At one point, long ago I drank for the wrong reasons. Gave it up because it interfered with living life on my terms. Now, when people drink, I'm fine with it if they do it for the right reasons, pleasure. Too much alcohol, as you've illustrated, is unpleasant at best.
I found your site by way of RV living. I use my van for camping, share your views of alcohol, and feel that following Bikram's path makes life chase me, rather than vice versa. Interesting.
Great blog.
