A Call to Alcohol (Saturday drinking thread)

[dashook]

Come one, come all.

I'm drunky. We've been at brewery for a local thing all day and I thought eating would help but it's not.

Eta: my chinese style tacos were amazing though

I had a curry steak with blue cheese slaw and a 5 spice.pork

My husband had a general tso taco and a kimchi burger taco

[bighair12]

I just sat down with half a glass of cab after my bike ride. I smell like I have been camping with all the smoke in the air!

It was really good

I have a test sweet potato casserole beer. It's delicious

[helloerrbody]

We went to the pool today where I had a tallboy. Another beer after at home and moving on to red wine now.

Just laying on the couch watching shows for the rest of the night!

Sounds like your H and mine would get along.

The kids are at their grandparents' for the night so:

I'm drinking!! And watching tv. Cause that's how I party.

Stay tuned to see if I get drunk for the first time ever.

I'm rooting for you.

But also...what?

[rooskie]

We have moved on to the horse track. Some old dude is rolling around in his power wheel chair, eating popcorn, and smiling like he won the lottery. DH said he wants to be like him when he grows up.

I'm shitty and still whooping ass at cards even though my husband is clearly cheating. He should be embarrassed.

I've been buzzed once but never drunk.

Any particular reason?  Or just circumstances?  (genuinely curious, only if you want to talk about it)

I can't help but notice that your grammar and spelling also remain impressively intact.

I've been very, very drunk many times.

Pro tip: Less food, more alcohol.

VODKAAAA. And pizza. And Harry Potter.

Don't be jealous, y'all.

That will change, I'm sure. I start off ok then it suddenly goes downhill

Waiting around for the show to start at a free concert at the park. I had to sneak my alcohol in because it's apparently a dry event. I hate diluting my vodka but what else can ya do.

Mybhusband just humble bragged all the weight he has lost from starting exercising a month ago.

Don't get me wrong...very happy for him. Just reminded me that I need to lose weight and now I feel icky about myself.


Eta: sorry for the womp womp.

I get that. MH works about 20hrs less than I do a week and he constantly spends 2+ hrs at the gym on any given day. I'm lucky to get 30mins. He's in great shape...and it's annoying.

I understand completely. H lost a bunch of weight a couple years ago. For some reason, it seems like guys have an easier time losing weight.

Why is that?

Do you remember the commercials for some weight loss drug but the cartoon woman dropped a pound and the guy dropped like 3 sizes?

My hubby stops drinking soda and loses like 30 lbs. I don't even drink soda and I can't do that. It sucks!

[wannabmama]

Before our wedding MH gave up 90% of all sugar and lost 30lbs, I did, too (plus stated running and ate like a freaking bird) and I lost 8lbs...in twice as long.

I have a thyroid that is borderline underactive so whenever I gain, I keep. On the flip side, He gains muscle like crazy.

[bighair12]

MH is 30 lbs pounds lighter than when we met. It makes me crazy. Tall skinny man... I will break his ankles.

I feel you. I don't think I've ever been drunk. I've been buzzed plenty of times but I had a really high alchol tolerence when I was in college so I wasn't able to get "drunk" even when I tried.

Lol. MH was a wrestler so he drops weight extra quickly. I'm about an inch taller than him too, it's hard to feel "little and cute" (luckily he's pretty built so I don't feel like Godzilla next to him).

[ceejay]

A couple months ago MH started eating healthier and exercising regularly, and he's been able to loose over 20 pounds in about 2.5 months.

I'm really proud of him but it's been crazy how quickly he was able to loose the weight (though only 2ish pounds per week so still at a healthy rate).
