Speedos and Drinking

After my last post I thought I should address some of the comments but mainly emails which I received on this – but we aren’t here just to talk about that so I’m going to put some random speedo pics in here as well to make it more fun.

First off, thanks Wayne for your comments (which actually inspired this post). Perhaps I overstated my drinking habits because a lot of the comments I got were pretty full on and made it out as if I had some problem that if not corrected would end my life as I know it.

So let me be clear on my drinking habits. I’ve never had a DUI, I’ve never been in a fight, I’ve never got abusive (I’m a happy drunk), I don’t think I’ve lost any friends because of it and it has never gotten me in any trouble.

Where my idea for backing off came after 4 or 5 nights of being hammered. Again I didn’t do anything wrong or get into any trouble, even after 700ml of Scotch I don’t get hungover unless I wake up early. But, I feel as though I’m being less productive because of it. I’m probably spending a fair bit of money on it as well but mainly to make me do more work is the motivation.

One other thing is that I don’t need very much of an incentive to have a big night – today I had a wicked day on the mountain with a mate of Mike’s and Mike joined us for a couple of hrs this arvo. Mike couldn’t cum over for some play time tonight so I had the house to myself and I cooked up a nice feed. Normally I would have had a drink or 8 and gone harmlessly to bed. That is the kind of thing I want to cut back on…. and I did no probs.

Aren’t you guys proud of me?

I do thank you for your comments and emails though – listening to different ideas is what gets us thinking.

I have to thank Jack over at Speedo Jack (click here to visit his blog – I like the name of the blog).
