Not much anymore, I partied way toooo much in the early days, you name it I did it, and now with raising kids I kinda wanted to set a good example, I don't have alcohol in the house, and when I drink if at all, it's away.
But lately I've acquired this taste for really old scotch.
HEY! the kids are almost outta da house.

I don't want to set a bad example for the kids either. So I share the beerz with them.

I drink 3-4 times per week, but usually don't pour my first until 7:30 or so.

We're all adults around here (my house), so yes. Just as soon as I walk in the door.

I guess it saddens me that these days it seems like the first thing I do when I walk in the door is reach for a drink instead of kissing the wife or playing with the dog. That doesn't bode well for the future.

OMG, I'm in a forum with a bunch of non-drinkers and do-gooders!!!!!! Just Kidding!!! Sorry to go against the grain of things, but I love an icecold beer, when I get home from work, maybe even a few. (We are in the middle of summer here!!) Usually I am a beer or red wine drinker!!!

OMG!!! Me too!!! What a coincidence. We have SO much in common in addition to a distaste for the name, Russell. I grew up thinking "I'd never name a dog Russell" or own a Jack Russell terrior, whereas I'm sure you grew up thinking, "I'd never marry a guy named Russell!" My alcoholism doesn't have a set pattern, except to say that I am slowly becoming a beer AND wine snob. At the New Year's Eve party, a neighbor and I have conspired to throw an elite wine party. Each of maybe 8 invited couples would be directed to bring a 'good' bottle of wine, which will be served from numbered brown wrappers. If it's a good meal at home, I like to open some wine. If its a sloppy dinner out, I'll have a beer if they serve some good ones. If its slightly better than chips and wings, I'd have some wine. If I start at dinner, I usually can't stop the rest of the evening. For example, I can't stand the idea of not finishing a bottle of fresh wine. But I'm proud to say I've never, to my knowledge, stumbled into the bedroom and pleaded, "Ahhh, c'mom!!! Wake up! You promised!!!" If its business entertainment, or I finish a round of golf and don't have any family obligations that evening, it's Katy bar the door...... I don't mind quaffing a beer or two not long before bedtime, to dull the senses and let the mind downshift a few gears. Thank goodness my prostate isn't enlarged and I can fully void my bladder before bedtime. I realize this is a lot of information. Probably more than you asked for.

That doesn't bode well for the future. OMG. You can't see them. Wait, now that I'm at work I can't see them either. Last night, at home, when I pulled this thread up....Whiskey had a white box at the end of his post. Smoothish, and rounded corners looked exactly like a Chiclet.(you had that part right). Then I saw you put one on, and I thought wth? did I miss a memo? What do those mean? I look up to the "smiley bar" and there it is, all the way to the left, right next to this dude.( ) I was able to choose it, and it still showed up for me as a small blank white box. I thought it was supposed to do or say something, and my pc was "dropping" it. In the text field, it said "sad" that why I said, "what's sad about..... Considering, that this is taking place in this thread, I will assure, I had had only one 1/2 of a beer at the time. when I go home tonight, if it's still that way, I'll do a screen capture.

I've concluded that becoming a beer and wine snob is the natural progression of things. Once you've gone down that road it's hard to go back. It's a lot like golf courses in that regard.

I'm sure it can be stopped, at least the wine and beer part. I'm thinking along the lines of end-stage renal disease.
