there are compulsive drinkers and alchoholics, i am not sure which is worse.. I like a drink, it relaxes me, esp if i have had to deal with a stressful situation, i do not like being drunk tho.. its nasty... tho, i had a night in a rum bar and the results were amusing for everyone, i pinched someones boots and would not give them back, i ran away and danced a lot..lol, thats the kind of drinking i like, cheeky drinking. and I feel great the day after..
