Back in the day, some guys were having 2-3 cocktails, beers, etc. at lunch. Now that's alcoholic behavior for sure.

Sitting on your back porch after a days work enjoying a couple cocktails and a cigar is just relaxing in my eyes.

I never drink in the afternoon
I never drink alone
But I sure do like a drink or two
When I get home

Every evening what I do
I sit here in this chair
I pour myself some whiskey
And watch my troubles vanish into the air

I believe that the issue isn't so much about how much, but rather why you drink.

2 drinks a night, not bad. I think more than 2 cigars a week is a little much though.

That's a motivated for Tuesday for me.

Yeah, I don't see how having two beers a night after work and a couple three on weekends makes you an alcoholic. That's just dumb.

I went in for my yearly wellness exam and he gave me orders to go get my bloodwork done.

That was 5 weeks ago

I may do it next week

frick doctors. They think they know everything. I had my physical recently and he was telling me how my AST and ALT are elevated. I asked him are they high? He just said they shouldn't be in the upper 20s. I looked that shite up I'm fricken fine

Drs say shite to scare you so you keep going and making them money

If that is alcoholism, I guess I am an alcoholic too. And I am fine with that.

Alcoholism is where you are physically dependent on booze. If you dont get DTs or seizures from withdrawles you dont have an issue.
