I always knew the drinks I made at home were stronger than the ones from bars, but until recently I didn't know just how much stronger. Usually I just turn the rum/vodka/soco/tequila (vomit) over for a few seconds into my glass, then add a little diet coke/orange juice/cranberry juice/etc, and that's that. But out of curiosity, the last couple times I've actually measured how much alcohol I put in with a shot glass... and, on average, I have 4-5 shots per drink. In general, I think this is a good thing, because there's no point in wasting calories on mixers, and it's a lot cheaper to get drunk at home off two drinks than to buy 8 at Maloney's for the same level of intoxication. The only problem is I go from sober to drunk is 2.5 seconds. Last night, for example, I only had 2 rum and cokes before we went out. However, since 2 Andree-made rum and cokes = 10 shots, I was definitely a drunkypants before we left the apartment... drunkypants enough to cut open my finger while prying a composite out of the wall with a butter knife, carry the composite back to the apartment, then booty call a guy from the house to whom the composite belonged to my apartment with the composite in plain view.
I hope nobody from that house reads this journal. If you're reading this and think the house I'm referring to is yours... don't worry, we're gonna give your composite back soon.
