Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 the people living in my dormatory think that I'm ALWAYS drunk. lol, I wonder what gave them that idea?! no, but seriously, I'm not. I have a few drinks (**of uh... water... you know alchohol is illegal for 18 year olds!**) every now and then, they just happen to always see me walking into my room a little tipsy and think I'm really drunk a lot of times. haha, college life is awesome. my bookshelf is amazing, it's got a secret like dexter's lab only for good clean college fun stuff. : I love how God gave us such an amazing gift which no government of man has the authority to deny to its citizens, no matter what their age!!!

Anastasia13 Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 I was once asked if I was drunk when I started to stumble on the sidewalk by my old dorm once.
Laudate_Dominum Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 you rock. : btw, if the roads are better in a few hours I hope to go to St. Boniface. You gonna be there? And don't think I'm a sissy, I just got back from adoration and on the way home I almost smashed into a cop car because the roads are so slippery. If they ever get around to plowing I'll be comfortable venturing off the Pittsburgh.
Laudate_Dominum Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 oh, and I only have one beer to by name right now. I wish I had some good whiskey right now. It's one of those winter mornings in which it seems all too appropriate.
Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Posted December 4, 2005 yeah I should be there it's cool if you go or not, I mean the slippy roads are fine if it's just the way back (you know, after you've been to mass and all ) but dying on the way there? all the people in heaven would look down on you if you got in on that anticipatory-sacrament carp... :

Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Posted December 4, 2005 yeah, tonight I only had a couple glasses of Irish Cream Liquor, it's only 34 proof but it tasted a lot stronger, probably cause of the thickness of the cream. err... in my imagination of course. this is all hypothetical, it'd be illegal for me to actually have had a bottle of that hidden behind my vast array of religious books.
Laudate_Dominum Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 For some reason I have a craving for Bushmill's black label at the moment.
Guest T-Bone Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 I actually prefer Scotch...I have a hankering for some Glenfidditch 15 year old...yummy. (And a good $10 cigar)
Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Posted December 4, 2005 in this hypothetical world where Im a non-law-abider, I haven't drank around too much so I couldn't give a favorite. I like just some simple vodka or gin mostly (theoretically), Jack Daniels is some real nice stuff, though I sold my bottle of it for $25 bucks (again, hypothetically) haha, I have an away message up on Instant Messenger: "I love praying while drunk. God really sits down with me and has a couple drinks Himself... teaches me how to be a good and holy drunk. This is truly the best way to live." this because my friend was just telling me we should play some sort of drinking game over the break, and I suggested a shot at every Our Father of the Rosary, see who can go the most decades :

Laudate_Dominum Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 dang Al. You're worse than me. I rarely get tipsy, and I never get drunk (on purpose, but it has happened once or twice). Thanks be to God I have an almost supernatural tolerance. :
Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Posted December 4, 2005 I seem to have something like that too, haha, of course I take that more to be a sign from God that I'm allowed to enjoy more <<hypothetically>>
Guest T-Bone Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 (edited) I have a high tolerance, but its not supernatural. It came from years of hard core alcohol abuse. (I had some issues and was self medicating) Now I only occasionally imbibe. PAX The Great and Magnificent T-Bone Edited December 4, 2005 by T-Bone
Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Posted December 4, 2005 well, anyway, my test of whether I've gone too far consists of two things: would I be able to structure out a whole rosary at this point and/or pay attention to a mass if it were being said? and, is my rational mind currently capable of contemplating coherently the mysteries of the faith? i seem to be able to do all that with my supernatural tolerance
Laudate_Dominum Posted December 4, 2005 Posted December 4, 2005 I tend to have clear phases of inebriation. If I stand up and feel a bit light headed, I figure its time to lay off.
Aloysius Posted December 4, 2005 Author Posted December 4, 2005 see I donno, to me (again: theoretical, lol) mere lightheadedness or something isn't the line. the line would be impairing your intellect or inhibitions too much... I don't think of the physical effects being real morally bad unless you're going to be driving, that's part of the fun (trying to maintain your composure is awesome, I actually think it helps me be more aware of keeping my composure during my most sober times!)
