolerance has gone down somewhat, but if I pace myself, I can become 'socially lubricated' quicker before I get that ‘spaced-out’ feeling.

Anyway, good luck!

Except me ;) I'm a natural loon :-P

@kaol
Have you tried getting up at exactly the same time each day? I’ve heard it’s supposed to set your body clock so you fall asleep when it’s bedtime. I used to do that when I was a teenager, but the demands of University social-life put a stop to that.

@CHCB
I find I have the ability to act drunk if I’m sober when I’m amongst the ‘socially drunk’. But maybe its because I go with the flow, or maybe its just coz I’m a ghetto-bonkerlicious natural loon.
