On Feb. 23rd I turned 48 (no gifts are necessary) and I went to a club
to watch a band. Ordered a margarita of which I drank half, then
ordered a Jack & Coke which I also did not finish. After a little while
I had a stomach ache which lasted into the next day. Now I'm no
lightweight but it is clear to me that I can't drink alcohol any more
since this has happened the last few times I had a drink (which wasn't
very often in the last few years). Not to encourage illicit behavior,
but these days a few bongs are much easier to handle than alcohol. Any
of you other real men out there having the same problem?

What has me concerned is that I like to watch live music, and would
like to participate in open mic jams, but will the bar owners ask me to
leave if all I order is a couple of sodas? I expect a lot of teasing,
but I'm serious.

If your worried about appearance just have a club soda w/a lemon twist.
Cost ya $2 and looks like your drinking. I usually have a beer .. maybe 2
then switch to sprite. Just don't care about getting blitzed anymore. I had
a bowl a couple of weeks ago .. was fun but no biggie. I think it's the age
thing. As you get older you learn what it takes to have fun and what it
means to be a "real man." Definitely being a drunk isn't a part of either of
them. No matter what .. move to the beat of your own drummer and *** the
peer pressure. You'll live longer, won't worry about a DUI and have allot
more fun.
