Haha, screw THAT, my evenings out do not include babysitting a bunch o' drunken monkeys. Not anymore....Call a cab. =)
A hale and hearty "Hell Yeah!". Know your limitations. Comport yourself with a degree of dignity. Personally, I'm a beer snob. Anything less than a decent micro brew isn't making it past my luscious lips. So it's bloody rare if I ever have more than 2 drafts in a night. A night out at a bar/club consisting of at least 4 hours. When I socialize with my buddies, it's to do just that, not get FUBARed.
For those interested, here's a basic rule of thumb in monitoring your BAC.
- Beer - one 12 oz. glass per hour. (Unless it's over proofed.)
- Wine - one 4 oz. glass per hour.
Hard Liquor - one ounce per hour.
I was a bartender in my younger years and this is just a handy way to keep track of what you're consuming and how it will affect you. Alcohol is concentrated differently depending on the type of beverage you're imbibing. I could've posted some link to BAC calculator, but who's got time or inclination to use that when you're hanging out with your crew? Bottom line; be responsible, know your limits, and if you're wobbling as you roll out the door? Hands the damn keys to someone else and hail a cab. Stay safe, play nice, & share your toys w/ others... [:D] Bella
