The wife and kids are away - I am drinking until I'm stupider than I usually am
Port's Hop-15 and their 2nd Anniversary Ale

Both at 10%

Both are fucking me up.

I'd post pictures, but I'm too blitzed for that now.

Time to 420

2. Molson doesn't have 10% ABV
You're gonna have to work four times as hard as me to reach Oblivion

11. I'm drinking a ton of water
I always drink 1-2 pints per hour

Dieters would trip if they knew how healthy that made them

10. I have a sore tooth. It's not good. I'm marinating it in beer.
I should probably use something more pure, like vodka.

12. Yes - pure vodka, especially the 99 proof stuff would probably help
Seriously - no bacteria would live and you could dip cotton balls in the stuff and apply it and it would work.

13. I just checked. I have no vodka.
I do, however, now have a brandy-soaked cotton ball in my mouth, thanks to you.

Yes, it's probably infected (I think an old filling broke, leaving an unprotected hole in my tooth), and yes, I need to call the dentist, but Monday will be the soonest I can get in, and it's really starting to bother me now.

19. I'm calling the dentist's office first thing Monday.
They usually have a few emergency slots open. If he agrees it's infected, I can get an Rx for antibiotics until the real repair work can be done. Unfortunately, a broken 30-year-old filling probably means a cracked tooth, which probably means no hope for a root canal to save the tooth.

I let it sit in the cotton ball for a while, and am now simply drinking a glass of brandy. All I had left for brandy was E&J, and wow! It's a disappointment after a few months of Courvoisier cognac. I used to like E&J just fine until the good cognac spoiled me.

14. You can get THAT drunk on just BEER? What an amateur.
(Not that I'm espousing the use of hard alcohol like, say, Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey, or anything like that.)

16. 2 x 22 ozers of 10% ABV = it works!

15. I'm sticking with white wine
thanks. Costco Sauvignon Blanc. It's OK. I will have to find something better next time.

:beer:

I like enjoying a light buzz w/o the next day leftovers. :P

It's sweet you miss the Tavernlets. :D
